FME Flow

Hi all, For a SOAP interaction I need to reply in my FME server datastreaming a 202 header. An external company is sending me data via a datastreaming services, but they waiting for a 202 reply. In the workspace I save the data and process it, but I need to reply with a 202 for the external company to know I received the documents. The external company sends a post request to our FMEREST. The reponse page can be blank. My question is, how can I send out a 202 header with server (streaming)services?

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_ShutdownService 2017-08-16 10:27:08| 142.5| 0.0|INFORM|FME Engine is shutting down

I'm doing a custom HTML email with FMEServerEmailGenerator transformer and I'm trying to include an image as an attachment but it is not rendered in the email. How can I fix this? And the html code: <a href="#" target="blank"> <img style="display: block; outline: none; border: none;" src="img-logo.png" width="110" height="73" alt="Logo Compass" title="Logo Compass" /></a>

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

We applying FME Server trial licenses for our customer in China. And for the strict network management, we should only use offline mode. And we send the json file to codes@safe.com.Then it will auto return a license file, but this license file can not be actived. We have feed back this problem to safe many times ,but it still exist. This problem will influence our promotion of FME and it will take a long time to get every trial license. Can someone help us to answer and solve the problem?

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?

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.html But 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?

I have a JMS Sender which communicates through SSL with AMQ. On the AMQ log, I get the following error: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: Received fatal alert: certificate_unknown Any help is appreciated.

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,

Hey everyone, I'm looking to add an attribute that will list the username of the last person who ran a specific tool. Can this be done in text editor? I have added a date via @Timestamp, but I cannot figure out how to show who the last person was that ran the tool. Any suggestions? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hi All I've built a workbench that generates an Excel file. What the end goal is to have this work bench accessible through a web page and allow the user to download the result as a .xlsx (not a zipped .xlsx). I've tried two ways to get this working: DataDownload This works however the .xlsx is returned in a .zip DataStreamer This method works when running the workbench from FME Server (a download window appears) but when using the JS API you simple get the .xlsx return as a string (like if you tried to open a .xlsx file with notepad). Myself and a colleague have tried a number of ways to get this working by playing with the parameters (specifically opt_response format). I've included the JS in its current state below... <script type="text/javascript"> var repository, workspace window.onload = function() { FMEServer.init({ server : "https://*******************", token : "********************************" }); repository = '***************' workspace = "EXCEL_Download.fmw" } function get

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?

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?

Hi folks, We are using FME Server 2017. I have setup a topic to receive Email, which tested successfully with notification. I also created a publication using above topic with protocol (Email SMTP). However, when I try to send email to this publication from outlook I received delivery fail message. IT has confirmed the port 25 is open. Delivery hasfailed to these recipients or distribution lists: A problem occurred during the delivery of this message. Microsoft Exchange willnot try to redeliver this message for you.

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?

When starting the FME Server core service, I get the following 1068 error: "Windows could not start Error 1068: The dependency or group failed to start" I've set all of the FME services to run as a service account, and when I swap it back to local system it's fine.

Hi, It would be useful to be able to change the color scheme of FME Server web interface, to quickly distinguish between DEV and PROD server. Thanks

Hi, me and @thomas_merkus have this simple question on configuring FME Server to receive e-mails. If we wanted to configure FME Server to receive mail, we end up with a notification content that possibly contains a reference to an e-mail attachment, which is stored somewhere on the local system. But if that attachment contains a virus, how secure is that? As a human it is possible that I recognize the danger and thus I do not open the attachment. But for a machine as FME Server is, that could be not as simple as that, so the question is: how can we ensure that FME Server is not storing malicious software on the local disk?

Hi! I am using FME Desktop 2016.1 to publish workspaces to FME Server. I found that after I change the log settings in Tools menu-->Translation (for example, change to only log errors) and republish the workspace to FME Server, the log obtained by running it from FME Server will be different. It seems a little bit odd to me, and I wasn't able to find help file about this after trying, so I just want to make sure I understand correctly the way it works: will the FME Desktop publish its desktop settings to FME server? or it is my misunderstanding? Thank you!

Hello, we used to deploy FME in silent mode using a so called NOVELL Zenworks Bundle. This worked fine up to version 2015. Since version 2016 we are having the following problems: 1.) Novell Zenworks is not able to install the msi-file any more. It shows an undefined error. 2.) Installing FME using msiexec on the client computer is possible in silent mode, but when you start FME the EULA-window and the FME Desktop Licensing Assistant window pop up, what we'd like to avoid because our students should no be forced to make any input in these windows. We use the parameters: qn INSTALLLEVEL 3 ENABLE_POST_INSTALL_TASKS no Does anyone else have the same problem? Roland

I want to install the latest FME version, but (I assume to store temporary installation files) it tries to get acces to a location I do not have access to. I added FME_TEMP, but (for this purpose) does not make sense. Also modified TEMP and TMP environment variables to a directory I definitely have access to, but that also didn't help. Which environment variable is used to specify the temporary directory to store the installation files?

I have recently switched from a floating license to a fixed license and the licensing assistant is still picking up my old floating license. What can I do to resolve this?

I have several hundred jobs that I'm processing on FMECloud. The FMEJobSubmitter is set to 'Wait for job to complete: No" so I can take full advantage of 10 engines and the queue. After the JobSubmitter I have a FeatureHolder, then a Sorter (Descending by _Job_id), then a Sampler (First 1 Features) to get the last job "_job_id". When the last jobs arrive from the queue and run on the 10 engines the dataset for the last job is smaller and therefore finishes before the others, therefore the FMEServerJobWaiter sees the last job is Complete the workbench continues, although all the jobs are not really complete. If one could set the Priority in the FMEServerJobSubmitter via an attribute one could set the priority of the last job to be lower (ie. 101) than the others (ie. 100) forcing it to really be last.
