FME Server will not create new geodatabase

We're trying to create a new geodatabase but are getting the following error: Geodatabase Error (-2147024894): The system cannot find the file specified.842021-4-14 08:54:44 Could not open File Geodatabase dataset `\\\\srvarcgis\\data\\Projects\\Data\\test.gdb' for writing I have verified that FME Server has read/write access to that path by reading from a file and by writing to a different file format (CSV), so it's not CIFS permissions issues. We have also tried both geodatabase APIs (FGDB and Open FGDB). The issue occurs regardless which user is used to run the workbench. The issue occurs on multiple workbenches. What else could we try looking at?

Is it possible to launch an Engine pod on a different cluster and register it in the core service deployed on other cluster? I want to have 2 engines, but located on different clusters.

Unable to create a workbench directory (error 500)

Greetings, Once in a while, our workbench using the "dataupload" service seems to return an error 500. We do not see any logs related to disk space, nor should it as it is only using ~20% of the available space. The following log is shown in the logs of "Resources -> Logs -> service -> current -> fmeserverweb_dataupload.log": Fri-12-Feb-2021 07:55:46.873 AM INFORM http-nio-8080-exec-22 419011 : Creating new request object: path level = "1", requested path = "", session ID = "f257b28e-bdd2-49df-84eb-007d69dabc5e", uploaded files = [], workspace path = "/<repository>/<wb_name>.fmw", retrieve absolute paths = "true", extract files = "false"java.io.IOException: Unable to create directory: /data/fmeserverdata/resources/system/temp/upload/<repository>/<wb_name>.fmw/f257b28e-bdd2-49df-84eb-007d69dabc5e at COM.safe.web.upload.StoreManager.setup(StoreManager.java:232) at COM.safe.web.upload.StoreManager.<init>(StoreManager.java:226) at COM.safe.we

How to set a new attribute value which is also an attribute?

I have a set of data which contains an attribute name (header/title) which I have to use an an attribute value for a new attribute. At the moment, I am using attribute creator to create a new attribute and then attribute manager to add this to existing data. However I am unable to set the new attribute value as one of the attribute name of existing data (which I read in using reader transformer). Any help will be highly appreciated.

Using an automation trigger webhook as a Teams outgoing webhook?

Has anyone configured an FME trigger webhook as an outgoing webhook in Teams? It'd be very nice to just @ an automation without leaving Teams. I've got an automation triggered by a webhook that can be triggered no problem using curl, but trying to use that webhook in Teams gets an immediate failure ("Sorry, there was a problem encountered with your request"). It looks like Teams may be expecting a particular response (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45743782/custom-bot-always-replies-with-an-error) and I'm not sure whether FME provides that / how to troubleshoot from here.

I have noticed that FME Desktop startup is very slow when using VPN. It can take 2-3 minutes just to start FME, without loading a workspace. When not using VPN, it takes about 5 seconds to start FME.

The same problem occurs when starting a workspace. When using VPN, it can take 1-2 minutes just to start the workspace. Without VPN, it´s instantaneous. Any suggestions on how to solve this? I use Windows 10, 64 bit, FME 2020.0 using SCCM, fixed license.

Multiple Publisher Notifications With Same IMAP Email

FME server documentation states:Note: Each IMAP Publisher created on FME Server must reference a unique email account. You cannot create multiple IMAP Publishers that reference the same address.However, I have done some testing with this and I have created more than one publisher with the same IMAP email. Bother publishers work. Am I missing something? Is there going to be a future error or fault? Where is the conflict with this? Thanks.

Request URI not working in Google Sheets web connection

I'm trying to fix our Google Sheets connection in FME Server after a restore but can't get the redirect URI set correctly. It's currently set to http://127.0.0.1:8080/fmeoauth. The Google authorization goes all the way to the "Allow" button before I get a "This page isn't working (ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE)" error. I've tried different URI strings, including http://127.0.0.1:8080/fmeserver/fmeoauth, but get the same error. When replacing 127.0.0.1 with localhost, or the hostname, the Google auth goes nowhere. This is a private FME Server instance that is firewalled and has no public access. What else can I try?

Downloading and comparing two datasets (from WMS to Shape)

Hello, I've made a workbench that downloads data to Shape automatically once per month from https://geodata.nationaalgeoregister.nl/hwh/eenheden/wms/v1_0?request=getcapabilities&service=wms (WMS). This time I would like to make a workbench that compares the geometry and administrative data from the Shape files with each other (January-February, February-March and so on). I am thinking about doing this with the ChangeDetector transformer, but that's where my idea stops. Could anyone give me advice on this? Many thanks,Claire

Why automation not working when repeat 1 day interval?

However when I stop the automation and set the interval for 1 day at 7.00am, the automation is not working after I checked again the service the other day. Any idea on how can I resolve the issue?

FME Server App download link is wrong

While following the tutorial of https://community.safe.com/s/article/tutorial-custom-data-delivery-using-fme-server and creating an App Server with the "austinDownload.fmw", I notice the download link is wrong: "https://dev.fme.geosmartdesign.com:443/fmedatadownload/results/FME_11246665_1617281097879_2096.zip" alt="https://https://https://<redacted>:443/fmedatadownload/results/<FME_uuid>.zip".

What is the service (windows based FME Server) which performs the import of a project?

I'm trying to figure out why I'm unable to import a project, I'd like to know the service which performs the import to make sure I have the user running the services correct. TIA

It seems FME Server 2021 is still having problems with SSO as described in "Known Issue: FME Server SSO failed login due to insufficient credentials" Is this known and is SAFE working on the issue? Or are there other solutions/workarounds?

Call FME server from QGIS and import the returned data (geopackage)

Hi All,Does anyone have any experience and examples for calling FME server from a QGIS processing script? I have published some (data download) workspaces in FME server into workspace apps for my end users within the company. They really like this, but they would prefer not to leave QGIS. I would like the script to place the zip file returned bij FME server in a folder and unpack it. Thank you.

Help on FME features - self-documentation, creating/deploying REST APIs, Monitoring

I am tasked to asses FME and determine if it will be a good fit for our organization as main integration platform. I have done some research on FME and have few questions (where i could not find much documentation):Does FME have any self-documentation feature or 3rd party add-on which can be used to achieve this? How does most organization maintain design documentation for workspaces?Can FME Server expose REST APIs that are created by developers or we absolutely need to get a 3rd party API Gateway (AWS, etc.) for hosting APIs, security, etc?What capabilities FME provides for monitoring (performance, errors, etc.) or all of this has to be designed by developers?What additional tools are required in the Integration Stack to support basic patterns like APIs and Messaging ? What does your implementation have.Any pointers to documentation that

Server Apps- How do I post the app I created through the server on a public site?

HeyI recently learned through this webinar: "Creating No Code Web Apps with FME Server" how to create an app with the help of the server, and thus optimize our work.It is explicitly stated that the application can be embedded in any external site. Just copy and paste.When I tried to create the app, it would not let me access the app from an external computer. (The server is currently installed on only one computer.)What do you need to do to have outside access to these apps? Thanks Dor
