Hi @mustafa.salah​ ,

This article would be a great place to start troubleshooting your SSL warning message.

As for the workspace, does it run successfully in Desktop? Is there a missing forward slash between $(FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_DATA) and source folder, so that it looks like this: $(FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_DATA)/source/RVT/folder. If possible, can you share the full job log here to take a closer look at what is occurring?

Thanks,

Kezia

Thanks the link was helpful, though the error is gone, the folder is not deleted.

It seems like this transformer is only deleting files, is there a way to delete the folders?

Hi @mustafa.salah​ ,

After testing out the transformer, it requires the Object ID, therefore the path would need to look something like this: FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_DATA/filesys/<folder>/<folder>

Using the file/URL parameter type won't work in this case. In Desktop, you can configure the user parameter for Object ID by selecting the 3 dots to point to a folder. Then create a user parameter with the down arrow. Once you select okay, your user parameter for Object ID will be saved.

Hope this helps!

Thanks a lot.

Actually this is the same settings I'm using:

Then in the FME server automation I assign the path to the folder to be deleted but it never worked.

One more note:

In the error message, I notice a strange URL, is it normal, or there is something wrong?

Hi @mustafa.salah​ ,

Thanks for the screenshot and additional information. The url is unusual looking. Are you using a mapped drive? This article may be helpful to look into if you have any mapped drive in your workspaces. Is the error message still present?

Are you able to share the whole job log here? What is the folder path that you're pointing to? It may be easier to get it working in Desktop and Run a Workspace page first before brining it into automations.

Thanks,

Kezia

Please find attached 2 log files where they have 2 different values to the URL.

I don't know why this part "/fmerest/v3/resources/connections/" is prefixing the URL!!

There is one update:

The error sort of gone(I can't see it anymore) but FME server still not deleting the folder.

This is my log: (Lines 49 and 50)While this is my folder trees:

So the only explanation is the transformer is deleting files (not folders), isn't it?

Also I'm attaching my log file.

Hi @mustafa.salah​ ,

Thanks for the additional and updated information. Going back to FME Desktop, are you able to access the file storage service from the "..." button next to the Object ID parameter in the FMEServerResourceConnector transformer?

If yes, are you able to point to data/destination/Extraction/Badr? What does the hardcoded path to Badr folder look like?

Does it look something like this? The path needs to include /filesys/ in order for the folder to be located and deleted successfully.  

Thanks,

Kezia

Aha, no it seems like I don't have permission.

How can I do it?

I just get the privilege from the FME administrator, now I can access the folder:

But I still not able to delete the folder from the automation in FME server:

I managed to solve the issue. It was the path captured wrongly by FME:

Rather than: "$(FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_DATA)/destination/Extraction/Sample_project_CRC_code_with_values"

It should be: "FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_DATA/filesys/destination/Extraction/Sample_project_CRC_code_with_values"
