FME Flow

I have looked at this: https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/678/create-a-custom-download-link-for-results-from-dat.htmlI want to be able to set the exact-filename of the zip-file within FME Workbench for the download service. Si instead of the URL like this: http://fmeserver/fmedatadownload/FME_2D764B0C_1515155526785_73956.zipI want to be able to define a parameter in a workspace called:ZIPFILENAME = myfilename.zipSo the Datadownloadservice serves the file:http://fmeserver/fmedatadownload/myfilename.zipIn other workspaces I will have completely different zip-filenames.Any way to do this? I manage to create all the da

Hi there,Successfully created an FME Flow Automation App (2023.1.1.1) that allows the user to upload files. However the customer doesn’t like the fact that the + Enter URL/Path link is shown.Where are the webpages stored on FME Flow? Can the html be modified to hide this link?

Hi Everyone,today I upgraded from FME Flow 2023.1.1.1 to 2024.2 (Express install) all went well and I do have a working environment. But I noticed something. Before the upgrade I made a screenshot of the license information and it said I had Additional Capabilities: After the upgrade (I installed a new fmelic file I received by mail from codes@safe.com ) these are missing: So, does anyone know how to fix this? If these capabilities are called upon in workbenches will they break? 

Good morning. According to this article I should be able to download resources using an URL similar to:https://fmeserver.example.com/fmerest/v3/resources/connections/FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_TEMP/filesys/testSpreadsheet.xlsxBut when I try to do so, instead of getting the file I get information about the file:http://sigdesafme.dfa.es/fmerest/v3/resources/connections/FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_DATA/filesys/GASTDM01/wrapper.logWhat I get in the web explorer is this

Hello FME Community,We are currently using the following software versions:FME Desktop: 2021.1.0.0 (20210630 - Build 21607 - WIN64, Python 3.6-3.9) FME Server: 2021.1 (Build 21607 - win64, Python 3.6-3.9) ArcGIS Enterprise: 10.9.1 (Python 3.7.11/2.7.18) ArcGIS Pro: 2.7 (Python 3.7.9)And we did not encounter any compatibility issues with our current setup regarding Python versions (as expected).Now, we have a scheduled plan to upgrade our ArcGIS software to ArcGIS Enterprise 11.3 and ArcGIS Pro 3.1 this year, followed by an upgrade to our FME software next year.Since ArcGIS Enterprise 11.3 uses Python 3.11 and ArcGIS Pro 3.1 uses Python 3.9.16, could anyone please share if you have noticed any concerns or compatibility issues when using FME Desktop and Server 2021.1 with ArcGIS

Hi all, We currently use imap to connect to office365. The FME Imap process currrently uses basic auth which will be disabled my Microsoft in October this year.  I understand that imap with Office365 will still work, but only with modern auth OAuth2. Does anyone have any experience with how to enable Oauth2 for FME IMAP, and can run thorugh how to do this. Thanks,

Hey guys, stumped with this one:I’m trying to find the distance of rail tracks between two stations - I’ve got the points for the stations and lines of the railway tracks but I need to find the route between the two stations and measure its distance.I’ve been able to limit the area but finding the most direct route and not measuring the distance of extra lines coming onto the route.Thank you in advance, any help is much appreciated.

Reading this: https://support.safe.com/hc/en-us/articles/25407546959629-Deploying-FME-Flow-on-AzureIt seems possible to deploy a finished setup on Azure using this product: https://azuremarketplace.microsoft.com/en-us/marketplace/apps/safesoftwareinc.fme-platform?tab=OverviewMy questions are. Is there anyone that have tried this approach (only 1 review right now)? And what are the estimated costs for the Azure infrastructure per month for this setup? I understand the costs are higher for more usage etc. However ther have to be a minimum estimated  cost for a “normal” system somehow.   

I have published a workspace to FME Flow. When I run it in FME Flow, I get this error in the log file:  Path Reader: Error opening the PATH Reader on folder '\\\\myservername\\T_DFshared\\FME Workflow\\All Reports to Folder5'. Could not find folder.​I checked and the server where the folder resides can communicate with the server that FME Flow is installed on.  The folder does indeed exist and has the files used in the workspace in it.  The workspace published from FME Form starts with a Directory and Pathnames Reader and runs with no errors in FME Form. ​Could this error be caused by the spaces in the folder names in the UNC path shown above or could something else be causing this error?

Hello FME’ers.We recently upgraded our FME Flow and FME Form instances from 2023.1 to 2024.1 (Build 24622). FME Flow is installed as an express installation on single Windows Server 2016 and is configured to use HTTPS and Azure AD. FME Form is also installed on the server and my laptop. When testing the connection from Form to Flow on my laptop everything was fine. I way able to connect and upload/download workbenches. However, I am unable to do the same on the server itself. When connecting as Admin, I get:Login failed (Connection Error) - Unable to connect to FME Flow.When trying to connect was my user I get:Connection Storage: Request to update access token failed. (HTTP Error 'HTTP/1.1 400')I then went to refresh the Azure AD connection and got the following error:Server's certificate does not match the URL.

I installed FME Flow 2024 and configured it to have Version Control on (without the GitHub option). I published a workspace from FME Form. Then, in FME Form, I altered the workspace (added a transformer) and re-published it, replacing the first version.However, when I click History, I get zero results, both at the top-Workspaces level and at the repository level.Anyone have insight to add to this?

One of my teammembers suffered a hardware crash recently. He got a replacement laptop from IT but it’s performance is terrible. When opening the Inspector, 3D mode returns next image:It is a Lenovo Thinkpad P15 with an i7, 64GB ram and an NVIDEA RTX A2000 GPU. Windows 11.My machine is almost the same spec and works flawless. Windows 10.I know this question is not really FME related but what would be logical things to check / try to get it running the inspector in 3D?What we did was install the latest videocard driver, but this did not change anything. Our IT is only staffed to solve Office365 problems, no help from there.

Hi everybody! How can I fix the HTTP run time error? We have Publication that monitors and email Inbox.  A service request on Cityworks is created when an email is received with a GIFF attachment. SR created should have the GIFF attachment but it randomly fails to attach the GIFF for some SRs. And gives HTTP time out error. I have checked the API calls and they look good in Postman. I checked with my network team as well, no issue on that side either. The log file indicates that it is 401 error- but Authentication is also intact as other SRs gets created successfully with GIFF attached. Please see the image below for errors. Any insights is highly appreciated. Thank you!  

I am encountering the error below, but I am unsure of the cause of this issue.We have installed FME Form & Flow 2023.2.2 and ArcGIS Pro (version 32_188049) on the server PC. 94 2024-12-1 14:14:22 | Unable to perform any licensing related tasks. Please check your Esri ArcGIS Compatibility workspace parameter, found in Navigator -> Workspace Parameters -> Translation. This 64-bit version of FME requires ArcGIS Desktop along with 64-bit Background Geoprocessing; ArcGIS Pro; or ArcGIS Enterprise. Refer to this this article http://fme.ly/qua for more details 95 2024-12-1 14:14:22 | GEODATABASE_FILE writer: An error has occurred. Check the logfile above for details

After I finished the installation to 2024.2 (upgrading from 2023.1) I seemed to have the same issue as described in this post: So I followed all the suggestions in the Best answer by laurawatsafe.(I blured out url's and server names in my screenshots for privacy reasons)As described by laurawatsafe I ended up with both localhost and Serverhostname. In the screenshot below you can clearly see that at the moment after I stopped the Engines and was able to remove localhost, there were 0 standard engines assigned to localhost.So at this point I thought my problem was fixed. (I am wondering why this issue is in 2024.2 as it was fixed in 2018/2019. So this bug seems to have reappeare

Out-of-the-box, FME Flow has an admin login for administration (member of fmeadmin and fmesuperuser).As a measure of added security, can a different, less common, login name be used for administration? In other words, if I were to create a login for administration purpose named MickeyMouse, add MickeyMouse to fmeadmin and fmesuperuser roles, and disable admin, does that work? Are there gotcha’s with doing that? Is it a measure of added security?

Hi everyone,I am having an Issue which is hard to provoke (because it dies not happen always) and our FME support is also not getting further.We are experiencing in FME Form und Flow Version 1.2.1 in Test and Production Environment that the Workspaces with Esri Writer (after our own analysis) are failing. Also after our analysis I changed the option from persistent connection from no to yes and also installed ArcGIS Pro 3.3.2 only on test Environment.On Test Environment I have Oracle 19.24 and on Productive 19.21. with Spatial Addon and when it occurs both are sending an exception (ORA-24550: signal received: Unhandled exception: Code=c0000005 Flags=0) and FMEEngine.exe and Form exe is shutting down with Kernel Failure (windows server 2022 VM).Talked with Windows server Team - they are saying it is FME Issue caused.Talked with DB Admins - they are saying it is FME Application Issue.Talked with FME Support - they are saying it is Oracle.

We have recently upgraded FME flow to the latest 2023.2.2. I am having difficulty locating runtime errors for the job because when you click these runtime errors it will take you to the logs section where you have multiple logs. It's difficult to find which log file has this error. Previous versions directly took you to the error description while this version is not. Please guide me if I am doing anything wrong.Thank you, 

I have workspaces that are run from a job submitter in an automation. Is there away to kick off another workspace if it fails? I want to send an SQS message back to our SQS Queue with success or failure messaging. The successful message is easy but I can’t figure out how to send a failure message unless it fails though a specific transformer. 

HiIn our recent webinar about streamlining metadata automation we got a survey question which showed I didn’t make the functionality clear:“I am not seeing how this will help.  We have over 500 different layers, the bulk example showed over a hundred layers being updated but they were all the exact same layer, which is a situation in my opinion that doesn't exist for most people.”My demo indeed showed 145 portal items of the same type having their metadata updated according to some admittedly bogus business rules.  I failed to make the point that any number of any item type could be handled.  For example if contact detail changes meant a phone number or email contact needed to be changed you might search all items for the string to replace, or if you knew only shared items of a particu

I’m new to FME tool and I wanted to pull data from Google BigQuery tables and convert into GeoDatabase and shapefile. I'm using FME Workbench version 2024.1.1 and I'm experiencing an issue with using Google BigQuery as a reader. But I’ve installed Google BigQuery as a transformer and attempted to pull data, but no data is being retrieved. I’ve also authenticated using a service account key file, but the data still isn’t showing up.

I have an Automation on FME Server, which runs a workbench and that workbench runs a SystemCaller which runs a python script.Occasionally, the python script fails to run, and I want this failure to be recognised by the Automation, so that it sends me an email stating that it has failed.How do I do this?I can see how to set up the SystemCaller so that the Output Exit Code Attribute has a value of nonzero (representing failure)But how does this trigger the workbench to fail inside the Automation?I need the Automation to recognise the failure event so that it can generate an email stating that.

Hi, This is just for esthetics: I geht houndreds of warnings from FME_Server runnung an Job with some SystemCallers that copy files with robocopy. Although everything works fine and the the files are copied, "Failed to Execute" does not look nice. SystemCaller_12: Failed to Execute `robocopy \\\\RZ2-ZDA-01\\Data$\\Aktuell\\INSPIRE \\\\RZ2-ZDA-01\\Data$\\Historisch\\INSPIRE CP_CadastralParcel.gpkg' If I use the commandline "cmd" from Win2019 on the FME-Server then I dont get any warning.   

Hello,I have a question on the automatic rotation of 3D objects with FME. First I placed my 3D object on different points with the workflow explained in the following tutorial: https://support.safe.com/hc/en-us/articles/25407425765133-Creating-and-Using-Geometry-Instances. Now I want to rotate the 3D objetcs (electric poles railway) in the direction of a 2D Polyline (rail axis). Is there a possibility to rotate the 3D poles rectangular to the rail axis? Best regardsEric

I’m trying to update FME Flow from version 2023.1 to 2024.2. Upgrading In Place, On the Same Machine.I want to use the encryption key from the previous FME Flow installation so I could restore the previous configuration in the new installation. This means I also want to update my FME Flow Database password in fmeDatabaseConfig.txt.Before starting the newly installed FME Flow, the encryptConfigSetting.sh script works and outputs the password in the format of DB_PASSWORD=fme_enc:xxx.After I’ve started the FME Flow, the script does not work anymore:Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/codec/digest/DigestUtils        at COM.safe.fmeserver.encryption.FMEEncryptionKeyFileUtils.computeChecksum(FMEEncryptionKeyFileUtils.java:22)        at COM.safe.fmeserver.encryption.FMEEncryptionKeyAccessorFile.calculateChecksum(FMEEncryptionKeyAccessorFile.java:86)        at COM.safe.fmeserver.encryption.FM
