A team mate published a workbench to server. I need to make a change to it, but when I went to download the fmw from server, it downloads a json file instead. I can log into the hosting server and copy the file from the repository, but can't figure out how to get the workbench to download from the server web page.

Hi there,I want to trigger a workspace with the function FMEServer.submitJob, but get the a 422-error:with the response:What's wrong with the path? Do I have to escape those slashes?Cheers, Maria

I have a repository inside of FME Server for a handful of users to access and run a couple of workbenches as needed. Is there a way to require them to input an email address prior to running the workbench so that they'll be notified of results when the workbench completes?  I can include an emailer transformer inside of the workbench and make their email address a required input, but I would prefer to utilize the FME Server notifications is possible

What happens when FME Server or the Service is offline for 4 hours. I assume the Directory Watcher on FME Server will be missing all file changes that happened in those 4 hours?

Good morning, When creating the publication, I select the smtp protocol and type in my email username. Then validate. for some reason, this is not working on my server. It confirmed the DNS. Any thoughts? It keeps telling me that it cant find the publisher. @LauraAtSafe , @RyanAtSafe.

Hi,I'm fairly new to FME so please bear with me.I have setup a workbench that that creates a simple HTML report (few stats from a MapInfo Tab) for a colleague. I am using "@DateTimeFormat(@DateTimeNow(),%B %d %Y" as my fanout parameter to name the html file by the date it was created each time the work bench is run. My emailer is setup with the body text as "Click <a href="$(DestDataset_HTML)">here</a>". Before I added the fanout option to name each output my hyperlink would link directly to the output file but since adding this it just links to the output folder. Can anyone tell me why that is and how I might be able to get around it?Cheers!Phil

Hi friends~,I have an Emailer transformer to send email as part of the processing.The parameter setup is as followss;- Email Service: Generic SMTP- Encryption: NoneNow it gives warning message as follows;Emailer: <class 'smtplib.SMTPDataError'>: (554, '5.5.2 No valid recipients').My understanding is that the relay server of the SMTP is in place.Any experience or suggestion would be appreciated.Thanks ~David

Hi Folks,I am trying to connect with emailer with a very simple workbench basically, to test the emailer for now. I have filled in all the attributes and move ahead to Gmail Connection. When I allow access FME to read, write emails, it pops-up with a window "Web Service Connection" and asks to copy the code and switch the application and paste it there. I can't understand what exactly is 'switching the application' and what is the next step. I have shared the attachment.

I have a workspace that runs on FME server and watches a directory to process the incoming files.So far this works fine.With the help of FMEServerLogfileRetrievers I collect the log output of the conversion jobs, condense them and now have to send them via email. I have tested this with a (clarification: a different) workspace that runs as a job submitter, but it (clarification: the email sending through the workspace running as a notfication service) seems not to run as a notification service.While when uploading it as Job Submitter, I can select email [TEXTLINE] as Post Data,this is not possible with the Notifier:The __send_email Topic is tested and works.<a id="17351" href="/storage/attachments/17351-wkt-import-submitter.fmw">wkt-import-submitter.fmw</a>Have I omitted something obvious?

The mail address I want to send mails to is in de format [name]@[subdomain].[domain].com. The emailer shows the following error. Is this a known bug? Emailer: <class 'smtplib.SMTPDataError'>: (503, '5.5.2 Need rcpt command') Thanks in advance

I'm struggling to get Publications to work on an AWS RedHat instance. I have opened up port 7125 and the server does not care if I send it emails - these eventually come back with this smtp error:  Diagnostic-Code: smtp; The recipient server did not accept our requests to connect.   I am looking at email.properties in a FME 2016 installation where email publication works and it has this in it: #Remote Manager Connection InfoEMAILRM_HOST=localhost EMAILRM_PORT=4555 EMAILRM_USER=root EMAILRM_PASSWORD= **********I am wondering if this is related.   So far I have tried on ports 7125 (default) and also on 25 (hail mary). Both are open in AWS, but running with either config leaves me sitting sadly watching topic monitoring and eventually getting notifications when my sending email server finally gives up.If anhy of this sounds familiar to you, please chime in as I am not sure what to do next.Thanks, Fuad.

Is it be possible to setup fme scheduler this way that it is executed on given interval but only if previous job submitted by that scheduler has already finished? For example lets’s say that we have scheduler setup to run once every hour. And for some reason job took more then 1 hour. I would like to execute next job once the previous one is finished and probably shift next submissions times.

I have essentially the same problem described here: https://knowledge.safe.com/questions/30724/in-fme-server-how-to-pass-parameters-to-the-subscr.htmlThe solution described there about running a workspace from a parent isn't all that scalable and it seems like there must be a better way. I thought I had a solution when I added a published parameter called nm_email_to to the job. I tested a failure and success condition and they had worked, but I had manually triggered those tests. It doesn't appear that the scheduled jobs pass the email_to to the subscriber in the same way that a manual run does. I can see the data in the scheduled job under Request Data > Notification Manager Directives in the directives parameter. It looks like this:[{"name":"email_to","value":"email@example.com"}]Is there any way to get this data into the subscriber such that it'll send to the email set up in the workspace?Also, I want to do this in a consistent

After running a workspace download service I cant find how to get the download url in my custom web application.  Starting the workspace: GET to http://server/fmedatadownload/repo/workspace.fmw Getting transformation status: GET to http://server/fmerest/v2/transformations/jobs/id/" . $id But then finally, how do I get the download link to display in my app? It does deliver with email and there it appears just as expected.

I am trying to add file reference to a job submitter from an email that come is through the notification service. The email comes in here:Resources /System /temp/emailattachments/20180323010138-tgsdata@production-tgs.fmecloud.com-test/autocad.dwgI had use the email attachments before when they came into ${FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_TEMP}/${FME_JOD_ID}

I scheduled a job to run, but say when the job is scheduled to run FMEServer is off (someone turned off AWS instance). Will the missed scheduled job run when that AWS instance with FMEServer is turned back on? Is it possible to set up FMEServer try to run all missed scheduled jobs on start-up? Or can FMEServer alert us to which scheduled jobs were missed?

We have had FME 2017.1 Server in place for over 6 months but hold off setting up receiving emails forwarded from MS Exchange server. Our company recently migrated to the Office 365 Exchange. Is that any documentation on how to set up email forward from 365 Exchange to FME server? The email receive notification on the FME server is one of the primary reasons we use FME server for.

I am the author of SQLiteSorter on FME Hub. I posted an update to the transformer about a week ago, and the test driver workspace I included passed. Then I looked today and the test driver reports failure. I think I've figured out why: The test driver workspace still referred to the old version of the transformer, without my improvements. And it was passing, so I figured I got it right. However, once I updated the transformer reference version, it started failing on a stupid Python typo. Whoops!I've since fixed the transformer, updated the test driver to test the new version, and uploaded everything to the Hub. But I never saw an email from Hub last week to let me me that it started failing, even though I'd already set up for email notifications of that very event in my Hub/Ideas profile. And, of course, the Hub test passed when I uploaded it last week, so I thought it was working even then. :-/Does anyone know if there a way I can notify the users of the transformer

I have a whole solution that is working well in FME Svr/Desktop 2017.0. I want to replicate it in 2016 (FME Svr 2016.1.3.1 / Desktop 2016.1.2.1) . I have a main workspace with Job Submitter and Notification services enable (I manage the notifications on job completion only in the Notfication service)The problem is when I'm publishing my main workspace on FME Svr 2016, the protocol in Notifications/Subscriptions is set to "push". It should be set to "workspace" to take over correctly the e-mails feedback (I previously set a IMAP Publisher with a generic address to trigger replies on the data process). When I initiate the process (send email with data to load) in 2016, I receive nothing while the expect results (in 2017) are to get a reply whatever if the data loading was a success or a failureso this is why I suspect there is something wrong in the settings. Any ideas? or do you know if there was some kind of improvements from FME Svr 2016 to 2017 which prevent m

Hi,  I have a process running on FME Server 2014 SP4 win32. It includes a notifier in the process and a notifier on failure.  I've seen now that the notifier in the process is logged with an error. This is correct because invalid credentials were provided. So in this case the on failure notifier should start when tha translation is finished but the logs says that the translation was succesful (with 16 warnings but now errors). So the log contains an error but still says "translation was successful".  Any ideas on this?  

I have few handful of workspaces (consuming job submit and data download services) that are initially setup without any email notification. Is there a way to modify the published workspace in FMW server to setup with email notification upon job submit fail and donwload fail?When you publish a new service and setup email notifications while assigning the services, it works!! But i want to change the settings for existing workspaces.Thanks in advance!

Hi,I have created a longitudinal section as illustrated in the screenshot. The customer now would like me to change the direction of the stationing (running from right to left instead of running from left to right.)The basis for the creation is a 3D polyline. Is there any quick and smart way to accomplish it?

We're currently testing FME Server 2018.0 - Build 18265 - win64, and upgrade every transformer in Workbench before publishing. Because of some Python functionality that require Python 3.4+ or newer, we set 3.6 in all workspaces under 'Translation parameters'. Everything works fine on desktop. On server, however, the Emailer fails with message: Python Exception <ModuleNotFoundError>: No module named '_socket' PythonFactory failed to load python symbol `Emailer.Emailer' Factory proxy not initialized Most other transformers work well on server with 3.6+ set in the workspace, but in order to get Emailer to work, we have to switch back to 2.7.

I am configuring a new installation of FME Server 2017 and have set up a reverse proxy for web access. I have been following this link which is based on FME Server 2015: https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/876/use-a-reverse-proxy-with-fme-server.htmlI am at the stage of configuring the email subscriber:Open the Web Admin Interface > Notifications > Subscriptions > Email_JobSuccess > Configure,In the Email Template, replace {urlPrefix} with {ResultPrexfix}.Under subscriptions I see:DataDownload_Email_JobSuccessJobSubmitter_Email_JobSuccessMigration_Email_JobSuccessI cannot locate {urlPrefix} in the data download subscription email template, there is however {downloadUrl} - do I need to change this?

Hello!In FME Server 2017 when I create a publication with the directory watch protocol, there is a poll interval that let me choose how often I want to verify my path. If I put 1 (or any number) a hour or day or week, is there a way for me to know the exact time FME will proceed to this verification?If I put 5 a week, how does FME manage the verification? 7 days divided by 5?Would it be possible to create our own schedule? With CRON expression available, like in the workspace scheduler.I read this but nothing about the time : PollThanks a lot.
