We are preparing to upgrade to FME Form 2025.  I am running a job in the 2024 and 2025 version to compare the output.  I have found that in 2024 the FeatureReader didn’t reject any records, but now in 2025 some records are being rejected.  

FME(R) 2024.1.3.0 (20240927 - Build 24627 - WIN64)
FME(R) 2025.1.3.3 (20251104 - Build 25648 - WIN64)

The rejected records say:
fme_rejection_message    buffer    Coordinate system does not match first feature's coordinate system
fme_rejection_code    buffer    INVALID_GEOMETRY_COORDINATE_SYSTEM

 

Any thoughts on why the records fail in 2025 but not 2024?

I will continue working backwards to see what is unique about these records.

In 2025 FME the featurereader did see some updates, read up on the Highlights including the addition of a spatial definition. I suspect this means the Initator port requires features to have a coordinate system

I suspect you must ensure the initiator feature has a coordinate system defined. Use the record information (feature information) to inspect a record prior to the Feature Reader (and/or any FeatureJoiner). Does it have a coordination system defined/interpreted? (down the bottom under the geometry section).

You error message simply says reading was rejected due to INVALID coordinate system

A coordinateSystemSetter might be the transformer you need
