Hi list.

I have a local FME Flow development setup using 2024.2.3

Originally all of its 4 services ran as Local System, but the workspaces need to access files on a file share on another server, and so I tried changing the services (except database) to Local Network Service without much success.

Our production servers (2022) do run with an AD account, so I have som experience with this approach. I therefore changed the development Flow to run under my AD account.

The interface seems to be working ok, but now whenever I try to run a workspace, it errs with “There was an error submitting the job”.

Why is this different ? What am I missing here ?

Any insight is appriciated.

Cheers

Hi ​@lifalin2016,

While FME Flow was running under the Local System account, were you able to submit jobs successfully?

In my own experience, on a local machine with no additional configurations (like HTTPS, SSO, etc), the “There was an error submitting the job” message is often caused by a misconfigured Service URL.

A few things to check:

  • Are engines registered and available in Flow?

  • Are you accessing the web interface via localhost or the machine name?

  • Do the Service URLs use localhost or the machine name?

Also, I’ve seen this error occur when connected to a VPN and accessing Flow via the machine name, whereas it works fine when off the VPN.
