Notification Email

Hey there,  First time using FME Community to help with a Server related problem, but I have been wrestling with this road block for the better part of a couple days.  Within FME's Server Notification service, is there a way to set up a variable to read users as the "email to" portion of the subscription? What I am looking for is something similar to $(FME_SECURITY_USER), but within the notification outlet. I am working on a project that goes through chained FME jobs and returns a location to a file for colleagues within the office to receive (as in they will go on and activate the job themselves) via email. I have a shutdown python script on the last job at the end of the process that works fine, but I wanted to make the fail message apart of a notification service. Having a hardwired email address would be pointless for this idea.  Tl;Dr- Is there a way to integrate a universal "email to" parameter within the Notification service?  Thanks for the time.

Data download service with multiple readers

What is the best way to read multiple feature types, from multiple different data sources for data download service? I expect there will be 75+ feature types, mostly coming from one or two different SDE databases, but there will also be file-based (likely file geodatabases and/or shapefiles) coming from different sources via http/ftp.  All the examples I've seen for data download have the feature types coming from one reader and use the Feature Types to Read parameter to give the user the ability to choose which feature types to download.  Based on what I've found I'm thinking I need to use a FeatureReader(s) but I couldn't find examples on how to implement it for multiple data sources. I hope that's clear and I apologize if the answer is already out there, I just couldn't find it.  Thanks, Michael

FME Server Error codes

Hi,  Does anyone know where i can get a list of fme error codes and reasons for them being raised?  I'm seeing quite a few "231047:Job cancelled." responses, with no obvious reason why, and they don't appear to be user cancelled either.  the job duration of these cancalled jobs appears to be from a few minutes to a few days, but they don't appear to be tying up the engine.  also, if I look in the fmeserver.log the process often looks like it has run and finished in 4 seconds or so, but the record in the db jobs table suggests it ran for a lot longer.  can and do jobs requests get orphaned or something?  Any ideas anyone?  Nick

FME Server doesn't handle all workspaces!

I have several workspaces that work fine on the desktop version but doesn't work on FME Server mainly due to memory issues. (The Server version is installed on a virtual server with 10GB of RAM and my laptop has 8GB).  This is a huge dissapointment since we have invested in this software to automate our processes and now it seems FME Server is not able to handle the same workspaces that the desktop version does. Has anyone else had the same kind of problems?  Additionally I have run intio character set issues with FME Server that I didn't have on FME desktop.

URL in email

Hi All,  I am just starting to use FME server and immediately want to make use of some fancy options :)I have already been reading up the documentation and this article explains the method clearly. I basically need FME server to receive a mail with a url to a download service, download the data and trigger a database update. The example json contains :"email_publisher_content{0}": "MyBody\\r\\n", I guess this is where the url will be present (?) does anybody have some tips/experience to share about this?  Any help is appreciated, Cheers, Itay.

Uploading Resources

When uploading a workspace to FMEServer and adding Resources I want to be able to NOT upload these when uploading another workspace to the same Repository. Ie I have some large LIDAR-files which several workspaces use. However I do not want to upload them once for each workspace. Is this possible?

FME 2013 official release

Hello  FME 2013 was released Jan 15 with Build 13261  Now I find Build 13264 in the download area and FME Pedia  has the info that FME 2013 is Build 13264. see: http://fmepedia.safe.com/articles/FAQ/Build-Numbers-for-FME-Versions  I couldn't find any info about the difference between 13261 and 13264 ?!  We want to build on top of official FME 2013. This confusion is unexpected and not really helpful.  Michael

Check which floating license

Hi,  Is it possible to figure out programatically what license FME is using?  i.e. if I have multiple versions of FME on a machine to check using Python if 'c:\\fme2013\\fme.exe' is using a professional or oracle license.  Cheers  -James

Upgrade to FME 2013 Question

Hi There,  I was just wondering can FME Server 2012 run an FME 2013 Desktop Workspace? We have a number of workspaces that we will be upgrading and we are unclear if they will still run with FME Server 2012.  We currently do not have the time to upgrade our server.  Thanks!

We have some queries presented to our Oracle database coming from the Fme Server - They run approx 40000 time an hour and cannot figure out how are they being run- the query are in this format:  Select owner, table_name from all_tables where ownner in 'PUBLIC, XXXXX' AND TABLE_NAME = 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'. We found that there are 3-4 queries of this nature.  The question is how to find them and then stop as it is not producing any output.  Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Can FME Desktop install on windowsVM which sits on Linux box

Dear All,  Need your assistance.....  We run our FME Desktop 2012 64-bit PC using Safe Floating Licence. Due to the amount the data which we process on daily basis, it takes days to complete and the FME process used up all CUPs.  Going forward we are building Application Server (not FME Server) to run FME and other geo-spatial applications.  But the problem is: -           App Server will be built on Linux RedHat 64-Bit and as per my research FME Workbench is not available on Linux. http://www.safe.com/fme/fme-technology/fme-desktop/tech-specs/  So, we were thinking, we will configure windows VM on Linux and install all the FME components but not 100% sure this will work or not.  Could someone please share some knowledge or advise that would it be good to run FME on windowsVM which sits on Linux box.  Thanks in advance for your help. Regards Suvo

Dynamic file names for Data Download service

I have a workspace using a "Swiss Interlis" writer that produces an XML file. The writer takes the full path of the file from a parameter. I have linked this destination parameter to a Python scripted parameter that generates the file names dynamically depending on user input.  That workspace works fine in FME Desktop and as a Job Submitter service on FME Server. If I publish the workspace as Data Download service it fails with the error message: "The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect" and also returning the source code of the Python parameter. It looks like the Python source code is used as a file path rather than running the script and using its result.  I changed the script to only return a filename instead of the full path, but I still get the same error message. If I enter a hardcoded file name into the writer destination parameter (instead of the Python script) everything works fine and the file name is used in the downloadable zip

Directory name generalization

Hi everyone,  I am pretty new with FME and I am using it to manipulate data that is delivered to my company on a quarterly basis. Because of this, there is a 'date stamp' on the folder name (for example "Current/Transport/Roads NOVEMBER 2012/Standard/") where NOVEMBER can have four different month names, depending on release date.  What I am trying to do is to 'generalise' the directory path in the readers with some wildcards if that's possible? I'd like to create a directory path that finds the files, no matter what's the date as long as the data is stored inside the 'Current' folder, for example 'Current/Transport/Roads */Standard/'  Hope I am being clear in this? Any help/suggestion would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you Gianluca

FME Server - Database Repository

Hi,  We are about to implement FME Server for our Organization...As the business owner for the application (we will likely also be the administrators), our preference would be to use the FME Repository database delivered with FME Server. Unfortunately our IT group has a policy for using Oracle for all applications. I am trying to defend our position of going with the default database. Does anyone have experience with and or recommendations about which FME Server repository to go with  between Oracle and the built in db?  Does anyone know why FME Server supports external database repositories...it seem to just complicate the installation and I can't see any upside?  The reference Manual simply states the following and there is not much more detail in the Admin Guide   "The FME Server Core uses the repository database to store job and repository information. The database should never be edited directly, although querying the database for job history and other statistical informa

FME Server 2013 Data Streaming log files

We are running FME Server 2013 Data Streaming which is driven from a MapGuide site and outputs PDF files. This is quite a complex workspace which generates logs up to about 2MB per request. I would like to be able to turn down the degree of logging to just ERROR if possible. Some of the other services seem to have the option in the .properties file to set the DEBUG_LEVEL = SEVERE. This does not appear to be an option in the Data Streaming config file. I tried adding it anyway with no success.  Anyone have any thoughts? Am I missing something basic here?  Thanks, J
