Architecture

 I want to ensure that the Job logs are retained for 521 weeks and do not get deleted during the system cleanup. As a result, I have configured as per the screenshot in the above image. Is the configuration accurate? 

 I am trying to make a custom top level resource folder work, but i can't write the output of my apps and workspaces to the folder.  If i try to write output to the custom folder, it fails almost immediately, and when i inspect the logfile it just says Log Error The log file for job ID "816" does not exist.Did i forget some steps in the configuration of the custom folder? Or what did i do wrong? Thanks in advance for the help!  For reference what i did:Adding Top-level resource folder in FME Flow | Community

Dear all,when fme flow start I still have this warning:Thu-18-Sep-2025 03:36:23.523 AM WARN main 401881 : Parameter ENABLE_AUTOMATION_LOG_CLEANUP missing from config file.

Recently been working on a process that uses the sharepoint online connector (package 1.7.1) to download, list, upload and delete files.This is working as expected in FME Form (tested on both 2024.1 and 2025.1)However, when this is deployed to FME Flow 2025.1 the sharepoint online connector that should download a file returns an error (but doesn’t cause the workspace to fail)Error: SharepointOnlineConnector: Could not connect to server. Check that you are connected to the internet and that no firewall is blocking outbound connections.(Caused by SSLError(SSLCertVerificationError(1, '[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: self-signed certificate in certificate chain (_ssl.c:1028)')))'The workspace continues and the sharepoint online connectors that are listing and uploading items work as expected.It’s been tested on another similar FME Flow environment that has not yet been upgraded to FME 2025 and the error does not exist and the file is downloaded.I’m not sure wher

I would like to add the following folder, named "moi”, to my top level resource folders, and add it to the list in the picture below. I couldnt find that much information about it online, and i tried something, but it didnt work. I located the folder in the FME Flow program files, and added the folder, but that didnt work. It doesnt show up in the top level resources list, Does anyone know if it is possible to do this? And how?  Thanks in advance!  

Hi,Our department currently uses 2025.1.1 version of Flow.Is there a way in FME Flow to identify the database/web connections used by workspaces/workflows without the need to go into automations or schedules to identify them manually? Ideally, it would be great if can create a dashboard that lists all workflows (across all workspaces) along with the database connections they use. The reason for this request is that multiple offices within our department use FME Flow and have uploaded their own workflows. As a result, we’ve discovered that duplicate database connections have been created by these different teams.Currently, I have to manually inspect each automation or schedule to identify the workflows and their associated connections. A centralized dashboard would greatly simplify this process and help us enforce standards by identifying and eliminating duplicate database connections.Any help or ideas is much appreciated!Thank you,LS.

Hi, I have installed FME Desktop onLinux (Technical Preview), unforunatelly when I try to start Workbench I get the following message: Segmentation fault Did anyone of you have similar problem, is it something wrong with Linux configuration? fmedatainspector seems to work fine.

Hi everyone, I was wondering if there’s a smart way to check whether any of the transformers in my uploaded workspaces (on FME Flow) are out of date or could be upgraded. Right now, the only method I know is to download each workspace one by one, open it in FME Form, run the upgrade process, and then re-publish it back to Flow. That feels quite time-consuming when you have many workspaces. Is there a built-in feature, script, or workaround that can help identify which workspaces contain upgradable transformers without having to go through them individually? Thanks in advance for any tips!

Hi.I just did an engine upgrade of my 2024.0.1 Flow instance to the very latest version 2024.2.1I then created a workspace in Form version 2024.2.0, and tried to upload it to Flow to test deployment parameters.But I get a warning stating, that Flow is older than Form, and the workspace is unrunnable on Flow.This is not good, as an engine upgrade is a nice way to keep Flow running with the latest version without the hazzle of major downtime and reinstallation.Why can’t the Flow 2024 UI handle engine upgrades, and why is my workspace blocked on Flow ? 

Hi, I have observed when the workspace is executed through the FME Form, the log file is generated into the folder path mentioned under the Logging>Log File parameter.  However when the same workspace is published on FME flow and executed through the workspace app, it does not generate the log file in the folder path. The user can only download it through the FME flow under jobs

Hello Everyone, I hope you are doing well. I ran the below scripts to set it to custom python interpreter. I would like to know the default settings for FME server to revert back to original settings ?  Thanks,Naveen

Description:Currently, FME Flow does not allow defining a specific language for an FME Flow App. This results in browser auto translation functions also translating user parameter values. In some cases, this can cause confusion, especially when certain words are spelled the same in both languages but have different meanings. In FME Flow Apps, the lang attribute in the <html> tag is always set to 'en', and there is no option to change this value.Idea:Incorporate an option to select the default language of the FME Flow App or prevent the automatic translation of parameter values.Benefits:This would help maintain the clarity and accuracy of the information in the FME Flow APP, reducing potential misunderstandings.

Hi All,I’ve enabled versioning control in FME flow and connected it to our Azure dev ops repository.I can commit and push files to the master branch, but I can’t push to any other branch or sub-folder.cThis is an issue as we have 10 different FME Flow environments and all workbenches are being pushed into the same branch and repository. Is there any way to choose which specific folder or branch each FME flow instances connects to? Cheers

We are wondering which version of FME Flow will support ArcGIS Enterprise 11.5. Looking on the history in Notes on FME and Esri Versions and Compatibility I would guess it might be 2025.1?

Hi, our IT department have reported Apache Tomcat Vulnerability CVE-2025-49124 which impacts both our production and non-production servers running FME Flow 2024.2.1.Has anyone else reported this to Safe Software and is there a plan to provide a fix in 2025.1.4?DescriptionUntrusted Search Path vulnerability in Apache Tomcat installer for Windows. During installation, the Tomcat installer for Windows used icacls.exe without specifying a full path. This issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.7, from 10.1.0 through 10.1.41, from 9.0.23 through 9.0.105. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 11.0.8, 10.1.42 or 9.0.106, which fix the issue.

Good Morning Safers, I am installing FME Flow 2021.2, and I wanted to check on the version of PostgreSQL I should be using, and the instructions on how to configure a provided a database server. As per Safe’s documentation, it seems I am looking at 11.13 but this version is long retired. I did find the following post that seems to indicate it is still compatible with 14:   Have other discovered the same? Also, there doesn’t seem to be documentation about provided a configured database server. The documentation seems to indicate I would provide the scripts for creating the user and schema to the database administrator that are downloaded with FME Flow, but I am making assumptions. I did find the documentation from Barrie, but the FME Flow documentation provided by Safe only seems to go back to 2024: https://dis.barrie.ca/fmeserver/help/PDF-FMEFlowAdminGuide.pdfThank you Safers!

Hello Safers,I am currently planning on implementing a FME Flow server that I’ll need to use within an ArcGIS Enterprise that is federated. I understand based on the documentation that I need ArcGIS Server installed and licensed on that server before attempting to install FME Flow. This have I have already done. I’m now onto creating a site for this machine. I imagine this site would be federated with my ArcGIS Enterprise? We also have a separate server that contains all of our Web Adaptors. Would install the Web Adaptor the same as any other ArcGIS Server, and separately have the Apache application server install on my FME Flow? I would then use the aforementioned to create a reverse proxy so that external traffic is then routed onto our FME Flow server. Does this not effectively mean there are two different configurations: One to direct traffic to our ArcGIS Server site, and then another to our FME Flow Web Application Server?Basically, the question above is: I would configure my Arc

The FME Server docs do a good job of telling you how to uninstall and reinstall Server, whatever configuration you choose. However, if you want to migrate from last year's FME Server to the latest release, you have to backup and uninstall everything first. This might work fine for an Express install. But if you have a distributed install of FME Server, the server backup only contains the workspaces, repositories, services and supporting files from your last install. Your previous architecture's configuration isn't stored anywhere. How would you recommend backing up your previous distributed configuration settings (network locations, ports, service account names, etc) to make it easier to install the new release so you have the same configuration as before?

What is the process to access the database on the FME Server just so that we could have a trail of files that users ingested and the outputs that were generated? What are some of the best practices we can implement that can be helpful at the time of audit ?

Hi, I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this? Yesterday my site access for FME Flow worked fine and today it won’t work at all; I get 404 error.The only thing that seemed to occur between yesterday and today is a Windows Security update. Has anyone else experienced this? I have stopped/started all services; uninstalled the update and restarted the machine but nothing seems to work to get the site back up. I feel like rolling back to a backup is the only option.  Thanks!

Hi FME community,I’ve recently been asked if FME Flow supports access via the Microsoft Entra application proxy. Has anyone configured this and can confirm it is supported?I believe it’s very similar to the setup explained in the documentation below, but I haven’t been able to find any documentation referencing the Microsoft Entra application proxy.https://support.safe.com/hc/en-us/articles/25407571916173-Use-a-Reverse-Proxy-with-FME-Serverhttps://support.safe.com/hc/en-us/articles/25407364847885-Using-IIS-and-ARR-as-a-Reverse-Proxy-in-FME-FlowThanks!

Hi AllCurrently we are facing some weird issueWe have a FME workspace which is running fine in FME Form (2024.2.3 - 64 bit), we have published to FME Flow (2024.2.3) and when we ran the workspace from FME Flow, it started throwing below Ora error (changed ServerName & UserName values to XXX to hide)-“ Error connecting to Oracle database: message was `ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified'.

Our Flow instance has more web connections than it should.  That’s the result of allowing new connections without peer review.Now, one of our team members is leaving and I’m concerned his workspaces will use connections that won’t transfer.  (We use Entra)Is there a way to find all the connections used in various workspaces (scheduled and on-demand apps).  I don’t see a view for that in the individual workspaces, or I’d step through them all.Other than downloading and opening each workspace (~100), or deleting the connections to see what happens, is there a way?

When I installed FME Server, it is asking me for the name of the server which I specified. But when I register the license and the engines are started, they are listed as localhost_ENGINE1. Is there a way to change it the server name? What if I wanted to specify the engines to run with the server name, how do I do that at install?
