I am trying to install the custom transformer GeographicAreaCalculator which was downloaded to C:\\Users\\GUANA\\AppData\\Roaming\\Safe Software\\FME\\FME Store\\Transformers\\GeographicAreaCalculator/fmx on my FME desktop. I follow this article https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Desktop_Documentation/FME_Coordinate_Systems/Workbench/Sharing_Custom_Resources.htm to publish my workspace while adding this fmx file. The publishing succeeded, but when running the workspace on the server, it stills say this custom transformer does not exist on the FME server.

On Server, is the fmx in the Resources/Engine/Transformer folder?

@hkingsbury, Resources/Engine/Transformer is empty.

@hkingsbury, Resources/Engine/Transformer is empty.

Upload the custom transformer to there and server should find it correctly.

 

When you published the FMX, did you open it up and publish it to a repository as a workbench?

@hkingsbury​ , Ok, when in Resources/Engine/Transformer, I uploaded the fmx to the server, it works now. Thanks. This is better method than publishing the workspace, which does not work in my case. Thanks for the hint.
