Hi,

I have problem creating an excelfile in a script that I published in FME server. I get an outputfile with type "file" and not ".xlsx". I can use the file to drag and drop it to an empty excel sheet. However what I really want to do is to create an excelfile. I am using a published parameter in my writer that looks like this .image Also please check my parameters for the excelwriter.

imageAm i missing something important?

 

The version on FME desktop: 2020.1.3.0

The version on FME server: 2020.2.3

I think you might just need to specify the extension in the parameter when running it. Is there a reason you can't/don't want to include an extension?

Hi, thanks! I thought the extenstion came from the configuration parameter. But now I know that I need to specify the extension in the Default value parameter!

Regards
