Dear FME users,Already for days we're trying to get an automation to work with a HTTPCaller using certificates.The HTTPcaller works when we put in the HTTPCaller the option 'Verify HTTPS Certificates' to 'No’, see printscreen below.However when we publish the workbench to FME Flow and run it from an automation we are getting the following two errors:Aanroep_gateway_lijst_ftp (HTTPFactory): [1]: HTTP transfer error: Problem with the local SSL certificateAanroep_gateway_lijst_ftp (HTTPFactory): An error occurred while accessing the URL 'https://tst….We configured different things to get it work, first of all we added the server certificate (of the server to which we are trying to connect with the HTTPCaller) to the Java keystore, as described in: SSL Certificate Handling for FME Transformers – FME Support Centerkeytool -import -trustcacerts -keystore "G:\FMEServer\Utilities\jre\lib\security\cacerts" -storepass changeit -noprompt -alias aseqltst100Root -file "<location file>"And:key
I started protecting my workspaces with passwords because they sometimes contain sensitive informations (like embedded connections) and I noticed a weird issue when I uploaded them on FME Flow 2024.2.5.I use the parameter FME_MF_NAME in different places, for naming different outputs. As soon I added the password, the workspaces started to fail. Notably I have one workflow which requires launching multiple workspaces sequentially, the main one launching the others with FMEFlowJobSubmitter. All the protected workspaces have their FME_MF_NAME overwrited by the FME Flow. All the logs show the same message upstream, something like this:FME Configuration: FME_MF_NAME is 'wb-tmpXXXX'Which is weird because the parameter of the workspace is correctly set with a message like this:`--FME_MF_NAME' `myworkspacename.fmw'Using the parameter FME_MF_NAME during the job gives 'wb-tmpXXXX' instead of ‘myworkspacename.fmw'.I can find workarounds but it is annoying and I am wondering if it is a bug or a no
Hi,I am using FME 2026.1, trying to create a map using AttributeCreator+ PDFStyler.However, when I set my label height to for example, Arial,5, my text comes out bold. When I select Arial,5,BOLD, my text comes back looking regular. Is that a bug just for me? I was stuck on it for ages trying to figure it out. Yes, it is also the case when i set a font size like 5 (not from an attribute).I am wondering if anyone else has this issue.
The Black line starting from left should align(shown in yellow) with red line.how to accomplish this in fme.Polygon 1 and 2 belongs to one layer and polygon 3 is from another layer.
For one of the first versions of Data Virtualization, it is required to create a work-around for IIS. Unfortunately it is not possible to react on the knowledge article directly anymore.I just updated to build 25835 and after a quick test I see the work-around is still required. From which version onwards is this not necessary any more?
I’ve tried reviewing results from /schedules. This doesn’t seem to include our schedule triggers in automations.Neither /automations or /automations/{id} return the required information.Can anyone point me in the right direction?Thanks!AW
Hi all!In our 2025.2 Flow installation we have AD synchronization and authentication for quite sometime, with some 100+ users and a number of groups. Now we are about to deploy SAML - I am able to get it to work for a new user/role, but if there is an existing user/role there is a collision, and the process fails.Am I understanding it correctly that I actually have to delete (or at least rename) all users and roles before we can start using SAML fully?What we see in the logs:417551 : An error occurred during SAML login: Specified user role already exists.417551 : An error occurred during SAML login: Non SAML user account "nordpil" already exists. Please contact system administrator for support.
Hello community,for a few days, I have been struggling with our FME Flow. It occasionally throwsand I am the admin, I asked myself and… crickets.The only change we did recently is a Python library install.FME Flow gets in this error communicating state and then recovers. We tried restarting FME Flow, it likely made some difference (I am not sure whether it indeed fixed the problem even for a short period of time as FME Flow works between these messages anyway), but it didn’t last.This is FME Flow 2024.0 build 24612.Any ideas will be much appreciated.Thank you :)
Hi,I need to make the Esri Arcgis connector available for all users within a APP-V packages, however these connectors install under the app data folder. Is there any way to install these connectors on a program files or data folder so that all the users can make usage of the Hub connectors. Is there a way to change this path? Thanks in advance. I already tried to copy the files to the program data however FME doesn't see the files and is unable to access the connectors. Yours sincerely.

Hi all, we are on Flow 2025.2 and we use Geometry Parameter for quite a few ws apps. Now we are living with the bug FMEFLOW-26285Changes to the default basemap of a geometry user parameter under the Parameter Defaults when creating/editing a Workspace app do not get applied to the Workspace app. Users accessing the workspace app will see that the default basemap is unchanged. Any tips for a workaround? Can one change the default using javascript in the webpage possibly?
Hello,I am trying to run a workspace using FMEFlowJobSubmitter to our FME Flow server, but the job submission fails.The log shows the following error:This workflow was working with our previous installation using FME Flow 2023, but since our new installation the job submission fails.Does anyone know what could cause this error?Thank you.
Hi have a flow which takes in data from a secure file transfer protocol, processes the data and produces two CSV files. Currently these files are written to a local drive. How can they be saved to the FME server so that they can be used in other workflows during a particular session and then deleted afterward? Im guessing a flow parameter needs to be created and then pointed to by the writer but I really cant figure this out exactly
Testing after upgrading preprod to FME 2025.2.1 and it appears that an issue that would previously (FME Flow 2024.1) be reported back from the database, i.e. incorrect user/incorrect syntax do not appear in the log filee.g. running a workspace with an SQLExecutor with a query with incorrect syntax in FME Form 2025.2.1 results in an error, e.g.“java.sql.SQLException: Line 1: Incorrect syntax near '}'.”No such message appears when running the workspace in FME Flow. The workspace fails but no SQLException is returnedThis appears to be the same whether you connect with using JDBC or Microsoft SQL Server (JDBC).
Has anyone ever encountered this system event message previously?Event Description: Triggered whenever an error message is logged to fmeserver.log.Event Title: Error Message LoggedMessage: Parameter macro error for job requestThis is occurring when a workspace in an automation completes successfully and should be triggering a downstream workspace but instead this message appears in the system events and no workspace is triggered. The parameters in the workspace that is failing to be triggered are not dynamic and have not changed recently. Since the automation has been switched on it has run successfully 139 times but we’ve now seen these messages in 5 of the past 6 runs. FME Flow 2024.1
HelloWe have just updated FME Flow to 2025.2.4. As we also need the qfieldcloud-sdk module, I installed it with pip-install "C:\Program Files\FMEFlow\Server\fme\fmepython313\python.exe" -m pip install qfieldcloud-sdkSomehow this installation got mixed up and the module was installed in python 3.12"C:\Program Files\FMEFlow\Server\fme\fmepython313\python.exe" -m pip show qfieldcloud-sdkName: qfieldcloud-sdkVersion: 0.13.0Summary: The official QFieldCloud SDK and CLI.Home-page: https://github.com/opengisch/qfieldcloud-sdk-pythonAuthor:Author-email: Ivan Ivanov <ivan@opengis.ch>License:Location: C:\Program Files\FMEFlow\Server\fme\fmepython312\Lib\site-packagesRequires: certifi, charset-normalizer, click, idna, pathvalidate, requests, requests-toolbelt, tqdm, urllib3Required-by:(» Location: C:\Program Files\FMEFlow\Server\fme\fmepython312\Lib\site-packages)Previously, we used FME Flow 2024.1.2.1, which used python 3.12, FME Flow now uses python 3.13 and as the module is installed in
Hi FME community,I am trying to fanout to a GDB using FME 2025.1.2 in windows. I keep getting this error :Esri Geodatabase Writer: Feature Type Definition 'd_y_n' was requested, but not defined. Please visit https://www.safe.com/supportGEODATABASE_FILE writer: An error has occurred. Check the logfile above for details When i just simply export without fanout it works fine. I have tried removing fme_template_feature_type using attributemanager (even though it is not an attribute in my database) also tried AttributeKeeper. Nothing seems to work. Thank you
I am logging in FME FLOW on our local FME Server (v25.2.1) using my AD Credentials that I manually enter. When I get logged in, I try to open several workbenches that I had previously uploaded and to which I had full access. However, I get a popup message “Unauthorized request by user (myaccountname) due to lack of proper permissions or the object does not exist.”I contacted the local FME administrator who advised that my account had full permissions to the workbenches I was trying to access. He advised I log off and back in several times, the implication that he was reviewing or changing something on his end. And always the same resulting error message.The administrator is adamant that I should be able to access the workbenches, however, I cannot.I had asked that the issue be escalated but the administrator was unsure where to escalate the issue.I am looking for any advice on the issue.Thanks in advance
Has anyone else run into issues with how things are displayed in FME Flow 2025.2.1 Examples: Engine Assignment Rules - we have two hosts which differ in name by suffix only. The way engines are displayed on the Engine Assignment Rules tab means you can’t quickly tell which engines are assigned as the critical bit is displayed as … (the full names are available on mouseover) The hostnames displayed in No proxy also have their urls partially replaced with …. so there appears to be no way to actually check via the user interface what values are entered here. In 2024.1 these values were displayed in full
I have an automation that trigger an HTTP Request to get informations on a job :host.com/fmeapiv4/jobs/{user.id} The HTTP request is send and I get my response : {"id":122,"engineHost":"localhost","engineName":"localhost_Engine1",... ,"elapsedTime":29176,"cpuTime":7687,"cpuPercent":26.346997532218264,"peakMemoryUsage":186314752,"lineCount":2439,"warningCount":27,"errorCount":0,"remoteEngineName":"","remoteEngineJobLogUrl":""}I would like to send an other http request based on the content of the body response :host.com/fmeapiv4/accounts/{runtimeUserID} The runtimeUserID key is a key in the http.body attribute which is a JSON value.I cannot extract some portions of this JSONI have try to get other keygs but it always failed :{http.body}.{runtimeUserID} {http.body.runtimeUserID} {runtimeUserID}and lots of combinations…Is it possible and if so, how to achieve this ?Thank you
As I understand things, currently one can only use the Esri enterprise geodatabase formats on a Windows host. When moving to kubernetes it is then needed to use queue control to direct those jobs to Windows VMs, which is not ideal.When can we expect those drivers to also work on Linux? And is the problem on the Esri side or the Safe Software side?
Hello!After an update from FME-flow 2024 to 2025 and after the update some roles are not able to open the repositories under workspaces. They get the message ‘Unauthorized request by user <user> due to lack of proper permissions or the object does not exist’. I'm a superuser and able to open the repositories. Is there a new option under User Management I'm not aware of? Or does someone know a solution?
Hi all,I am struggling to get the following to work. In my IT environment we use APP-v to deploy FME workbench. Now I want to automate the license within the package. So I installed FME workbench but is automatically opens the licensing manager, which is nice but I want to specify the license myself. What file can I make that I can implement in the application so it instantly recognizes its license. I tried the admin guide but did not work. We have floating licenses.So what file can I make to specify the license within the application, so that users don't have to enter it themselves.
Hi Community,I tried to use a DB Connection as Deployment Parameter and set it as Default value in the User Parameters in Workbench as shown in Screenshot below. However when I publish this workspace to Flow the User Parameter with DB Connection is empty and I need to select again the DB Connection manually (2nd Screenshot).Is this an expected behaviour? In my logic the User Parameter should be set automatically (works like this e.g. for Text Deployment Parameters as User Parameter). A workaround I found was to delete the User Parameter before deployment then the Job in Flow uses directly the correct DB Connection.Thanks for your response in advance - BR Kai.
