Currently in the process of trying to upgrade from FME Server 2015 / ArcGIS 10.2 to FME Server 2017/ArcGIS 10.5. We have around 400 scheduled replications that mostly write to an Oracle SDE database using the SDE30 writer. About 150 of these FMW's crash when run on the new environment. The log writes some warning messages (that I do not believe are related to the crash as they appear in the 2015 replications as well) and then silently crash. I have tried running with FME workbench 2017, and this process does not provide any additional logging.

The warning messages before the crash are:

Using existing table's definition.=======

Things that I have tried so far to resolve this issue include:

  • Delete and re-create the writer - didn't work
  • Update the writer in FME 2017 - didn't work
  • Replace with Geodatabase writer - this did work, but its going to be an enormous amount of work to go through all 150 FMW's and replace with the new writer.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks

Kevin

Hi @guy_lafleur, the libraries needed for the SDE30 format are no longer shipped with ArcGIS Desktop beyond 10.2. You can read more about the libraries here: ArcSDE Libraries Required for the Esri ArcSDE SDE30

 

Although not formally supported, some users have found having ArcGIS Pro is successful when using the SDE30 format.
