Data

I gather @runneals​  has also had this. Writing (truncating) to an ArcGIS Online feature service (that was created by FME) fails with the following error.  WARN |ArcGIS Online Feature Service Writer: 'addResults' error for a feature in 'MAP_WS_POINT'. The error code from the server was '1000' and the message was: 'The type initializer for '' threw an exception.' 2021-01-25 23:34:13| 24.4| 0.2|WARN |...

Have asked our vendor but just posting here for wider visibility. It came up for the first time last night.

I'm new to FME, but we brought it in to manage the new Mapinfo .mrr grids we were getting. I'm having a few problems getting my head around it though.I'm trying to contour a classified .mrr file, with One band (0) and two Palettes (0,1).I want to write polygons with the Palette 1 string values(eg. AAA-1, AAA-2, AAB-1, AAC-1) so I used RasterSelector to pick band 0 and Palette 1 the RasterToPolygonCoercer to create a .tab polygon file. It writes the polygons correctly but assigns BAND 0 value not the palette value.What do I need to do to expose the Palette value?Edit: I'm using RasterPaletteResolver on the grid but it seems to crash on a <Rejected> feature...Palette Keys -> Values : Band 3 : Palette 0 : 2195 -> AAA-1 Palette Keys -> Values : Band 3 : Palette 0 : 2196 -> AAB-1 =========================================================================== RasterPaletteResolver_<Rejected>(TeeFactory): RasterPaletteResolver_<Rejected>: Termination

FME 2020: How to bring the value of point layer into polygons with the “SpatialRelator” tool? In the screenshot below, I wanted to bring the values of a particular field of point layer into polygons with the “SpatialRelator” tool but appears not to work. What could be the issue here?The data is attached    

I have an FME Desktop Workbench 2019, with a Reader transformer that reads a webstie zip file and its shapefile. When I run this manually on Desktop it works fine and it can obtain the shapefile and read it.  I need to automate this to run daily. When I publish this workbench to FME Server and run it there, I get the following error: 49 ESRISHAPE Reader: Dataset `C:\\Users\\FME-SVC\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\fmeengines\\CAL-FME-GIS_Engine1\\FME_TempFileStore_1611253240189_1116820\\PLA_RTF_SHP.zip' lacks the required extension `shp'  What transformer can I use instead of the reader so it can work in FME Server? Or should I download the zip file with HTTPCaller, store it in the server and then attempt to read it from the server? But I need to read the shapefile in the zip file.  Is there a process or method anyone is familiar with to automate this in FME Server? Thank you.

I have a very basic workbench, which reads data from FFS files and should write around 15000 lines in the ESRI ArcSDE Table (SQL Server 2014). Unfortunately, when the workbench is ready to write the data in the table, I receive "Error running translation" with two BADNEWS issues in log which appear only in Debug mode:....ArcSDE release: '10.0'. Underlying database: 'SQL Server'A default z-value of '0' will be used for all 3D features where z-values are not providedGeodatabase Writer: Not simplifying geometries being written to the GeodatabaseError running translation......Kindly find complete log here  The writer which I use is "Esri Geodatabase (ArcSDE Geodb)". The same behavior I have with writer "Esri Geodatabase (Personal Geodb)" but if I change the writer to pure Microsoft Access, I am able to write in the data. In the Win Event Viewer I can find two error messages each time I execute the test (sorry that it is in German)I am u

Hi,I have a problem with adding a reader for a geopackage that contains a TIN. Adding the reader fails with the message: "No geometry mapping entry found for 'wkb_point' in metafile 'C:\\Program Files\\FME\\2020.1.0.1\\metafile\\OGCGEOPACKAGE.fmf'" Data is somewhat strange, since the layer identifiers are long (way over 30 positions) and contain spaces and minus signs. In QGIS, the data is displayed correctly though... Any idea what might be causing this error? The data is proprietary, so I can not share. I'm using FME 2020.1.0.1.

Hey thereI don't know if this is the right place to ask but here we go anyways.I am trying to get data from a geoserver and transform 2D Data into 3D Data as an IFC.  I am absolutely new to FME and I am struggeling to achieve anything. I tried that short example with AutoCAD to IFC Conversion: https://community.safe.com/s/article/autocad-to-ifc-conversion-example I Mean, it works fine, but I dont know what it does exactly. I somehow want to do the same, but instead of a AutoCAD building I want to transform some objects from a geoserver (electricity lines or other objects that are in 2D) into an IFC. Can someone give me some tips?  Greetings,Philipp

Hi Community,First post :)I have an IMAP publisher which downloads GML attachments. The files containing folder name is based on the email subject i believe. This seems to work perfectly when this file path is being processed by the Workspace subscriber. However, when the email subject contains an em/en dash character (i'm guessing anything not UTF8) the folder is then saved with the special replacement character in its name as shown.Once the workspace runs, it tries to use a JSONFeature to read the Topic message but the filepath is incorrect. FME log shows something like the following;XML Parser error: 'unable to open primary document entity '<FILEPATH>\\DBYD\\Incoming\\<FILENAME>_2??12_<FOLDERNAME>\\<FILENAME>_LLGDA94.GML''  Anyone any recommendations on how to deal with this please? Many thanksK

I have two inputs, a polygon shape file and a point shape file. The polygon shape file contains two area polygons, A and B. Each has a single, name attribute - A and B respectively. The point file contains 30 points and they also have a single name attribute, with attribute values ranging from A to E. Some of these points fall inside the polygons and others do not.As a rule, polygon A must only contain two A points and one E point while polygon B must only contain two B points and one E point. I input both shapefiles into PointOnAreaOverlayer transformer which filters out all points falling outside of the polygons. Within this transformer, I generate an attribute accumulation list on the Area outputs, with the selected attribute set to 'name'. Using listElementCounter, I can see if the correct number of points fall in each polygon - in this case 3. Using ListConcatenator, I can create an attribute listing the names of the points that fall in to the polygon, eg- A, A, E.I can

I try to import IFC file. I have a problem with combine informations from the IfcPropertySet and PropertySetDefinition sections. IfcPropertySet includes only: globalId, ifc_unique_Id and ifc_property_set_name. When I extructed elements from PropertySetDefinition section I see: ifc_property_set_name, ifc_properties.data_type, ifc_properties.name, ifc_properties.property_type.I don't see values for the name. What could be the reason for this?There is no id attribute. How do I connect these attributes with the right objects?   

Hi,I may be missing some information regarding the TAB format, but I find quite inexplicable this behavior on file sizes: After creating a couple of layers, and sent to different formats (SHP and TAB) I appreciated that some of the brand new layers have large differences on sizes when comparing with same layers from a past delivery.Here are the figures from the 20th and 21st version of same layer: So, the new layer has decreased in vertexes, that's not peculiar, the strange thing is that with around 1k less vertexes SHP files decreased around 70MBs (0.001%) while TAB files decreased 141.000 MBs (55%). Is there any explanation for this? Thanks for your help!Juanma,  

Hi. I am trying to take a 3D model that is build with several grouped geometries into components. Source format is flexible, but say I have an OBJ file with "g" lines in it that define groupings of parts of my model. I can't seem to see these groupings in FME or export them into 3D tiles - I get one single group for the entire output model.

Hi guys i found alot of question about CSS selectorbut no answer to my case so I tried to post my question How can select the blue info  <span>ISTITUZIONE TEMPORANEA DEL DIVIETO DI SOSTA PERMANENTE CON RIMOZIONE COATTA DEI VEICOLI IN UN TRATTO DI VIA DONATO BRAMANTE.</span> which CSS I have to use ? Sorry I'm new but the help need more more more examples from my point of view thx for support Francesco 

Hi,I have a complex Excel report that we have worked on for half a year on and off as part of an ArcGIS Survey123 project. The users have requested a formula in the Excel. I am using attribute names as column positions and have not been able to get it working.I have tested it in an apart workspace:This works: This does not work: I get the error which I would expect: 2019-10-11 16:24:04| 2.5| 0.0|ERROR |Excel Writer: Column name 'Q.formula' for sheet 'Sheet1' could not be used as a column position. It either contains non-alphabetic characters or is beyond the maximum column of XFD for XLSX or IV for XLS If Q.formula is not present in the output feature class than the formula does not write either. Is there a way to write a formula to an Excel sheet using the Use attribute Names As Column Positions parameter = Yes? 

When i try to copy a table from a sde database to another sde database i get the following warning."Could not find the features in the table 'tablename'. One possible reason is that a WHERE clause was specified that references a column/field that does not exist in the table. The error number from ArcObjects is: '-2147216086'. The error message from ArcObjects is: {Attribute column not found [tablename][STATE_ID = 797]" Also i get info "2021-01-11 17:05:12|  0.6| 0.0|INFORM|MULTI_READER(MULTI_READER): Will fail with first member reader failure" Can someone tell what am i doing wrong here ?

I have clipped point clouds of buildings and I would like to calculate the maximum height from these point clouds, but without chimneys and other small features. Is it possible to retrieve more detailed point cloud statistics which can be used for this? I am not looking for the median of average values of the point clouds, but really the maximum z-values of the roof constructions.

My workspace compares data from an Oracle database and a versioned SQL Server backed Esri Geodatabase. The Oracle database contains mostly CAD and MapInfo data. It's the source of truth for the data. The SQL Server database is the destination where changes to the source should get written. I am using a change detector to determine if there are any differences between the features. The process generally works ok. The change detector populates the fme_db_operation attribute appropriately, and I'm using that to set the Feature Operation.  My problem is that the process doesn't seem to update the features. The log indicates that it wrote the features and that the translation was successful. However, when I try to view the data in ArcGIS Pro, I'm not seeing the changes.  If the process was successful, if I ran it again, I should see zero features that need to be updated. However, I get the same number of features that need to be updated over and over again.  What could be ca

Hi.Am I correct in assuming, that the DGNV8 writer cannot output neither tags nor XAttributes ?I found this tutorial on writing tags, but it doesn't seem to work: https://community.safe.com/s/article/writing-microstation-dgn-tags-with-fmeI then found this page, that says that both tags and XAttributes can be read, but not written: https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Desktop_Documentation/FME_ReadersWriters/igds/DGNV8_reader.htmCan or cannot ?

Good morning, i have to use the FME software for my master thesis work. I'm trying to convert an IFC file to CityGML to put it next in QGis. I'm using just the readers i need to use for my purpose (Ifcdoor, Ifcwindow, ecc..) but during the translation the Unexpected Input says i have three types of features which cannot be converted, and that stops the whole conversion. Do you have any idea on how and where to connect those features? Because i don't really need those features, but it seems like there is no way of let the software to not consider them.

I'm wondering what the difference is between the DatabaseUpdater transformer and setting the Feature Operation to Update in a database writer.I know there is a lot of overlap is some of the transformers in FME so i'm wondering if one is better or if they'll do the same thing. 

Hello! I am having some issues when working with Dropbox both as data input and output. In the case of data input, there is one error that happens sometimes: a retrieval error. At least two different description of this error appears in the log>1. Retrieval error: Unable to create resource with duplicate name on web service2. Retrieval error: "web-service" reporting server-side error. This service may experience issues. (upstream connect error or disconect/reset before headers. reseat reason: local resetI am enclosing printscreens for both cases. Do you have any idea what's the cause(s) and how to overcome this?Thank you very much, Jorge

I have a workspace (attached to question) that writes leaders to a dwg template. As far as I can tell the template has no errors, but the resulting dwg has 2 errors and must be recovered to be opened. Has any one else encountered a problem like this? I have attached the workspace with the behavior described.
