How to generate Token in FME Server 2016

Hi there,I can generate Token from FME Server2017 using C#, tested with postman, see attached image, but when I try to use same method from FME Server2016, it gives me error: Both user ID and password need to be specified for viewing/generating token. So what's the correct way to generate Token in FME Server2016.1 using postman or C#. Thank you very much.

What are some of the difficulties that you experience with FME Server SSL Configuration?

HTTPS is becoming a very common configuration tweak after FME Server is installed.Not long ago an idea was posted: Streamline FME Server SSL ConfigurationI'm curious to learn what FME Server admins have experienced when they are configuring FME Server for HTTPS (SSL). This is an attempt to better understand how the instructions, or tools could be improved to make this a better experience. Please visit the idea above and make suggestions or pass along your comments on issues and pains here. For reference here is a link to the HTTPS Configuration Documentation

Run a workbench with Directory Watch

Hello!I'm new with FME Server (very happy user!) and I was wondering if the Directory Watch can do what I want to do.I want to run a FME workbench each time a file is added to my directory. I want to watch the directory each hour. Can I do that?Second thing, I want to do the opposite. I want to abort a scheduled FME workbench when I detect a particular file into a directory. Can I do that?Thanks a lot.

Workspace and the task scheduler

I’m attempting to get a workspace containing SQL Server connections to run as a windows scheduled task. It starts up but but errors out like so:Thus far I have: made my database connections public, built a batch file, given the task ‘highest privileges’, set the Start In parameter to the location of the batch and tried my own user account as well as the network admin.The workspace runs just fine from within FME or from the batch. The error only appears when launched from the scheduler.I realise there are several articles about scheduling tasks in the Knowledge Base and I think I've been through all of them but obviously I’m still missing something. Thanks

FME 2017.1 Engine(s) shuts down/stops unexpectedly

I submitted a critical ticket for this, but I was wondering if anyone else has experienced engines shutting down and not coming back up for a long time or without manual intervention to reboot the service or FME engine service. We saw the error below 1 time yesterday on our test box engine, and I noticed it on 4 of our 6 production engines this morning after we upgraded.I'm seeing the following error in our engine logs:2017-08-16 10:27:08| 142.5| 0.0|INFORM|Handling FME Engine admin request: FME_ShutdownService2017-08-16 10:27:08| 142.5| 0.0|INFORM|FME Engine is shutting down

Creating a 'pass/fail' sequence for multiple workspaces/groups of transformers

Hello,I've created a number of workspaces with various transformers in, and I'm trying to figure out a way to run all workspaces in one go in a sequence. Essentially, once one workspace has run through it's transformers, created the desired output and returned a 'Translation was SUCCESSFUL' result, I'd then like this to kick-start the following workspace.Is this possible? I did consider the alternative, which was to bring all the various workspaces together into a single workspace, but due to the incredibly high volume of 'FeatureMergers' this would impact the performance too much if they all ran concurrently. Unless there is a way to trigger a group of transformers once another group has successfully processed?Any guidance will be (as ever) greatly appreciated.Many thanks

Trial license lost in FME Desktop on Linux

Hi,I installed FME Desktop 2017.1.1.1 under Linux and have obtained trial license code. It worked within that session. However, after I restarted the computer, FME asked for a license again. On Windows, there is no such issue.Is this something expected? Any workaround?

How to make sure emailer works AFTER translation?

I have a workbench which produces a zipped file, and I want to use the Emailer to send this ZIP in a mail. I've tried the solution of @aaronkoning in this thread:https://knowledge.safe.com/questions/4963/sending-mail-in-fme-desktop.htmlBut for some reason the Emailer tries to send when the zip is not created yet. Obviously I want the Emailer to wait until the zip is created. How can I achieve that?

Custom webapps location

Hi,We have some apps based on examples from FME Playground. I wonder how to deploy them and transfer except that manually? I used to put them directly into FME Server's tomcat webapps folder. But there is no way to include them into Project and thus, backup them.Maybe it would be possible to add ability to easily add URL redirection to a folder inside repository on FME server. That way including Repository folder inside a project will include web app as well.Thanks,

Linux Server jobs restarts randomly (No message length returned in FME Engine reponse)

We have data intense rasterization workspace (which we can share via dropbox) using Mapnik. The workspace is run with Red hat 7 / FME 2017.1.1.1. The server has sufficient memory and cpu capabilities and it is working fine with smaller data sets. The desktop is also FME 2017.1.1.1 version and the fmeserver user has sufficient rights (root + https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/718/fme-server-troubleshooting-guide-testing-permissio.html ).Checked the logs and it reports "No message length returned in FME Engine reponse" and restarts. Can anyone help?

Corporate SSL Interception

I have a problem in FME Desktop 2017.1. My company uses a custom certificate authority to monitor TLS traffic. In Desktop 2016, I was able to modify the cacert keystore in $FME_HOME\\jre\\lib\\security\\cacerts and add our root cert. After that FME viewed our custom CA as trusted. In 2017.1, that does not seem to be the case. I went through the same procedure and added the cert to that keystore - but 2017.1 no longer appears to respect that keystore (or the windows system root certificates, where it is also installed and fully trusted). Did something change in 2017.1? Am I missing anything obvious?

Set Default Location for FME Server Download Repository Item

When I download an FME script from FME Server, the Save local copy dialog defaults to the My Documents\\My FME Server Workspaces folder. I would rather have it default to a certain folder in my workstation. I don't see any setting in the options of FME Desktop 2016 that would allow me to do that. Is it possible?
