FME Server 2013 Web form question

Why is the "Show Developer information" code/form so different (and worse) than the form on the configure page. The configure page has check boxes for layers and a drop down menu for formats, but the show developer code has none of that. Can we get the code for configure form (which does't show up in view source).

size of raster file

Hi again, while I am trying with the help of support solve one problem, comes new one :) Ok, maybe it is not a problem, but I need explanation. If I have, for instance, 10 geotiff files, each has 1 Mb of size, how could be possible that one jpeg2000 mosaick file of those 10 files is ten times bigger i.e. 100Mb even If I used compression 20% . What kind of new informations appeared ? Thank you.

Convert SVG path format to SDO_GEOMETRY

Hi,  I am trying to read a AutoCADMap 3D .layer file which contains the following details,  <Path> <Geom>M -130.0,130.0 L 130.0,130.0 L 130.0,-130.0 L -130.0,-130.0 L -130.0,130.0 M -130.0,0.0 L 130.0,0.0 M 82.425,0.0 A 82.425,82.425 0.0 1 0 -82.425,0.0 A 82.425,82.425 0.0 1 0 82.425,0.0</Geom> </Path>  The Geom element has data in SVG format. I need to convert this format into Oracle SDO_GEOMETRY and store the data in Oracle spatial table.  I don't find any off-the-shelf reader/transformer. How do I perform the transformation in FME?  Regards, Ananda

Calculating Map Scale and Scale Bar for PDF file

Connect FME to Sybase

I have a Sybase database (i am noob with this DBMS) and would like to connect FME on it. The database is a .db file. I tried some connection types in FME like SQL and ODBC, but nothing is working. Do you know what kind of reader I would need to connect FME on my Sybase? I have an ESRI Edition.  BTW great world tour (Montréal) about FME2013 !!  My Zipster is protecting me now :)

Error logging on FME Desktop

Hi, I have a problem workspace that runs fine for most datasets but for one dataset it just stops, with no error indicated in the output log.  I've tried turning on the "Log debugging information" option in Workbench. I've also tried adding "FME_DEBUG BADNEWS FME_STACK_TRACE" to the workspace header but I'm still not getting any error output at the point the translation hangs, it just stops.  I've let the translation sit overnight, so it's not just a matter of me being impatient!  I assume it's some bad geometry but it's hard to know where to start looking, there's a fiar amount of data and the translation runs for 1/2 hour before dying.  Originally the translation looked like it was dying on a FeatureMerger so I exported the inputs to that transformer and then ran them through in a seperate translation but they ran through fine. I replaced the FeatureMerger with a Matcher in my original workspace and now it looks like it's failin

BulkAttributeRenamer and ESRI ArcSDE Reader = CRASH

I've encountered a combination that seems to make FME engine crash when running the very simple translation.  My source is a SDE standalone table called T_GUY.  I created a simple translation to isolate the crashing problem i found in a more complicated translation.  I added an GEODATABASE_SDE reader and SDE30 reader that connects to the same T_GUY table and simply write the output to an Excel writer.  The translation runs just fine in this configureation.  Then I add a BulkAttributeRenamer between the SDE30 reader and Excel Writer, run the translation, and I get an APPCRASH of fme.exe when its "retrieving features from table T_GUY".  The BulkAttributeRenamer is configured to rename all attributes to UPPERCASE.  Adding the BulkAttributeRenamer with the same UPPERCASE functionality between the GEODATABASE_SDE reader and Excel writer does NOT cause fme.exe to crash.  Has anyone encountered this before?  Why would this happen with SDE30 reader?  I would prefer to use the SDE

cannot produce mixed case shapefiles

I am trying to create a set of shapefiles with mixed case attributes but, even with what I think are the appropriate settings, I am getting upper case attribute names. I am using a writer with dynamic schema to write the set of shapefiles with the "Use Upper Case Attribute Names" unchecked. I read in the help for writers that this setting will not be used unless you create a new workspace and add the writer to that. I did this but to no avail, I still get upper case attribute names. The input features all have miced case attribute names. What should I do? I am using FME 2012 SP4 Win32.  BTW, how do I add the workspace and log to this question? Perhaps having those would show the problem?  Chris Mugdan

Custom Transformer Parameter not being set

I am using FME 2011 and having a problem passing through a calculated expression to a published parameter in a custom transformer.   Here is what i am doing (which is not working).  in my main workspace i have 2 published parameters that are used to compute a new value (i.e. param1*param2).    I use the parameter fetcher to grab the 2 parameters, and then the expression builder to compute the new attribute.    I then set this to a published parameter in a customer tranformer.  In this custom transformer, this parameter is linked directly to one of the parameters in the Generalizer tranformer.  When i run i get an immediate crash saying that the Generalizer cannot covert a null string.   When i look at in the inspector, i see my new computed value set to @value(newexpressionattribute) when it shoudl have an integer that was computed (i.e. param1*param2).  I am sure it is something simple.  Any help would be appreciated.

Create and Ellipse Based on a Volume (Acres)

Hi FME Community,  I have a problem where I am trying to create an ellipse based on a published parameters "acre" input. It's a fairly straightforward process to do this with a circle/buffer as the radius of a circle can be calculated based on a volume, in this case number of acres.  However, I want to create an ellipse where the radius of one axis is 2x the radius of the other but still sized volume-wise by the input of the published parameter.  Is there a way to create "circlular buffers" and, for lack of a better term, turn them into ellipses by stretching them as they alreay have the correct size by acreage?

Setting Appearances in FME

Hi All, I was wondering if anyone has got any experience with setting Appearances within FME? I am in the process of converting an OS MasterMap Topo Layer ESRI Shape file, that has been converted to 3D (so, it has 3D vertices instead of 2D) to a Wavefront Obj file and want to style the resultant Obj file according to attribution contained within the file (these are the Descriptive Group/Term attributes).   According to the Safe website, you need to create a new null geometry object using the Creator Transformer, you then create a new style using the AppearanceStyler transformer and you then add this style to your geometry using the AppearanceSetter transformer (previously called the AppearanceAdder).  Unfortunately, nothing seems to happen. I get my Obj file, but there are no appearances created.  Does anyone have any ideas why this might be?  cheers  Dave

Log request

I do realize it's possible using the startup script, but it would be nice to have the time/date recorded at the beginning of the log when a translation is started.  If a user wanted to know during a translation when it was began, they would have it in the log.  Maybe it's there, and I'm overlooking it?
