FME Form

Error message with filename wb-xlate-...

I know this question has been asked but in the comments it was said that this was solved in 2017 but just in the last half year it happened to me twice. Both times I was using FME Desktop 2021.2.1, I was copying a part of a pipeline to a blank workspace and copying the user parameters as well. Then I solved by recreating manually the workspace and addig each and every transformer one by one. This time not even that helps, there's always a value it's complaining about or it's messing up fetching the values from user parameters, even after you recreate them.  I even tried to create a new workspace that had NO relation to the rest and when I created a user param with value XY and printed it in a pythoncaller it printed XY DEFAULT MACRO FME_FACTORY. Now this messed up my whole workspace and am about to lose a lot of work, how can this be repaired/solved?

I am building a Workspace which takes an integer as one of it's parameters. Depending on the value of the parameter it will query a different ArcSDE layer. I have an AttributeValueMapper to map the number to the layer name e.g.Number : LayerName1 : dbo.layerA2 : dbo.layerBetc After this I have a FeatureReader where the Feature Types to Read value is set to @LayerName as set above. This all works nicely - the data comes out of the Generic port. However, I also want to detect and report on any layers that don't exist. So if dbo.layerA is being set in the AttributeValueMapper but does not exist in ArcSDE, how do I detect this? I thought it would come out of the Rejected port of the FeatureReader, but it doesn't. I do get a WARNing line in the log saying the layer could not be found in the geodatabase, but there is seemingly nothing I can use in the Workspace. I already have a NoFeaturesTester attached to the Generic port to handle a successful query of the layer that retur

FME Desktop 2022.1: What is the equivalent tool of “Euclidean distance” of ArcGIS Pro in FME? I couldn’t figure of if all Raster tools that are available in ArcGIS Pro have equivalent tools\\transformers in FME For example, what is the equivalent tool of “Euclidean distance” of ArcGIS Pro in FME?   

Hi, I have a street network of 3D polygons and the set is not 100% topologically correct. There may be small gaps or overlaps between consecutive road polygons. And normally two consecutive polygons should share the same set of vertices at their junction (materialized by the line separating 2 adjacent polygons).  This would be very easy to solve in 2D using transformers such as the Snapper, AreaOnAreaOverlayer, AreaGapAndOverlapCleaner or TopologyBuilder . But these transformers seem to support 2D only and as a result will not take the z information which is stored in each polygon vertex coordinate. Roads crossing at different z value (bigger than a tolerance of x meters) should not obey to the same rules as those roads which are consecutive.Do you see a possible solution using FME? I was thinking about classifying polygons according to their distinct heights, also cutting polygons with more than 1 z value into 2 parts, and then running the AreaGapAndOverlapCleaner on them with the Gro

Hey Guys,  I'm extracting AutoCAD Parcel information (LotPlan Name) and converting it to MTEXT within the drawing.  The MTEXT needs to be a specific Font. However, the Font required isn't available within the DWGStyler transformer. Can I add a new AutoCAD Font style to FME?

I have a workspace that writes a simple CSV file a little over 10 MB in size using a FeatureWriter. I then use an Emailer to send the file to myself but receive a 'Message size exceeds limit' error. (Error wording is - Emailer: SMTPSenderRefused: Could not complete request. Message: (552, b'5.3.4 Message size exceeds fixed limit', 'myemail@company.com')) Is this limit imposed by the Emailer transformer itself? I can email the file to myself as an attachment manually without issue so I don't think it's our company email server. Wondering how I can overcome this issue. Running FME Desktop 2020.1.2.1 (Build 20624). Thanks, Aaron

Hello, I've got an FME workspace which uses the LineBuilder then aggregates the lines using the Aggregator which grouping the line features into aggregates grouping by an attribute. However, I'm getting the following error message:FileGDB Writer: Failed to write Geometry to feature class 'BUS_ROUTE' with geometry type 'esriGeometryPolyline'. Dropping containing feature.I've tried using GeometryCoercer after the Aggregator but this doesn't work as the GeometryCoercer cannot coerce IFMEAggregate features into lines. Any help would be much appreciated, thank you.

For exemple, I would like to have "This feature A overlaps 5% of the feature B" and "The feature B overlaps 30% of the feature A" (I have one dataset) For now, I used "AreaOnAreaOverLayer" to have overlaps. Then, I calculated the area of the overlaps and the features to know what part of the feature the overlap represents. However, at the end, I have for a feature the percentage that represents the overlap compared to one feature, but I haven't the other feature. I only have " Field 1: Feature A / Field 2: 80%" . That's allI want another field that tell me the name of the other feature. Thank you for helping

Hello!  I am generating a few TIN surfaces which i want to use in Unreal Engine. This means that i will need to generate a UVmap to be able to texture it in engine.  My current setup looks like this: (Ignore my Apperance setting and image rasterizer, i was trying to see if generating a georeferenced texture would work in the appearance setter.). My TIN surface is far away from Origin, so what i am doing is removing the xmin and ymin extracted in the bounds extrator for the offset in the texture coordinate setter. I have tried to do the same thing for the appearance setter aswell.  It seems to generate a UVmap, but the UV is VERY offset in regards to where i need it to be. the scale is correct though.  This is how my UV looks in 3Ds max, its the correct size, but WAY offset.  As you can see below, the size is correct if i manually move the UV down to the 1:1 UV.   Moving this manually for every tinsurface i generate is both nonexact aswell as timewise impossible. Do you have any tips?

Hi all, I've published a workspace to FME Server which updates some rows in Excel. When run on FME Workbench, the rows are correctly updating (using fme_db_operation = UPDATE) at the correct row number, which starts at row 10. I've set the row number by using a counter for xlsx_row_id with a Count Start set to 10. Weirdly, when published to FME Server, the workspace ignores the xlsx_row_id attribute and starts writing at row number 1 (even though it gets the correct column positions). Is this a bug in FME Server? Does anyone have a workaround? I've tried different options in the Start Position parameters of the FeatureWriter (both "Named Range Start Row" and "Start Row") but no success... Any advice gladly received, BI

Hi,I have an ifc file and there are attributes like volume, width, height etc . I can't see them in fme. I even tried to expand the format attributes. Does this mean that reading IFC files is limited to a certain number of attributes? How can I turn on the visibility of these attributes? Is it possible? I've attached a screenshot. The attributes I want to process are in a red box. Regards,Aneta

I have 16 polygons (zone) and a feature of points. I would like to clip points by zone and write to points in each zone in a separate shapefile. that means as a result I have to get 16 shapefile from points. Attached you can see the workbench I tried dynamic and fanout. anyway i only get one feature from punkt.

Dear All , We have a line and we need to add an arrow to it , as shown below we need to add the blue line , it looks that we need to use 2d pointer adder but how to get the exact location from the end point and draw two lines

How do you design a simple architecture on Revit and import the IFC file to FME and then convert it to citygml format. Thank you so much.

Hi, I am new for using FME to create PostgreSQL database and having trouble updating schema or adding columns to the existing table. so to explain in detail: 1) I have different councils 3 waters pipe data which I want to add to my database2) I have already done extracting, and transforming of data but now I want to load data coming from different councils into a single PostgreSQL database3) So I am using FME writer format "PostgreSQL" and table (say Table1) definition as "Automatic" and ok till I have added the data from one council having 52 columns4) Now when I am trying to add data into same postgresql database table (Table1) from other council having 79 columns in it ... my database is not accepting data from those new columns came from new council 79-52= 27 columns into my existing database table Any comment or recommendation on this will be great!

There are GML/FGDB dataset with "round conner polygon" or multilines geometry which is mixed "curve and lines". It can't be written into GPKG file.src dataset geometryThe output geometry is IFMENullHow can fix it?
