Missing output files when publishing to FME Server (works locally and in old workbench on server )

Could it be that the new server is low on disk space and that the FME Flow cleanup task is in aggressive clean up mode?

Thanks for the tip ​@david_r but that should not be the issue.

The old workspace that does the same thing works 100% of the times.

But the new one that I’ve done some alternations with does not include the files(most often pictures).

One debugging step i’d consider would be to write to a defined location such as c:\temp. This will help narrow down if it is a ‘writing the file’ issue or a ‘location where the file is written’ issue

Thanks for the tip, @hkingsbury.

I’ve tried this now, but unfortunately it doesn’t work.
I think it's a strange bug in the Workbench.

It works when I activate the “old path” inside the embedded transformer — even though that path doesn’t lead to any output port.
If the part is active, everything works perfectly.
But if I deactivate it, it stops working.

So it seems like some kind of bug.
Any suggestions on how to solve it?

An approach that i’m not sure if it will work, but worth trying…..

Open a brand new, fresh workspace and copy the entire contents of the existing process into the new one. Save, publish to Flow and test

Are you using the data download service? Are the files missing from the ZIP?

I’ve seen some situations where is seems like the zip gets created before all data are actually available to be zipped. 

Perhaps enabling this “old path” changes the order in which things are processed.
