FME Flow

Hello, I've recently upgraded FME Server to the latest build (19801) because of the recently flagged security vulnerability involving Active Directory. Followed the required steps, i.e Backup / Restore Test, then Uninstall current Version / Install latest Version / restore backup. All went well. 1) However my "Favorite Workspaces" have disappeared but not the end of the world. 2) I'm still having to re-adjust the amount of FME engine required after server reboot (on going) which involves "Refreshing" of FME Server licence. I only have one for now but FME Server detects 2 after server reboot. Are points 1) & 2) known issues? Thanks Sameer

Hi all, when you run a job manually on FME server there is a field to receive email with the job result. However when I want to schedule the same job there is no such field. How can I receive a email with the result of a scheduled job? This should be very easy like in when you run a job one off. Thanks.

I have a customer who currently has only one floating license for their enterprise. We would like to configure our workflow such that it waits until the license is available to checkout and then proceed with the translations. Is there a way to have FME check if a license is available so that I can write a loop that effectively pauses the translation until the license is available?

I built an automation with 14 workspaces in a row. If one of them fails, then the whole automation stops. Sometimes a job fails, because it can't connect to the database because of network issues. But usually after some seconds it would be ok again. As the whole automation runs during the night for about four hours, it would be very practical if it was possible, to resubmit a job, that fails and continue the automation. I found this post about resubmitting jobs: https://knowledge.safe.com/questions/83248/automatically-resubmitting-failed-jobs.html But how can I continue the automation after resubmitting one of the jobs in it? Thanks in advance Vera

Hello Team, Can somebody help me to get timestamp in milli seconds for FME server jobs, As of now jobs start and finish time are showing in the log as 2019-11-20 08:33:56|, I need to incorporate milli seconds also to these FME server logs. Thanks in Advance.

Is it possible to have FME Desktop/Server set ups in windows os and respective floating licenses are configured in Linux.??

Want to build a set up license manager in Linux and FME Desktop and server in windows os. Please let me know is this possbile

Hello list, I have the task to configure my fme 2018 server to provide * a dedicated highspeed queue for fire department tasks * a default queue for all the other work The condition is that the highspeed tasks have to run "immediately" and should never be blocked/delayed/slowed down by workspaces running in the default queue. Is it correct to create two different server queues with separate engines and do the job assignment through different repositories for a) the fire department's workspaces and b) the rest of the pack, or are there other/better mechanisms available. Especially I am interested in the job priority parameter that I can assign to the queues. Best regards - Markus

After upgrading a Schemamapper transformer from FME 2016 to FME 2018, I get an Connection error from within the Schemamapper (pointing to an Access database) : "Connection does not exist", even though nothing has changed. It is an upgrade problem cause any workflow with that Schemamapper in FME 2016 works without problem The same workflow opened in FME 2018 desktop has a red settings button and the abovementioned error. What to do?

Hi everyone, We're currently running the FME Workbench in an app-v package. As users launch the application through Liquit/Citrix, they first need to select their license (which needs to be checked out/borrowed from the license server). This is perfectly described in the following article: https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Desktop_Documentation/FME_Desktop_Admin_Guide/FMEInstallation/Configuring_FME_Desktop_to_Use_a_Floating_License_3_Server_Redundant.htm The customer is now asking/requesting if the steps where we select a license and assign it can be removed by automatically selecting the license (as we only have one license, there's no other option available at the moment). This would mean that the workbench would automatically launch instead of the pop-up from the Licensing assistant.Is this possible? If yes, do we need to define it in a configuration file? And which file would this be? Thanks in advance for all the help.

For some reason my Server Apps no longer have a "Run" button when they are executed. See image below. All the Server Apps are executing workspaces that are in the same Repository. The only change that was made to the Repository was giving an additional user permission to access the Repository. The Server App tokens are all still viable. Any thoughts on how to recover? Thanks, Frank

Definitely need to be able to preserve existing GlobalID. This is important for key relationships for relationship classes between features and tables.

Hi, After upgrading our FME Server from version 2017 to 2019.1, we get errors when running workbenches that uses the FMEserverjobsubmitter. We have a large workbench that is scheduled to run on the FME Server at 00:01 every night. It forks off other workbenches by running the FMEserverjobsubmitter transformer to submit jobs to the FME Server itself using a web connection (with address http://localhost, admin-account and password). We have the job scheduled in the "Schedules"-tab in FME-server.When the job is automatically triggered by the schedule all calls to the FMEserverjobsubmitter gives the following error: "FMEServerJobSubmitter (ServerJobSubmissionFactory): Could not initialize connection to server "http://__OMITTED__". Unable to use web connection to connect to FME Server. If connecting to FME Server 2013 or older, use direct connection." However, when triggering the exact same job manually (by pressing the "Trigger"-button in "Schedules"-tab) and not changing any input paramet

I'm using FME server to execute a workspace when an email arrives. I have configured a notification and it works fine, my workspace is launched. My workspace fails sometimes when I try to read an attachment in my workspace. The error message indicates that the file can't be read. This problem occurs because FME server downloads the file in a temporary folder that has the same name as the email subject. If this subject contains special characters (such as ?), the workspace can't access to that directory, due to encoding problems. Is there a way to configure the directory in which the attachement are downloaded? I've tried to use the "Download Attachments To" option while creating may Email Notification, but Fme Server stills create subfolder. I've also tried to use Automations, but it doesn't work because I may receive several attachments in the same email, and automation is unable to process multiple attachments. How can I solve my problem?

Hello, Is it possible to configure auto resubmit job after fail on fme server using fme 2019?

Hello, we have problem with FME Server - it is unable to open log file, so every job ends with immediate crash after 1 second. The error message is: Unable to open log file `/opt/fmeserver/resources/logs/engine/current/jobs/job_11.log' The folder „jobs“ exists in this location and is empty. FME Server is able to write there - has sufficient rights. The folder „jobs“ was automatically created when the first job was run - time of creation is the same. So if FME Server created this folder, I suppose it has enough rights to write there. The configuration is this: FME Server 2019.1.3 Build 19642 connected to Active Directory with last security patch installed (*.jar file copied in dedicated folder and restart of the server) OS - Linux 64-bit Debian 9.11 FME Server was upgraded from version 2018.1 on the same machine. Before upgrade it was working ok. After the upgrade every workspace crashes on this logfile error. Where can be the problem? Is there any other solution than install FME Server

Hello all, I'm attempting to create my own Data Distribution Portal via the following Tutorial: https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/1117/data-distribution-with-web-maps.html Now I have a couple of published Parameters (SDE Connection, Writer Output). As the tutorial stands these need to be defined every single time, which is a bit of a pain as they stay similar to the defaults 80% of the time. Is there a way of delivering the defaults to the WebMap with my newby JavaScript skills? Thanks in advance.

We have a set of jobs that feed a enterprise system that are pushing into a Enterprise GDB. We just found in debugging that a fatal error: An error occurred while attempting to retrieve the connection parameters from the connection file 'C:\\Users\\ahdor140\\Downloads\\GCSS_PROC - GIS.sde'A fatal error has occurred. Check the logfile above for details Our issue is that with this fatal error; the job is reported as:statusSUCCESS This doesn't seem right to me.

I have a long running workbench on the FME server. Is it possible to take actions if a job submitted is canceled? proposed workflow 1. submit a job 2. cancel a job 3. write into a file information regarding the job that was cancelled (is possible to do it inside the same workbech? is possible to do it with another workbench? a subscription could help??) [EDIT]:The idea is that step 3 is automatically triggered after the cancellation of the job, that is what I mean by "React". [EDIT]: I am using FME Server 2018.1.2 - Build 18590 - win64: I notice that JOBSUBMITTER_ASYNC_JOB_FAILURE topic is not triggered when a job is canceled. thanks for any hint provided.

Existing FME Desktop and FME Server version 2015.1 will support Windows Server 2019??

In FME Server 2019, I would like to run a workspace with the data download service that generates an email containing both the {downloadURL} and a message coming from an attribute. If I use the Email body template on the subscription,<fmeblock type="optional">Click here to download the result: {downloadUrl}</fmeblock>, then I can get url, but not the attribute data. If I use the EMailGenerator/FMEServerNotifier then I can get the attribute data, but not the url. Thoughts on how to get both? Note that using {downloadURL} in the subscriber_content for the FMEServerNotifier, doesn't work, as it's not resolved.

Hi, I'm trying to set up a workflow where I attach the intermediate result of a workspace to an Email as an Excel spreadsheet but I have troubles writing only one file. The Emailer documentation hints at using TempPathNameCreator and a FeatureWriter but I could not find any concrete examples on FME hub. When I run the translation every feature is written to a separate Excel file instead of a single one. I'm sure this can easily be done but I can't figure out how. Thanks for any help!

Hi everybody,I'm trying to call a datadownload service from a workbench with an HTTPCaller. All works perfectly: the call start the job on fme server and at the end I've the json response with the link and other parameters. In my parameters from the HTTPCaller I've set the opt_requesteremail but no email are sent with the download link to the requester.Anyone have tested it? I use fme 2018.1.0.3 I thought a workaround, but I like to use this parameter that made what I need... Thanks for the support.
