FME Flow

Hi,  I want to run multiple workspaces in a row on FME Server. I found this example (http://fmepedia.safe.com/articles/How_To/FME-Server-Workflow-Management) and wanted to test it on our FME Server. But it doesn’t work. The child process always starts with the default parameters. It appears that the FMEServerJobSubmitter doesn’t send the parameter to the child process.  Has everyone experience whit the FMEServerJobSubmitter? I run FME Server 2014 build 14234 64bit on Windows Server 2012 R2.  Thomas

Just upgraded from 2011 FME ESRI edition to 2013SP1 x86 ESRI edition build 13450.  Had several workbench scripts that were working fine in the 2011 version, now the 2013 ones won't work. I've got ArcGIS10.0 SP1 installed, Win 7 x64, SDE server reading from is ArcSDE 9.3.1 SP something, writing to ArcSDE 10.1 SP something (no, not every server is the same). When I run the older script, it gives a fatal error of: The error number from ArcObjects is: '-2147220969'. The error message from ArcObjects is: {Must be the owner to perform this operation.} I've changed nothing in the original script, nor have I changed the password or anything on the SDE databases and am using the data owners - as evidenced that I can access them both thru ArcCatalog. Is there something that has changed drastically with the new version and how do I get these to work?  Also, when writing a new script or adding a new writer, it was writing all of the data into

Hello all! FME Server 2013 Web UI seems quite slow, when trying to go to Repositories and to configure a published workspace. Running a workspace also seems to last forever, when running it from the Web UI, although the job itself takes only few seconds, when looking at the log file. Everything else works fast, like Jobs, Notifications, Schedules, Security, etc.  FME Server build is 13264 - win64. FME Server is installed with the express install on Wndows Server 2008 R2. Could this be problem in the environment? Has anyone experienced similar problems?

Hello,  Using the FME Server publishing wizard from FME Workbench, I configured my workspace to run whenever a topic was notified (subscribed to topic).  No errors were generated during completion of the wizard and the FME server web application shows no errors in the configuration of my subscription.  However, the workspace is never run when the topic is notified.  After hours of digging thru the logs, I finally found a warning in the '..\\logs\\notifier\\subscribers\\push\\push_XX.log' file:  WARN     802009     : Invalid target url for push notification: 'https://servername/fmenotification/UtilityStakingOperations/ProcessIncomingUtilityStakingEmails.fmw?opt_servicemode=async  I have no idea what's wrong with this url.  If I paste it directly into a new browser window and log i

Have anyone tried to have both FME Server 2013 and FME Server 2014 on the same server? Since they both contain a webserver etc I suspect it will not work?

Hi ...  How can I check the availablily of an FME license using python?  I want to make sure a license is available before executing a series of arcgis and fme steps.  I think I've seen it somewhere on fmepedia before but I can't find the thread now.  Ken

Hey all,  I have four workspaces that are designed to run one after the other through a notification service based on if the previous one was succesful or not. Now this works perfectly when manualy activated, but I need to transfer the process over to a Schedule as to make it run sometime during the night so it does not bog down the FME Engine. But, when this is done, it only runs the first workspace in the process and negates the success message to start up the second one.  Does the Schedule service not work well with the Notification service?

Hi dears.  Read this article on FMEpedia.  http://fmepedia.safe.com/articles/How_To/Email-Configuration-for-FME-Server-2011-2012  It is possible to configure e-mail to FME Server 2013?  Thank in advance.  Kind regards.  Ramon Wallace.   

Hi,  The data download service on our FME server has started to return URLs with http://localhost:8080 instead of the server name. I can correct the URL in my app, but I'd rather get the service to return a correct URL.  I remember seeing an article about how to change the download URLs back for Server 2012 but I can't find it now. Where do I find the settings for changing the URL? (I've already tried changing the URL pattern in the services settings).  Thanks!  

Hi there, I'm wondering to get the output log for the success or failed transaction with my own convention name. How can I afford it?  thanks

Hey there,  First time using FME Community to help with a Server related problem, but I have been wrestling with this road block for the better part of a couple days.  Within FME's Server Notification service, is there a way to set up a variable to read users as the "email to" portion of the subscription? What I am looking for is something similar to $(FME_SECURITY_USER), but within the notification outlet. I am working on a project that goes through chained FME jobs and returns a location to a file for colleagues within the office to receive (as in they will go on and activate the job themselves) via email. I have a shutdown python script on the last job at the end of the process that works fine, but I wanted to make the fail message apart of a notification service. Having a hardwired email address would be pointless for this idea.  Tl;Dr- Is there a way to integrate a universal "email to" parameter within the Notificat

Since there is no way to see old posts which have new comments I want to bump up this issue. By the way - any news on the new version of "Community" with some improvements suggested earlier?:   

What is the best way to read multiple feature types, from multiple different data sources for data download service? I expect there will be 75+ feature types, mostly coming from one or two different SDE databases, but there will also be file-based (likely file geodatabases and/or shapefiles) coming from different sources via http/ftp.  All the examples I've seen for data download have the feature types coming from one reader and use the Feature Types to Read parameter to give the user the ability to choose which feature types to download.  Based on what I've found I'm thinking I need to use a FeatureReader(s) but I couldn't find examples on how to implement it for multiple data sources. I hope that's clear and I apologize if the answer is already out there, I just couldn't find it.  Thanks, Michael

Hi,  Does anyone know where i can get a list of fme error codes and reasons for them being raised?  I'm seeing quite a few "231047:Job cancelled." responses, with no obvious reason why, and they don't appear to be user cancelled either.  the job duration of these cancalled jobs appears to be from a few minutes to a few days, but they don't appear to be tying up the engine.  also, if I look in the fmeserver.log the process often looks like it has run and finished in 4 seconds or so, but the record in the db jobs table suggests it ran for a lot longer.  can and do jobs requests get orphaned or something?  Any ideas anyone?  Nick

I have several workspaces that work fine on the desktop version but doesn't work on FME Server mainly due to memory issues. (The Server version is installed on a virtual server with 10GB of RAM and my laptop has 8GB).  This is a huge dissapointment since we have invested in this software to automate our processes and now it seems FME Server is not able to handle the same workspaces that the desktop version does. Has anyone else had the same kind of problems?  Additionally I have run intio character set issues with FME Server that I didn't have on FME desktop.

Hi All,  I am just starting to use FME server and immediately want to make use of some fancy options :)I have already been reading up the documentation and this article explains the method clearly. I basically need FME server to receive a mail with a url to a download service, download the data and trigger a database update. The example json contains :"email_publisher_content{0}": "MyBody\\r\\n", I guess this is where the url will be present (?) does anybody have some tips/experience to share about this?  Any help is appreciated, Cheers, Itay.  

Hi all,  We had a notification service setup and running on our FME Server but over the weekend the topics all disappeared. How could this have happened, any thoughts on the matter?  Best wishes, Annet  

Hi, I find a way to substract ALL overlapping polygons after a buffer operation from lines. Has anyone a solution? Thanks in advanced!

Hi dears.  There is some documentation with the installation procedure FME Server 2013 for Linux?  Thank in advance.  Kind regards.  Ramon Rocha

When uploading a workspace to FMEServer and adding Resources I want to be able to NOT upload these when uploading another workspace to the same Repository. Ie I have some large LIDAR-files which several workspaces use. However I do not want to upload them once for each workspace. Is this possible?

Hello  FME 2013 was released Jan 15 with Build 13261  Now I find Build 13264 in the download area and FME Pedia  has the info that FME 2013 is Build 13264. see: http://fmepedia.safe.com/articles/FAQ/Build-Numbers-for-FME-Versions  I couldn't find any info about the difference between 13261 and 13264 ?!  We want to build on top of official FME 2013. This confusion is unexpected and not really helpful.  Michael 

Have anyone tried FME Server on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 or 7? I see the official supported version is 5.
