Hi I'm trying to split a series of raw point cloud files into files named by Ordnance Survey 500m tile reference, which are provided via a MapInfo TAB file. The point cloud contains X,Y,Z & Intensity. I've tried using the tiler tool, but that only splits by a certain number of rows and columns, any help would be much appreciated.Many Thanks in advance!Dan
Hi, I have a oracle spatial reader setup to read a number of tables. All the tables can read except one table and the reader stops automatically with a error message in the log - Error - Cannot have NULL value for 'x coordinate'. I tried to filter the bad geometries with a where clause like this - SDO_GEOM.VALIDATE_GEOMETRY_WITH_CONTEXT( G3E_GEOMETRY, 0.005, 'TRUE') = 'TRUE' . That did not work either and the same error followed. Surprisingly when I used this sql statement at SQLDeveloper, it results in a set of valid records. I am not sure why FME is not able to read these valid records. Appreciate if you could help me out with this.
The idea is that an Excel document with file-paths is used for pushing updates.
The IFC reader needs to have an actual IFC file as its dataset when it's created. How can I create a reader that's able to handle any IFC file that's uploaded to the FME server?After the reader is created it seems that I can change the dataset to be given in a parameter, but I don't understand what the meaning of the IFC file given to the original dataset is.
Our team names have changed and I'd like to clean up the category names. Is this possible without recreating the scheduled jobs? Have I overlooked something simple?
If I leave it as sheet 1 all the hyperlinks work. I have multiple sheets that I will add to the excel file so this function should work fine and has in the past version. Could someone help?
Hi I want to update a view on ArcGIS Online, does anyone know if that is possible?My plan is bring in the data as a feature service and filter the data I want in the view and publish to an existing view? Any help would be appreciated
I'm trying to use views/tables from a PostGIS database that uses the encoding UTF-8, while my system encoding is ISO-8859-1 / Latin-1.It works alright until some views named using exotic letters are run through e.g. the LineOnLineOverlayer transformer, which produces a Python Unicode Error (ordinal out of range).Can I somehow specify in the FME PostGIS reader that the database uses another encoding, or should I submit this behaviour as a bug report?
Hi, When I would like to insert a new table to Postgis, I am getting below error. For existing table is ok. Its means that, it is inserting a new records, but if does not exist table, it does not allow to create.
I try to load data from this wfs : https://www.vaarweginformatie.nl/wfswms/services?SERVICE=WFS&VERSION;=1.1.0&request;=GetFeature but it gives some errors. I use the wfs reader in FME desktop 2015, I see and can select the different feature types in the wfs but it won't load the data. The reader generate the next error : The top-level element declaration referred to by the 'substitutionGroup' attribute is missing from the XML Schema QName: 'gml:AbstractFeature' | namespace uri:'http://www.opengis.net/gml' What is going wrong?
I have a large number of file geodatabases with one feature class in each in a centralized location.This large number of FGDB's are not a constant one. It may add new FGDB or remove from other process. i would like to add all feature classes into one new file geodatabase and reading can be dymanic. Could any one suggest how to achieve this?
I have struggled both with samples and without samples trying to understand what stops the FME job. It’s an transformation from SWEREF99 to RT90 coordinate system that works fine if running directly in the FME server web environment. When I run it from a js-routine and even when I simulate the calls in Postman I get the same problem.It ends with:Shape Reader: No Shape files found in specified folder '.'. Check if folder specified is validError fetching dynamic schema definitions from reader `SHAPE_1'. Error reading from `.' reader.MULTI_WRITER: Error fetching dynamic schema definitions from reader 'SHAPE_1'I have attached the log-file if you can see anything from that.Best Regards johan
Hi,I am not having much luck with my loop. I set it initially to 4 and hope to iterate through a table which there where filter for level = dropping by 1 each time from 4 to 0 where there loop then completes. Unfortunately nothing is being written at the moment out and I am none the wiser. Can anyone see from the workbench what I might be doing wrong.Many Thanks,Oliver
Hello FME expert,I try to read a file (ZRM.csv) into Oracle db but my result looks like output.xls I don't manage to get rid of the seperations |~| and [||] and [ with my reader because I have only 1 Delimiter Character in the CSV reader. Is there a better way to extract and read only the items that I want?Many thanks for your reply
Hello, I have a multiple PDFs that contain image in them self.

I tryied RasterMosaicer but it is not working. Thank You in advance. Dejan
I get an Oracle connection error using FME Server 2017.1.2 - Build 17722 - win64 to import data to an Oracle Spatial 11g or 12c database. The server OS = Windows Server 2008 R2 The following Oracle Server settings are present:tnsnames.ora is set via an environment system variable to a certain drive mapping:TNS_ADMIN %O_DRIVE%\\OracleO_DRIVE \\\\srv_name\\environment\\appORA_HOME not set Locally tnsnames is NOT set via:<<Installation_Drive>>\\app\\Administrator\\product\\<<versiono of Oracle>>\\client_1\\network\\admin\\tnsnames.ora When I copy tnsnames.ora locally FME SRV connects without problem (which we don’t want), if ORACLE_HOME is set or not doesn’t matter.When tnsnames.ora is set via TNS_ADMIN variable and NOT locally FME SRV oracle connection fails. FME Workbench doesn’t have this problem, it connects to TNS_ADMIN without problems.Is there a solution?

When reading a DWG, I am only interested in reading layers with the prefix '_'. Do I have the option to ignore all other layers? I know I can easily filter them after they've been read, but I'm trying to cut down on the initial reading time. Thanks.
Hi everyone,I'm using FME 2017.1.1.1 (20171014 - Build 17652 - WIN32) and I can't figure out the URL format I need to put in the MongoDB Reader for MongoDB Atlas. My co-worker tried with FME 2018 Build 18220, and he had the same issue.For my local MongoDB, the "localhost" works fine.But if I try to connect to MongoDB Atlas, I can't able to connect.I tried:mongodb+srv://gettingstarted-46yzp.mongodb.net/test?retryWrites=true Error is: Cannot connect: More than one ':' detected. If this is an ipv6 address, it needs to be surrounded by '[' and ']'mongodb://gettingstarted-46yzp.mongodb.net/test?retryWrites=trueRemoved: +srv Error still same: Cannot connect: More than one ':' detected. If this is an ipv6 address, it needs to be surrounded by '[' and ']'gettingstarted-46yzp.mongodb.net/test?retryWrites=trueRemoved: mongodb Error is: Cannot connect: no unix socket support on windowsgettingstarted-46yzp.mongodb.net/testRemove
I have a workspace that reads from a source File Geodatabase (.gdb) using the ESRI Geodatabase Open API format. When running the Workspace in Workbench with prompts, the parameter for the Source limits the browser to and/or understands that a File Geodatabase (.gdb) is the only acceptable selection/input.I have since published said Workspace to FME Server and the same parameter has no such limitation/understanding. When browsing to select the input (GDB) it displays the items within the GDB the same as if it were a simple directory (folder). If I click "OK" after choosing not to select anything within the GDB, server places the directory path in the parameter with a "/" at the end signifying that I want to use everything in the GDB as the input instead of the GDB as the input and the Workspace fails. If I manually remove the "/" from the end and run it, it succeeds.What must be done to get the published Server Workspace to function as the Workbench Wor
I need to load some data to AGOL from SDE, with domains. I have been able to load a feature service using FME using system proxy settings, but can't find a way to preserve the domains. Is this supported in FME and if not does anyone know of a workaround?In theory we should be able to share straight from ArcMap (domains and everything) however some complex corporate IT issues are preventing us from doing this, so I'm hoping FME can come to the rescue!Thanks.
I have run into a very strange problem. To simplify work I have created two folders, one incoming and one outgoing. Note that this is on a external disk. I have dropped the files I want to work on in the incoming folder and gathered the results in the outgoing. I recently moved everything FME to an other location on the same disk and proceeded to point the readers and writers to the new locations. For some strange reason I can't get this to work correctly. Everything else is identical and FME claims to write to the new folder but it turns out empty. If I delete the writer and insert a new one with identical settings it works again. Is there some workaround for this?
