FME Flow

Hi,  I've signed up the FME Cloud Beta, and started to learn how to use it. As my first trial, I uploaded a workspace which transforms XML dataset into raster and writes the result into Geotiff file. Service type is Data Download. The workspace worked fine, and I was able to download zipped result file from the web page which was displayed after the completion, if I didn't check "Email Result" (Advanced Option) on the Configure page.  However, when I checked "Email Results" and specified my mail address, I was not able to receive the e-mail even though the job has been completed successfully.   I checked if the mail address was correct, and tried several times. But no mail has come ... Do I need some server settings to enable the "Email Results" option? Thanks in advanc

Hi,I was wondering, is there any option to receive snmp message (trap message) on host: localhost, port: 162. I've tried connecting to TCPIPReceiver - gets me fatal error; tried get method in HTTP Caller - gets me wrong message (since no port is defined). Was trying to also define UDP publication in FME Server (Topic monitoring shows me nothing).Of course, I might be missing some crucial parameter. Might be, even, entrying wrong values to necesary parameters. So, please, correct me.Thank you.

Hi there,  We are working with FME Server for the past four months, and we've noticed that sometimes, seemingly out of the blue we get an error like this one:  Mon-24-Dec-2012 06:44:08 PM   ERROR    Engine-Thread-<ServerName>-Engine1   401854 : No message length returned in FME Engine reponse Mon-24-Dec-2012 06:44:08 PM   FATAL    Engine-Thread-<ServerName>-Engine1   401872 : Failed to get translation result.

Hi,As of late I've noticed that we've got a lot of sprawl with the names of our repositories. Does anybody have any best practices/recommendations on how their organization creates repositories/topics/notifications and assigns permissions?One thought I had was to create a repository per application and also per department/organizational group as needed. But I'm wondering if anybody else has any other ideas/thoughts on the matter. In addition, my thoughts really only apply to repositories and don't take into account permissions/topics/notifications.If it matters, my FME Server install only runs on my intranet. I don't need to expose it to the public.Thanks!-Jeff

I've successfully have emails sent MS Exchange forward to FME Server. No problems forwarding the email to another address as backup, problem is some email have 1-10 attached files. FMESeverEmailGenerator Content: allows only one attachment from a list email_publisher_content{0}How I just cc an email with multiple attachments?

Web User Interface is timing out, not displaying data, giving a connectivity error. How can I narrow down the problem?

Do you use a proxy with FME Server? If so how do you implement it?

I've read through the documentation on email and can't find anything about this. When I pass a layer (ArcGIS) through the FMEServerEmailGenerator and the FMEServerNotifier I get an email for every record in the layer. If there's 68 records I get 68 emails. I understand how to get one email sent to me with statistics from the layer. That's not the issue. But what I want to do is basically have FME send one email that has the table of all 68 records (Along with the column headers if possible ... Here's an example: ) in the body of the email. Almost as if you opened an excel file and selected a range of cells, copied them, and pasted them into an email ... If that makes sense?

We are designing a conversion-job spanning multiple workspaces. We can run one after the other using notifications by subscribing the next workspace to the succes topic of the previous.We could design this much more beautiful if we could e.g. start workspace 'E' and 'F' when 'B' and 'C' are ready. But when 'E' has a subscription to the succes-topics of 'B' and 'C' this is evaluated as an 'OR'. 'E' runs when 'B' or 'C' is ready.It would be nice to evaluate the notifications a workspace is subscribed to with an 'AND' clause. You should do 'this', when you have 'this' and 'that'. Is there a possibility to do this using FME only? Ofcourse we could make our own 'notification service' using some database and python or C#, but as far as I can see, the only thing I am missing in FME-server is an 'AND' clause in the notification subscription.

We have our servers running on RHEL 6, is FME Desktop available for this?Thanks,Vinod

I am using a C# REST service call to start a workspace. Passing the notification directives in the body.The notification subscription is setup with the PUSH service call. Basically, the subscription makes a service call when the workspace is failed or successful. When I published the workspace, with JobSubmitter, I made sure the right writer output is selected to be included in the service call, but the writer output will be included only if I run that workspace from WebUI, not with the service call. Is there a directive\\parameter that I can use in the initial service call to tell the notification to include the writer content in the notification body?Any thoughts?

Dear FME community,  is there a way to connect to an linux/ubuntu server from within FME Desktop? We have a server which has a specific IP adress. Say e.g.: 123.45.67.89  On this server which is a virtual machine runs Ubuntu. We would like to read from this server and if possible update the files in a specific linux folder. Is there a way from within FME to gain access to an ubuntu server?  Kind regards Thomas 

HiWe have a problem running scheduled tasks when we activate AD-authentication on our FME Server 2015. We get the following message in the log:MEServerJobSubmitter(ServerJobSubmissionFactory): Could not initialize connection to server "localhost". FME Server error: `Authentication failed: Failed to bind to Active Directory with the given username and password.'Anyone got this to work ?Kind regardsGuha,Stockholm Water

Hi,I'm looking at ways of assessing capacity of our fme server instance(s), and as well as regular things like cpu/ram capacity on the server I'm interested in the application specific metrics.In particular does anyone have a workbench/tool that will query an FME server 2015 repository and report the max number of engines running in a defined time period, lets say hourly. (I'm interested in the concurrency of engines, so I can reduce the chance of queuing, particuarly when I have active time dependant jobs.)If any one has any other stat gathering workbenches, I'd be interested in them too. I have some that query the repository and work out some stats per workbench, avg/max run times, success/fail counts that sort of stuff.Thanks in advance,Nick

Hello! I'm using HTTPCaller and FME Server's REST API to get a job timestamp (timeQueued), when it was sent to a queue. It's working well, but the timestamp should be converted to UTC. Currently local time in Finland is +3h from UTC, and due to the daylight saving, it goes to +2h in the fall. The job should be run automatically, so that I wouldn't need to put a offset parameter to the local time, which comes from REST API. Easiest solution would be that the timeQueued would come in UTC. Is it possible to configure that in FME Server?

Does anyone have experience configuring FMEServer Email Notifications using Microsoft Exchange. What do I need to configure on the Exchange server to enable this. I am getting the error message below,IMAP settings are already enabled for this account, but I am getting this message when trying to validate. The logfile shows the detail belowTue-09-Aug-2016 03:54:00 PM INFORM IncomingEmailWatcher 809006 : : Connecting to email server "***********" on port 25 ...Tue-09-Aug-2016 03:54:00 PM WARN IncomingEmailWatcher 809009 : : : Failed to connect to email server.

Hi, It would be great if we could establish that the FME Server system is stable and healthy using a SCOM Management Pack.We are maintaining our servers, running critical systems, using Microsoft SCOM. For this, critical applications usually provide a SCOM, Management Packs (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh212794(v=sc.12).aspx) to support this kind of maintainance. These management packs include the "business logic" for the monitoring of the various monitoring areas. Many default Management Packs are supplied by Microsoft and 3rd party vendors, that can be used directly in SCOM. Is it a good idea to develop such a SCOM management pack Question for FME Server? At the moment we consider building a custom setup that uses Windows Eventlog (which can be monitored by SCOM). For critical FME Workspaces that

Hi,I've used the httpfetcher in my 2014 WB, and it had proxy setting, and the script worked perfectly through the proxy.When i upgraded it with the new htppcaller in 2016.1, that option has disappeared and script no longer working.We have a few of these, and none seems to workplease suggest a way with proxy (don't want to use the fme option, because it is not a good way of implementing proxy)I think FME should be more proxy aware Rudy

Am I missing something really obvious? I have a very long list of of jobs on the jobs page. Most of them are jobs that run every 5 minutes on a time schedule. I also have jobs that run as the result of a directory watch. I want to find the last time this workspace was run or even just display those jobs that are spawned from this workspace. I can't see the wood for the trees at the moment. This must be easy to do?

Hi,  I tried the method explained here (https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/678/create-a-custom-download-link-for-results-from-dat.html) in order to create a custom download link but it doesn't work.I put in attached my config file. Does someone has an idea where I am wrong?  Thanks in advance!

When working through the Directory Watch Tutorial on Server 2015 located on a Win 2012 server, Step 3: "Verify the directory watch publication" fails to return messages to the monitoring page when a new file is copied into the Temp\\convert_tool\\Input resource folder.

Hi folks,I'm using FME Server 2016 here. Basically, my main workspace is published on FME Server with a jobsubmitter service and a notification on job completion. I ask to post to topics on Failure (and I check a topic that I already created in FME Server). This topic triggers a subscriber which is another workspace that sends an email. I want to know how do I manage the parameters that can be passed to the second workspace when the first workspace has failed? For example, the first workspace contains the user email to which we want to send the email in the second workspace. How do I pass it? It seems obvious when the topic is set on Success but not on failure.Here is what the JSON string automatically passed on failure between both workspace looks like:[ { "workspace": "aaaaaa.fmw", "timeRequested": "Tue-05-Jul-2016 04:11:39 PM", "requestKeyword": "JOB_SUBMITTER_SERVICE", "timeStar
