I tried Safe suggestions to set both Workbench and its tool > FME option to the ArcGIS Pro python version but still get the following python error message. Please help. Thanks.

Loaded module 'GeometryValidationFactory' from file 'E:\\Program Files\\FME\\plugins/GeometryValidationFactory.dll'

FME API version of module 'GeometryValidationFactory' matches current internal version (3.8 20180209)

The ArcGIS Python 3.6 interpreter could not be found. Please ensure the proper ArcGIS is installed with an architecture matching FME's

FYI for other users running into the same issue, FME 2018.1 and newer is required to use the Python 3.6 bundled with ArcGIS Pro 2.2.

At the time of this post, FME 2018.1 is available for download as a beta at the following link:

Edit: Specifically 2018.1 builds 18493 and higher

Debbi, Thanks for this info.

I installed the 32bit beta from a few weeks ago (18486) and I have Pro 2.2 installed but I am still getting this error. Suggestions? Do I need the latest beta (18511)?

Hi @jakethepainter

 

Yes, you will need a newer build of FME 2018.1 (builds 18493 and higher should support ArcGIS Pro's 3.6 interpreter).

 

Please note, the bit-architecture of the ArcGIS application and FME needs to match. As ArcGIS Pro is 64-bit, FME will also need to be 64-bit. Please see this article for more information on FME and ESRI version compatibility.
