Another parameter bug

Ok, So we are still using FME flow 2023.2. And its been a while since making those choice parameters. So I thought I would make one to select environment. So the display settings is important to be short and cool, while the value can be long and hard. so I published the workspace as a datastreaming service, and thought for sure my param value should be that of the display values. but no, datastreaming wants my full grose value as an input. This is so annoying, is this fixed in 2024 version? and where is the bug report form? I dont like negative posts, but I have no choice now..

FME Server 2019 MSI

I’m looking to uninstall FME Server 2019.1.3.1 from an old machine. When it was originally installed, it came as an executable file, not msi. Uninstalling from Programs and Features brings up the below message, and if I attempt using the exe instead, it unpacks everything and then gives me the same message. Is there an actual .msi for this? The Safe downloads site only goes to v2021, and even then it’s an exe not an msi. Thanks!

Why implement a /16 network wenn installing FME Flow via the marketplace in Azure

Before the FME Flow Marketplace installation on Azure I configured a /24 vnet with multiple subnets of 30 hosts. Enough I thought. During the installation we discovered that only a vnet with a prefix of /16 vnet is accepted.A red text is displayed: "the virtual network must contain an ipv4 address space larger than or equal to 16 ”Wenn a /16 vnet is applied everything worked fine. But… why a /16 vnet, /16, (more than 65.000 hosts)?I don't want to waste a /16 vnet.Is there a way to change this behave and use our /24 vnet?

FME Flow Dynamic Scripted Parameters?

I saw recently that in FME Form 2024.1 dynamic scripted parameters have been introduced. While I was excited to see this new feature, I was curious if these parameters work the same when published to FME Flow? I searched the FME Flow documentation, but was unable to find further information regarding this. Is this functionality only limited to FME Form?

How to host engine pods on non-default AKS node group

Hello all, I am learning about Kubernetes by trying out FME Flow on Azure Kubernetes Services. I’ve got Flow running on the default AKS setup of one agentpool and one userpool, using an Azure postgresql database. Small configuration-changes in the .yaml and doing a helm upgrade work as expected. Now I try to follow this safe-support article on engine assignment and job routing and I fail to get it to work (on 2024.1+ versions of Flow). Just as described in the article, I used ‘nodeSelector’ and a tag to assign engine-pods to a node-pool. The ‘new’ engine-pods on the node-pool I created do not schedule. They remain pending.The message is: 0/4 nodes are available: 1 node(s) didn''t match pod affinity rules, 1 node(s) had untolerated taint {CriticalAddonsOnly: true}, 2 node(s) didn't match Pod's node affinity/selector. preemption: 0/4 nodes are available: 4 Preemption is not helpful for scheduling.. The pods should schedule on the first of the three mentioned node-pool. Apparently the ‘se

FME Flow - Error Communicating with FME Server host localhost

Hello, So the following issue that was suppose to be fixed with version 2018.1 and onwards is not completely dealt with The issue seems to point to an error related to UNC paths using international characters when adding Network Resources as pointed out by this article: https://support.safe.com/hc/en-us/articles/25407651730573-No-FME-Engines-Available-After-Adding-Network-Based-Resource According to the article this error was fixed from 2018.1 onwards. However I found out that using a space in the UNC path will cause a similar error (if not the same) and the only way to fix it is to remove the Network Resource with the space in their UNC Path. I’ve tried with different versions and so far the error shows up even on 2024.1. This UNC path generates the error: \\seerver\Customers\Data In When the above UNC path is added to the Network Resources, the system is able to recognize the path and creates the respective folder in the Resources (granted you need to have the right permissions for t

Exporting the project is not permitted. Items that don't exist or are inaccessible by you

Hi All, I get the following error when trying to export a project where there is an issue with a dependency: This project contains items that don't exist or are inaccessible by you. My user is a superuser and I can see the file however when I click the link to take me to the file, I can see that the link is different. Is there a problem with the link? Link returned by project: /fmeserver/resources/lookup?path=FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_DATA%5CEDM_CSV expected link: /fmeserver/resources/browse?path=FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_DATA%2FEDM_CSV&name=Data I noticed that @kate-safe mentioned in a recent ticket that this was a known bug ( ) Is there anyway to fix this without upgrading FME flow? It’s put a halt on all of our deployments. Flow installation details: FME Flow 2023.1Build 23619 - win64 Many thanks! Sam

There are Workspace Parameters for Last Save Date, Last Save Build, and History. Can any of these parameters be found through the Flow interface once a workspace has been published?

Raspberry pi 5 FME projects!

Hello, At Spatialworld, we are acquiring a Raspberry pi 5 to play with FME Ubuntu ARM as they seem to be a great match for IOT demos. We did some testing in docker and they went well but we wondered if others had already played with them and had projects? We would be very glad to exchange experience on this as it looks promising and fun (especially with FME Flow remote engines for people with subscriptions). Looking forward to reading about this! 🎮

Using deployment param through scripted param UI errors off; bug?

FME(R) 2023.1.1.0 (20230928 - Build 23631 - WIN64) I have a simple scripted parameter script in workbench to return the value of a deployment parameter and I’m wondering if there’s a bug in the interface. When I drag a user parameter onto the script canvas the code generated contains FME_MacroValues, eg. FME_MacroValues['SomeUserParam'] If I drag a deployment parameter, dpTest, onto the script canvas the code generated looks like $(dpTest) Here’s the script. The commented code fails; if I manually correct $(dpTest) to FME_MacroValues['dpTest'], it runs: # Get the archive folder from deployment paramimport fme #arch = $(dpTest)#return arch return FME_MacroValues['dpTest'] Is this a bug? Thanks.

De-install custom python (The User-specified library ...python37.dll could not be loaded)

We used to need custom python on FME-Server. I’m no system administrator, but I had found out how to install it (Using Python with FME Flow (safe.com)). Now we updated to FMEFlow 2024 and we don’t need custom python anymore, so I didn’t install it. but obviously it is still registered somewhere that we used to need a different python.dll, for I get the warning “The User-specified library ...python37.dll could not be loaded”. How can I reset everything to default-settings? I tried it with this: <FMEFlowDir>Server/fme/fme.exe APPLY_SETTINGS SYSTEM "Python/Use Custom Python 64" false and restartet the FMEServer-services, but the warning remains in the log.

FME FLOW - working workspace got stuck without errors

Good morning all, I have a working workspace, I run it from FME FLOW and it gets stuck after a while.It doesn’t show any error or warning.I suppose that the problem could be due to a CSV WRITER, it seems that the process got stuck seding the result of a filter to the CSV WRITER. Then I found the solution, altough the workspace was run from the admin user and the user is the owner of data folder, I provided the authorization to data folder to admin group. The task ended with no errors.
