FME Flow

Hi, I am new to FME Server and I am having a problem. When I run a single workflow it is looking for a file directory that exisits and works, however when I run the same workflow within an automation it is looking for a different file location and so is completing but not reading the file and populating with the writer. Examples of the different location types are:single run on server: C:\\ProgramData\\Safe Software\\FME Server\\resources\\data\\run through automation:Server\\resources\\data\\ it seems to be looking for the file address in two parts where the space in FME Server is? thanks,Andrew 

Each time I try to run the automation and it fails for an reasons it wraps the location in another set of quotes which in turn causes the automation to fail for having an invalid argument. HELP!

Maybe this is known behavior, but I noticed that when using the following dataset name in an Excel Feature writer in FME Server, that the expression was not evaluated correctly when using the Data Download or Data Streaming services. "testfilename_@DateTimeFormat(@DateTimeNow(),%Y%m%d).xlsx" Interestingly, it works fine in Desktop, and when using the Job Submitter service in Server. Has anyone else encountered this type of issue?

Hi all, I have an issue in getting the certificate to work for HTTPS URL of FME Server. I have used this URL as reference: https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Server_Documentation/AdminGuide/configuring_for_https.htm I did use these steps to create Keystore:• Open a command prompt as administrator and navigate to the Java bin directory (C:\\Program Files\\FMEServer\\Utilities\\jre\\bin )• Run the following command to create a new keystore file:keytool -genkey -alias tomcat -keyalg RSA -keystore tomcat.keystore• After running the previous command, you are prompted to set a password for the new keystore and specify the server domain name (for example, myserver.mydomain (My FME Server) as your first and last name.• Password: mypass• When prompted for the password for the alias <tomcat>, press RETURN.• A new keystore is created in C:\\Program Files\\FMEServer\\Utilities\\jre\\bin\\• Copy the new keystore file to the tomcat directory in the FME Server installation: C:\\Program Files\\F

Hello, I have a lot of engines and few queues. I have one queue called Test which is assigned only to one engine. All queues have priority 5.  Then I have a schedule configured to use queue: Test But when I trigger job for that schedule what I can see is that both Tag and Queue is set to Default and job ends up on random engine.  What am I doing wrong? Schedule configuration  engine/job configuration: Submited job execution details:

I have a workflow that consists of several different municipalities of input parcel data that will all be delivered at different times. The steps of the workflow are as follows: Load raw data into a GDBETL the data into target schema and load into municipality-specific GDBRun a validation on the dataLoad individual municipalities into an aggregated single feature class in a single gdb. I ultimately have to deploy these workspaces to FME server and have the entire workflow run for JUST a single municipality upon data delivery for that municipality. I have it set up so that the ETL and validations for each municipality are separated out into municipality specific workspaces.  What I am wondering is if it is possible to build all of the different municipalities into a single initial data load ETL, and a single aggregation ETL and still ONLY have the whole process for the municipality that was delivered run (and not all of the other ones that don't have a new data delivery)? The alter

Is there a way to move workspaces from one repository to the other, other than re-publishing them through FME Workbench? I have a customer who has uploaded all workspaces to a single repository and is now looking to set that up in a better way (FME Server 2019)

I'd like to send an email upon completion of a workspace in an Automation. The email needs to contain a link to the log file URL.In the traditional Notification/Subscription workflow I could achieve this by using the {logUrl} email template key in the Subscription.In Automations, this key no longer exists and I only have access to the {job.log} key, which expands out to the file path and not the URL. I don't see any URL in the topic JSON if I monitor a topic sent as output from the completion of the workspace. Is the URL available at all?

An errant process has dumped thousands of file into an FTP site with an FTP watcher on it. I now have thousands of jobs backed up in the queue with necessary jobs mixed in. I need to clear just the bad jobs from the queue and I need to do so without clicking through hundreds of pages and checking boxes. Please help.

I have a workspace where I am checking to see if features exist and if not I create them. In the workspace I read one table from a database and then join it to another table in the same database (join conditions to inspections). Currently I change the name of the Database manually in the reader and rerun the entire workspace. All my database files are in the same folder but have different names. I would like to be able to run a batch process that would process each database one at a time and then move to the next. Any help is much appreciated.

I need to convert a shape file to dwg file where each layer in the shape file has to have line style or symbol according to a library in the dwg.

We are in the process of migrating from FME Server 2017 to FME Server 2020, workspaces have been saved as 2020 and loaded to the new FME server 2020. A number of jobs are failing but also failing to complete in the job history! However in the FME Server Log there is this note “Please see: http://fme.ly/e100005#could-not-read-engine-response “Following the link the causes are listed as “These errors occur when the job that was running on FME Server crashes the FME Engine. FME Engine crashes have varying causes and by their nature are usually unknown to Safe Software. Here are some causes we have seen in the past:python errors/crashesoracle client configuration errorslarge datasets with memory intensive operationsservice account permissionsport scanners related to security interrogationsI can't see how any of these apply to the workspaces that have failed to complete. Does anyone have any suggestion on how I can fix this issue?

I have an automation workflow (FME Server 2019) built from a number of workspaces that process an input file. The automation is triggered by a file landing in a directory (directory watch), and the data passes through the workspaces and gets loaded to the database at the end (if follows the happy path), else someone gets notified for a fail, etc. This works great for 1 file end-to-end, but when multiple files land in the directory, the first file runs through workspace A, then second file runs through workspace A,.. rather than first file runs through workspace A, then workspace B,.. completing all before second file runs. Is there a way to include this dependency? I've tried adding a merge action, but this doesn't accept it as everything is in sequence there are no parallel streams, and I'm asking it to run/continue regardless of pass or fail of workspace action.Is this possible within latest version?The reason I need one file to be processed end-to-end is because some of

Hi,I have tried to use the GUI setup for proxy, to be honest, i could not got it to work in 2019.1, 2019.2, 2020.0 and now 2020.1 I always just revert back to the trusty command line setup. very easy to do, as i have a powershell script to deploy it . and also adding it the LAN settingsThe GUI setup also don't have settings like bypass local address current error i get:67   2020-9-13 08:56:34 | HTTPCaller (HTTPFactory): HTTP/FTP transfer error: 'Couldn't connect to server'68   2020-9-13 08:56:34 | HTTPCaller (HTTPFactory): Please ensure that your network connection is properly set up69   2020-9-13 08:56:34 | HTTPCaller (HTTPFactory): Please ensure the following proxy information is correct.

Hi all, Could anyone let me know what their experience of allowing users to upload photos via FME server app has been?  I am a bit of a newbie but looking to explore if a user can simply upload a picture which is then geotagged and we can then publish that onto a map for users to view.

Hey all Have a server process that is running some parrallel processing and its failing with some really bizarre cryptic errors. The machine has more than enough ram (36gb) and plenty of temp drive space (100gb free). Any one have any thoughts on a way forward? Running on 2019.2.1 build 19823  

I want to get all data in the API, which I do not know what is. For example, i know that there is one package with information at this address:https://objektkatalog.geonorge.no/api/package/EAID_A408BF17_3017_41c7_BC37_D6AADDD6634B But I do not know the EAID for all packages, so I want to get everything from:https://objektkatalog.geonorge.no/api/package/ I'm currently using the httpCaller. Does someone know how to do this? Thanks a lot!

Now this is a very specific topic that I have only had the opportunity to speak with some customers about, but we wanted to get a more general pulse... Did you know that when you access the FME Server REST API documentation pages – e.g. https://myFMEServer.com/fmerest/ – that you are able to paste in your own API token so that you can test with it? As we are underway on the next iteration of the REST API, we wanted to understand how important (i.e. "not at all" to "CRITICAL!") the ability to paste in token values for testing purposes is for you. Of course, you are also able to generate a temporary token for testing (that matches your user account permissions). This is a specific use case for testing with an existing token value that you have modified or set custom permissions for. Please let us know by adding a comment!

the error is "DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN"

Hi all, We are currently going through a process of setting up FME Server. What we would like to do is have a dashboard that monitors all the data we input and see the last time data was updated.  What would be the best process or methods to do this? What are the best practices in ensuring data is up to date and seeing last update of data? Thank You

I'm trying to compute a CHM (canopy height model) by using the rastercellcalc transformer by having it subtract a DEM from a DSM.  The process works fine when only one DEM and DSM are passed through to the transformer at a time however I have these DEM/DSM's clipped to multiple smaller files. The CHM produced should have the same boundaries as the inputted DEM and DSM.  I've tried using the group by parameter in the transformer however it doesn't work for some reason and still tells me that the raster rows and columns don't match. See images below:The attribute manager and trimmer transformers just create a shared attribute between the correct DSM and DEM tiffs tiffs so that the rastercell transformer can do group by "Tile_name). See below:
