FME Flow

Can FME connect/read the database files of the 4D system? (extensions like: .4DD, .4DB)

Hi friends, how to add the display of my data to the map (for example, the outline of houses or some zones) when activating the window for selecting an area to FME Server.

I'm trying to learn how to leverage FME Server with web services and have a couple of questions. Been following a few tutorials and built a workbench that:Reads a JSON file using TextLineReader Massages the dataWrites data to databaseNow I would like to publish this as web service... basically I'd like to be able to send JSON to an FME URL and let server pick it up there. I know you it's possible to run a workbench from a URL. But every tutorial I've tried to follow to do this has led me nowhere. I always end up unable to publish to Data Streaming service because there "Nothing To Select".Would appreciate any guidance as to what tutorial might work for me. In the meantime, I will dig into the documentation here:https://s3.amazonaws.com/gitboo

I have a time series data historian that I have established an ODBC connection to successfully. I can pull tables in and have filtered the data by time to reduce the records while I am testing. The table I am attempting to bring has a field called _index. I am not sure why they used a reserved word, much less started a column name with an underscore. It is causing FME to choke every time, understandably so. Is it possible to remove or have FME ignore that field and bring the rest of the data into workbench?

I have a copy of FME Server for Linux. After looking at the documentation, can I integrate Windows Active Directory/LDAP from a Windows Domain Controller? I didn't see any RHEL 7 'linux' based configurations in the guide...

ProblemThe problems are caused by the underlying functionality of how FME Core downloads the email attachment and with the default FME Server Cleanup setup One of the functionalities that will be broken with this, is, for example, Backing up the FME Server. Resulting in a `COM.safe.fmeserver.configuration.migration.FMEConfigurationException: java.io.FileNotFoundException:` for the attachment. This is reproduced with the following steps:Create an Automation Trigger of an email (SMTP)Define a custom "Download Attachments To (optional)" path. Preferable something that is not covered by the default FME Cleanup, like`$(FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_DATA)/custom/mail/received/`Make sure this is triggered and the attachm

I have 3 layers of data, lines, points and labels setup in feature writer, runs fine on my desktop but will not write the points on fme server

Hi all,I have an FME Server automation that runs a number of workspaces one at a time. In the first workspace I want to apply some kind of action depending on whether there are any features on a certain transformer output port. For example, I can place a NoFeaturesTester on this port, and:If it reports no features, I would like to inform the user in some way and continue with the remaining automationIf it reports that there are features, then I would like to send the user a list of these features (via email perhaps), and also look to pause or terminate the Automation.Can anyone advise a sensible way of doing this?Thanks,RB     

I have a scheduled job set up on FME Server (2020.0.1. Build 20218) that had been working fine for over a month. Then all of a sudden it stopped earlier this week. The workspace can be run on its on in FME Server without issue.  I reviewed the "fmescheduler.log" and found this: Fri-12-Feb-2021 11:42:23.525 AM  INFORM  QuartzScheduler_FMEServerQuartzScheduler-SERVERNAMEHERE51612808703694_MisfireHandler  406432 : Trigger misfired (Category: FME Name: FME_RunStatsForDashboards).Fri-12-Feb-2021 11:46:23.530 AM  INFORM  QuartzScheduler_FMEServerQuartzScheduler-SERVERNAMEHERE1612808703694_MisfireHandler  406432 : Trigger misfired (Category: COM.safe.fmeserver.CleanupManager Name: CleanupDoResourceCheck). After deleting and rebuilding the scheduled job, it continued to fail. I republished the workspace, deleted the scheduled job and still nothing. I then restarted the FME Server Services. After the restart, I a

Houston,We have a problem with the File Geodatabase writer that requires ArcGIS (not the API version). It performs differently in different virtual environments (Citrix) with different FME versions, on the same File Geodatabase. We suspect that the differences in the virtual environments are the cause of this, because the desired functionality is offered in all FME versions. We'd like to know which parts of the ArcGIS Desktop installation are used by FME, when writing to a File Geodatabase, in order to get to the bottom of the issue.  The details of the situation are as follows. As mentioned, we have two different virtual environments:A production environment with FME 2019 32-bits served in a "bubble". This is combined with ArcGIS Desktop 10.6.1, in a direct install (no bubble).A testing environment with FME 2019 64-bits and ArcGIS Desktop deployed the same way as the production environment In the productio

I have a customer that 4-5 times a year need to run an fme workspace on an offline computer. This computer can not be connected to any network at all.They have floating licenses and now would like to borrow a license without connecting to client to the license server.Is this possible?

I have amended the FME_SHAREDRESOURCED_DATA directory to E:/FMEServerShare//resources/data/ which was previously set to the default location in ProgramData. In the workbench I have a HTTPCaller that drops the file downloaded to $(FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_DATA)\\Geodesys\\....

Is it possible to use CAS as a single-sign on mechanism for FME Server? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Authentication_Service It is not clear to me whether SAML would cover this. If I understand it well CAS 3.0 also allows SAML https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43676624/what-is-the-relation-between-cas-vs-saml

Hello,I have recently installed FME Server 2019.2.3.2 (32 Bit) and have been using it without any issues up until this point. I modified a config property in the 'fmeServerConfig.txt' file and even since then, the manager doesn't want to load correctly. After that, I restored the config back to what I had it at before (when it was working) and restarted the FME Server Services, the machine, etc. Has anyone else ran into this issue before? Have added some screenshots below: Thank you  

Assume I have an automation that starts with a directory watch to capture an updated zip file in a folder. The zip file name is passed as a parameter (File Path) to the 1st workspace. This workspace is followed by a second workspace, which needs to use the same zip file as a parameter. I can not figure out an easy way to feed the File Path (zip file path) to the second workspace as a parameter, other than writing it to a text file and let the 2nd workspace to read from the file. Any advice to make this easier and streamline? The FME server is 2020.1.3.

How can I bypass the problem that appears to me while trying to migrate from windows server 2012​ to 2016 R2, I have an error "Too long Path" , how can just skip this? I use Robocopy​

Hello,we are developing an application which is using Data Download Service. User gets an email with download link in it. When the dataset is already deleted from FME Server, user is redirected to a web page "Download Dataset Expired".Is it possible to customize this page? For example to translate it etc.?Or is there some way to automatically redirect the user to some other web page? Rudolf

I installed fme server "FME Server 2020.2.2 Build 20817 - win64" on a new machine, and then restored from backup "FME Server 2020.2 Build 20787 - win64". The restore appeared to go successfully however all jobs fail with a message like "Error: The log file for job ID "6" does not exist". I suspect there's a path somewhere that needs to be updated. How do I locate where it might be configured?http://SERVER:8080/fmeserver/#/systemevents/history?page=1 shows over 250 events so it's not that logs can't be written at all. I found a thread mentioning this message at

Hi everyone, I have tried to set up push notifications to our phones and Pushbullet has done an amazing job for Android devices, easy to set up, and more importantly, it's FREE.  For anyone who is interested, I've used this transformer from FME hub https://hub.safe.com/publishers/jrn/transformers/pushbullet.  However, Pushbullet doesn't support iOs devices while all of our work phones are iPhones so now I am looking for an alternative option for Pushbullet that can be used for iPhone.  Would be much appreciated if you could recommend any other alternative open-source option.  Many thanks!

Hi, In a workspace I used a few FMEServerJobSubmitters. It worked fine for a few days but suddenly the error message “credentials for user are invalid”.I can still login to the FME server with the same credentials as the workspace works with. How is it possible that these credentials are not held? Greetings 

So I have a Coordinate System Name Parameter and in Workbench I get this nice gallery to help me pick and choose. There are several columns of data to use for searching or sorting...very nice indeed.However now if I publish my workspace to FME Server, we get this:At this point the user would need to know what they're looking for, but without the metadata shown in the Gallery, you don't know exactly what you're picking especially if the end user is not a coordinate system expert (myself included!). For example I'd like to search for a UTM in meters, something in central US,

Hi list.We're trying out the streaming capabilities of workspaces in FME Server (2020.2).When you upload a workspace, you can check streaming, and under its settings, you need to set one reader and one writer as streaming input and output resp. Both are mandatory, you can't upload if any of them isn't set.I did that with a workspace, using an ACAD input and a JSON output.However, when we ran the workspace, it erred because it couldn't create the (testing) JSON output file. Yes, the same transformer that ought to stream its output. Only when I disabled the writer (and re-uploaded), I could run the workspace.We're using the post

I'm configuring fme (fme server 2019.1.3.1) to use https.
