FME Flow

Hi,Once I receive the new safe.lic file and activate the new license server, what happen with the old one ? Does it still remain active until I shut it down or will it immediately stop to work ?Thanks

Since a recent upgrade to FME Server 2019.2, I am having trouble inititialising a workspace following receipt of an email. The workspace uses several features from the email that it receives.Ideally, I'd like to just read the email into my workspace as a JSON file that is populated from the Email trigger on the automations page of FME Server. Annoyingly, it seems that I can only populate published parameters with individual attributes of the received email (e.g. Email Subject, Email Body, etc.) rather than bringing the whole email through to a JSON FeatureReader. You can see below that I can't populate the "Email" Parameter with the whole Email, I have to select one of the attributes of the email:Is there a way to populate a JSON FeatureReader with the entirety of the email that FME Server receives, including attachments and metadata?

We've got a real head scratcher here. We are collecting data in Survey123 for ArcGIS and are using FME to listen for the submissions. Everything works perfectly for receiving the JSON. We've taken that JSON and built a workspace around looking at the data as it is pulled from ArcGIS Online without any issue. We even deal with repeats associated with Survey123. Here's the part we can't seem to get past. We have set up all of the attachment parameters and the job clearly pulls the attachments and it saves them in our specified directory. We even have it saving under FME Server in the resources-data directory. So there is no issue with the attachments being pulled. Our issue is we cannot get them to properly attach to the email being sent.  When we remove the attachment parameters from the FMEServerEmailGenerator (Leaving attachments blank) the email comes through perfectly. It contains all of the HTML formatting we set up. But the second we referen

Can someone help me resolve the following error when I try installing FME Desktop:An error occurred while attempting to create the directory: C\\...\\Document\\FME 

License server runs on a Windows machine. We have 20 floating licenses. When a user tries to borrow a license from within Workbench we get the following message (both on pc and Mac)

Just out of interest: How does FME detect, that a directory has changed? Does it store the information about the files in the directory at a given time in a file? So that when the directory watch is triggered it can compare the new informations of the files in the directory at that time to that file?Or how else does it keep track?Thanks, Vera

Hello, I've updated FME server V2018 to V2019.2.3Unfortunately nou the scheduling does not run. There are no scheduled tasks in the que.If I manually start a job at the server it appears in the que but does not run at all.Wich services are responsble for the schedular. Do they have to run with SYSTEM?Or do all the services have to run with SYSTEM? thanks for your reply 

Hello,Trying to combine log files that are created from workspaces that are being executed via an automation/schedules in 2019.2.Any thoughts please? Thanks!

Hi All,We're looking at setting up a PostGIS database on a PostGIS database sitting on an AWS Serverless RDS and are unclear whether our desktop FME will be able to successfully interact with it.Our main concern is with some of our existing FME workspaces that we would want to read from the PostGIS database, process for 2-3 days then write the output back to the database. During this processing we'd expect the AWS Serverless RDS to switch itself off as all the processing is happening on my desktop, but will FME "wake-up" the Serverless RDS when it's time to write to the database? Cheers Rich   

Was previously running Windows 10 Pro build version 1809, until yesterday when Windows decided to update me from build version 1809 to build version 1903. This update seemingly has deleted FME Desktop application, though the other FME application such as Data Inspector and Quick Translator are still present.I launched FME Licensing Assistant 2018.1 and tried to enter in my Home Use License serial number into the Single-Fixed-License field. But it returned this error.""Invalid trial activation codeThis trial activation code has already been used to generate a license. If you wish to obtain a new trial activation code, please visit www.safe.com/trial."" The license is valid for another two months. So my license isn't expired either. I also tried pointing the FME Licensing Assistant 2018.1 to C:\\ProgramData\\Safe Software\\FME\\Licenses since the license file still

Hello, I have fme server and and engines on two different machines in a distributed environment. I am trying to query the underlying postgres database directly through toad datapoint. It seems I need to connect to port 7082. I have not figured out the server name and location however. DataPoint is on my local box not on fme server.

Hi all,  I have noticed every few hours the token on my topics webhook keeps changing, which causes the webhook to no longer fire. I have tried to set the token to one i have generated in the account that lasts for several years, but this still does not work. Any ideas on how to resolve this?

Hello, While configuring a license from the command line, I found this article.Only, I couldn't get it to work.The problem is, that you have to use fmelicensingassistant_cmd.exe in all cases. (Not just fmelicensingassistant)Could you please update your documentation accordingly?And maybe explain that you can retreive the license type bij running the --query command line. Kind regards,Fabian HofmanAxians

I am really new to FME. I need to move spatial data (both topology and attributes) from Smallworld to Azure postgre.postgis. Additionally, I also need to take care of the "delta" data moves (incremental updates). Pls let me know your inputs. 1. Is an intermediate XML unavoidable? 2. Is it a plain lift & shift or should I be concerned with Data Modelling?

Hi,I have a client who has no troubles installing FME 2018.1.2.0 (build 18590) in A Citrix environment. He tries to upgrade to 2019.0 (build 19238) and get a error message:I have not had the time to troubleshoot too much, anyone seen similar and knows what might cause this problem?

@DeWetAtSafe: I found your archlinux package of fme desktop 2017 at https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/fme-desktop-2017/I tried to re-pack fme desktop 2018 using the files for 2017 as a template, albeit unsuccessful.Would it be possible that you create a package for the fme desktop 2018, too? That would be most helpful!

Some really weird has happend to my Win-10 enterprise PC: Starting FME workbench 2018.1.1.2 fails with the "LibraryLoad failed with error 87" error message. Has anyone else had to deal with it? By googling it seems to be a generic windows issue. I can't find any FME - specific discussions about this error.My theory is that some windows upgrade has broken my FME installation.Happy for any help. If I find a solution I'll post a followup.

We have FME 2018.1 when you choose “Use system proxy settings” it uses the system proxy ok, but it ignores any exceptions you may have set in Internet Options e.g. for local addresses that don’t use the proxy. The work around I have at the minute is to add each individual server on our local domain to the Custom Proxy Map in FME Preferences as having No Proxy however I can’t use a wildcard to do this the same way it is in the Internet Options exceptions list e.g. server1.domain.com rather than *.domain.com. Is this by design? Exception list in Internet Options Proxy Window and use System Settings in FME
