  Nathan@safe  I have created the Stop Sign Writer and the Height Restriction Writer and the RR Crossing Writer and then when I go to Insert the writer in the Workbench it requires a layer name that it already assigns or puts in there (we are free to change this to whatever we want as per FME Software Help)  Everything runs beautifully ......right up to the very last instance of Global Variables Final State Summary    When it runs …….it fails at the Writer because it cannot find that layer (I have used every conceivable Layer Name on this earth and it fails no matter what is used)  ArcGIS Online Feature Service Writer: Could not find a layer/table matching feature type 'Stop'   I am INSERTING and TRUNCATING on the writer to overwrite all and replace the FS with what I am writing out from the FME process    No matter what I do it fails at the Layer Name    Can you hel

I'm trying to use filecopy writer to copy a folder and its subfolders to a new location. I want to use FME to periodically copy my working folders to the server instead of using a script. I have set the 'overwrite existing file' option to 'No' - the intention being that only files that don't already exist in destinations location will be copied.I get an error indicating that a file i'm copying already exists in that location or I don't have permissions to the source and destination. The file definitely does not exist in the destination location. I'm just testing this on my C drive and writing from one of my document folders to C:\\temp so there should be no issue with permissions. Also, I have I have also tried the 'yes' option which just overwrites everything and that works fine. I'm using FME 2020. Any help would be appreciated.The picture below shows the simple workbench. I'm reading a folder and using a logger to

Hello,how to generate numbers in pairs from 2 to 80 and from 3 to 77.ex: 2, 4, 6, 8,.....803, 5, 7, 9,.....77Nr. 1Nr. 2238077

I'm looking for a bit of advice on how to correctly use the latitude and longitude information in a jpeg (from the exif information).  I've exposed the jpeg_exif_gpslatitude and jpeg_exif_gpslongitude information in fme but, when i inspect the output, the lat and long are displayed with brackets like this;  (52) (15) (7) (1) (9) (6)  Which i think equates to Degrees, Minutes and Seconds?  How exactly does this field need to be displayed so i can create a point using the vertex creator then output to shape?  I've tried the StringSearcher with the following:  Search in: jpeg_exif_gpslatitude Contains Regular Expression: [0-9][0-9]  Which outputs 52 into a new column, but i'm struggling to add the other parts of this field to get a meaninful coordinate entry  Any advice anyone can provide me with would be very helpfulregards

Has anyone had an issue when writing to text file, it prefixes each entry with a 'space' character?It is writing each new line nicely, appending to the existing data, but the data it writes always is inserted with a leading space.I can confirm the row being sent to be added to the text file does not have any leading space:When this is written, a space is appearing!

I wanted to transform a shapefile of lines to a wavefront .obj file. In the resulted file test_obj.obj, I did not get a list of vertices and a line starting with "l" to represent a line.Below are three images. The first one shows shapefile "test" with a line. The second image shows how I configured in FME to get an obj file of the line. The third image shows the resulted obj file, which is "empty".Can anybody help me?

I am writing out to excel and need to have the top row have different colors. Is there a way to just color top row? When I assign a color in the writer it applies it to the whole column.

I have a fme process that runs daily that updates records in a geodatabase table. Every couple of days I get an error after the process attempts to reconcile the version. The version is dedicated soley for this process. The process fails after it can not successfully reconcile the version. I am getting the below error:  "Conflicts were found when reconciling version 'GAS.FMEPROD' with target version 'SDE.DEFAULT'. Conflicts were found in the table(s): GAS.gValve. These conflicts must be manually resolved. The reconcile operation will be undone and none of the changes will be saved"  I am not sure if anyone has had this issue before. Any solution or information that can be provided would be helpful.  Thanks.

I have an Oracle table full of polygons, I'd like to split them into the arcs and line segments they're composed of.Is there any way I can do this? The closest I've found is setting a Chopper to split every 2 vertices, but this has the effect of turning any arc segment into several straight line segments, which is unwanted.

So today I learned about how to use webservices and connect to a SharePoint online list using my organization credentials.Regular old SAML wasn't cutting it so I had to use the WebService feature of FME.I created a new template by replacing the [tenant] with the subdomain to which I was trying to connect.  And everything went swell, I authenticated successfully and the connection saved.Then I went and created a new workspace with a new reader for the SharePoint reader.The good news is that the authentication went successfully.The bad news is that when I then clicked on the ellipsis to select the list, it didn't work. Updating access token for 'NewConnectionFromWebServiceTemplate'Microsoft SharePoint List Reader: Client-side error: '401 Client Error: Unauthorized for url:

Hi,I would like to set the default filename for the PDF which is opened in my Data Streaming service (using the PDF2D Writer). I can't work out how to do this. I have seen the following post which mentions setting the MIME Type, but I'm not sure how to do this..https://knowledge.safe.com/questions/85804/fme-server-data-stream-datafile-writer-pdfs.html Thanks!

Hi, I need to write the results of multiple files (let´s say raster data like .jpg) from multiple folders including subfolders into their source directory/folder...I can´t get it working with the proposed solution from this similar question here: https://knowledge.safe.com/questions/108973/write-file-in-the-same-directory-where-source-file.html. It seems that it does not work if I am recursing through subfolders.  Does anyone have a solution?

Hello, Whilst looking at ifc and revit files, I saw that some instances are written away as Geometry Definition and Geometry Instance.I was wondering how you do this in FME. I was looking at the GeometryPropertySetter but I dont' see any possibility to write away geometry definitions.I also looked at https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/54027/creating-and-using-geometry-instances.html#:~:text=A%20geometry%20definition%20is%20a,and%20a%203D%20affine%20matrix.&text=This%20is%20especially%20true%20if,is%20very%20large%20or%20detailed.But I could't really work it out myself.Anybody can point me in the right direction. Kind regards,

Shape to kmz issue. Workbench runs and records getting written, But then the KMZ is 0 bytes.  

I want to create an automation in FME Server for a user to validate his data.He sends in an email with his data as attachement and the topic of the validation as part of the email subject.In the workbench, the email subject is parsed and the topic is kept as an attribute. At the end a logfile is written with the name: topic.log (I do this with a fanout in the writer).This logfile I want to send back to the sender of the email as an attachement. But to attach the file to the email, I have to fill in its path and I don't know the filename at this point. How can I pass the value of "topic" (=filename) as parameter to the Automation, so that I could use it in the "Email Details"?(I'm using FME Server 2019.0)Thanks, Vera

I have a workbench, which calls a REST API via HTTPCaller and get a Response in JSON Format. Then it writes the response via a FeatureWriter into a directory as a json-File. That works with no trouble in FME. But as soon I published it for FME Server and start the process there, it doesn't write no jsonfile into the directory. The workspace runs on the FME Server without problem. I testet with different workflows like AttributeFileWriter etc. It never writes a file......
