Hi, I am trying to make a simple WS (with only one transformer) to change the schema! Translation runs successfully but I dont see the final gdb . The error on the Inspector is showing that "failed to specify the feature index as constraints on the reader". What should I add and where? Both my reader and writer are File Geodb Open API.

I am creating a series of small jpeg files using a feature writer with each jpeg getting it's name from a unique value (myRLU_@Value(RLUOID)). I recently upgraded to 2022.1.1 from 2021.2 - things were working until I upgraded. I have 20 records coming into the FeatureWriter and 20 showing in the Summary port but no records passing through the output port.The FeatureWriter creates the jpgs but does not pass through the records to the testfilter transformer? Has anyone else had issues with this in 2022.1.1? Any ideas how to get this running again? Could this be helpful in diagnosing the issue: FeatureWriter_5: Bulk features are not supported because the expression contains a function call After playing around some more - looks like the issue is the FeatureWriter using an attribute as the output filename. When I change it to a "hard-coded" value, the records are available in the output port.

I want to use the same condition for each attribute, with the only variation being the attribute/field name of the attribute to which the condition applies.

I need to make a mapbook export (png/pdf) for different thematic maps with a large legend. For the boudingbox of the map I would like to insert a dynamic legend (filtered) based on the content in the bounding box.  

Hi, With FME I want to read a sde geodatabase. (feature class). For this I use the reader: “Esri Geodatabase (ArcSDE geodb)”. Until recently this worked. With ArcGis Pro an Attribute rule has been created for 1 field and since then the reader no longer works if the workspace is on FME server. If the workspace is run in FME desktop (not FME server) the reader will still work properly. The message I get when the workspace is running on FME server is: An error occurred while attempting to open the table, feature class or relationship class 'My_TABLE'. The error number from ArcObjects is: '-2147211773'. The error message from ArcObjects is: {The item does not have a definition.}  What could be the cause of this. FME server and FME Desktop are the same version. Greatings, Hans

I have a land cover raster with values that can be seen in ArcGIS Pro when looking at the raster's attribute table. When bringing this raster into FME using the "Esri Geodatabase (File Geodb Raster Dataset)" Reader, the raster is brought in with no attribute values (see screenshot). Looking for help with bringing the raster into FME so that the attribute records will be populated with the raster's values shown in the ArcGIS attribute table? A smaller example raster that was clipped from the larger raster can be found at http://robot.konturlabs.com/temp/rasters_temp.gdb.zip Thanks!

Question of the WeekThis question was asked in Live Chat this week, but to be fair it has come up several times from various users...Q) I've forgotten the password to the admin account on our FME Server. Is there a way to recover it? A) In short, no! But because the FME Server Support team has seen an increasing number of cases recently where a customer is unable to log in because of a forgotten password, I think it's worth outlining what the options are at this point, and how to avoid getting here in the first place!What's the Default Admin Password?Up until recent FMEs, the default administrator account used to be admin/admin. You can see why we felt that wasn't a good choice, because it's so easy to guess.So now - although the default is still admin/admin - you are forced to change it when logging in for the first time. The username remains admin, but the password becomes one of your own devising.I've Forgotten the Admin Password - Now What?So at a later date

I tried the FMEFeature.reproject(coordSys) method but it can do only 2D reprojection. I want to do reprojection using Python only not with any transformer like EsriReprojector or CSmap.

Since updating our server to the newest version of FME Flow, the "Browse Resources" button is broken on workspace apps. Users can only upload their own temporary files. Uploading files is a functional workaround, but it is much slower than selecting a file from the network drive mounted on the server. I have verified that both my user account and the app have permission on the resource. For the app I have given List and View permissions to the folder.  Any recommendations?

I have a batch workspace that spawns multiple child workspaces using four separate FMEServerJobsubmitters. I have two engines in FME FLow but the other engine is occupied with other processes so I'm able to use only one engine. As i understood, if i set Wait for jobs to complete to "Yes" and Submit Jobs "In Sequence", FME Flow should spawn a sub-engine that will run the child workflows and once they are ready it will continue the parent process. This is the behaviour that I would need because I only want to continue parent workflow when all the child processes are successful. However, with this setup the first child process enters queue and never starts. It also shows in the parent log file that the submit was successful, but it ends up into queue. I have separate queues for the two engines and both the parent process and the child process are tied to engine2 running in queue2 so it should interfere with the other engine and queue. However, it seems that the par

Hello,​I need to print my workbench on size A0. It works fine for size A2 and smaller but for size A0 or A1 the workbench freezes or crashes. I tried with different workbenches , different Pc's and different PDF-creators but no success. I use FME 2019.1.Maybe someone has an idea to solve the problem?​

It may be beneficial to have some sort of limitation stopping brand new members from including external weblinks in their first post/ within the first day that the account is created. If the advertisement/bots become more of an issue, then something like that may help mitigate the problem without being overly limiting on legitimate users.

FME(R) 2021.1.0.0 (20210630 - Build 21607 - WIN64) I run 3 readers all with sql statements, the output writes to Oracle in 1 table. Ik never had problems (fme 2020) but with version 2021 I get an error : 2021-07-27 11:33:03| 142.5| 0.0|FATAL |An error occurred. Here is the information that FME was able to find on the error2021-07-27 11:33:03| 142.5| 0.0|FATAL |bad variant access If I run them individually there is no problem. When I run 2 of them at the same time thies error occurs. Why? How to prevent? 

Hi,I am using:FME2021.1 32-bitArcSDE Geodb writer, truncating the SQL Server table in 10.x geodatabaseVersioned Edit Session to feature class that is registered as versionedFME log claims success and that all writes were saved. No errors, warnings or anything indicating an issue in the log at all. The problem:Only even 1000 are written. For example, 9454 features result in that FME log displays all written successfully, but only 9000 features exist in the geodatabase. If i use cloner and increase the feature count to even 10 000 all features are saved. Any suggestions? 

You are trying to parse the IFC file into Obj and metadata through your company's FME Desktop.​I don't know why, but there is a problem that materials are not added to some objs. Please help in this regard.​The attached file is the workbench file used at this time.​​Regards,Bongsup Kim​​

I have workspace that's using Creator, Workspace Runner and Emailer to run a parent workspace. I would like to attach the log file to both the Successful and Failure emails?

Hi... I seek your assistance, sir/ma'am.I am currently trying to convert IFC to CityGML 3.0. In FME, only version CityGML 2.0 is available. I have found an example on GitHub that includes XSD files for each CityGML 3.0 feature (although it is still in draft phase). My question is, how do I incorporate these files into the FME write library? Your help is appreciated. Here is the GitHub link that contains the XSD files: https://github.com/tum-gis/ifc-to-citygml3/tree/master/xsds

We are getting an error while running FFS writer: Failed to write to file 'C:\\Users\\use\\AppData\\Local\\Temp "Please ensure that you have sufficient privileges to write this file, and that sufficient disk space is available" This should be a simple merging of .SHP file (3221) into a single FeatureClass in a GDB. The Reader set to read .shp in Single Merged Feature Type. Got a GeometryValidator set to degenerate or Corrupt geometry "Edit". A Tester to get the read shapes and then the GDB Writer. We have and checked that the user is admin on the box and folders, so Think the issue room for the temp file. this is running on a Server where c:\\ only has OS on it and not much space left after that. So can we run in a way that clears the Temp location after so many record run, or can we move the Temp to a larger drive??

Hello, I have a problem with INSPIRE validator. I created a ETL schema in my FME Desktop environment according to INSPIRE theme of Protected Sites. So I've done it by applying all the technical guides from INSPIRE, and solved all my previous validation errors except this one: The dataset has 1 file(s) with errors for this assertion.XML document 'ProtectedSites ETRS89_jasmin.gml': The file has 1 schema validation error(s).XML document 'ProtectedSites ETRS89_jasmin.gml': 1:729: cvc-elt.1.a: Cannot find the declaration of element 'gml:FeatureCollection'.When I use the Hale studio for transformation and get my GML, validation process goes smoothly, but with FME I have a problem. During my analysis I saw that in Hale Studio GML I have a longer <gml: FeatureCollection > tag in the xxsi:schemaLocation part. Here is the Hale xsi: schemaLocation: xsi:schemaLocation="http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/schemas/ps/4.0 https://inspire.ec.europa.eu/schemas/ps/4.0/Prot

Hello, I have just updated FME: 2022 -> 2023 (2023.0.2 (20230727 - Build 23338 - WIN64). Checking that this upgrade doesn't cause errors when running several important processes, I see this warning message in the log of one of them: POSTGRES Writer: Renamed user attribute 'attribute{0}.fme_data_type' to 'attribute{0}_fme_data_type' based on format constraints for invalid characters, length, and casePOSTGRES Writer: Renamed user attribute 'attribute{0}.name' to 'attribute{0}_name' based on format constraints for invalid characters, length, and case This message was absent with the previous version. The transformer concerned is a FeatureWriter whose parameters are shown below. It has two upstream branches: one for table schemas, the other for features. Adding all these entries to the log file slows down processing considerably and, when many features are processed, the file can even saturate the disk (up to 40GB!). I've temporarily deactivated t

Hi Support, Just wondering when the official FME 2024 version is expected to be released. Thank you

Hi there, Just wondering if anyone else is getting locked out of Sharepoint with the connector transformer....it seems to have started last week when MS further eroded support for IE but we dont know if it related...basically, we have been using the SharePointOnlineConnector for months without issues...but now all of our workbenches are failing with the attached error message. --We can/have re-authenticated the connection with no problems, but it just keeps throwing this error...any thoughts anybody? Thanks very much!

Hi There,After a recent upgrade of ArcPro (to v 3.1.0) I am now seeing this notation in FME Desktop and FME Server logs....Current installed ArcGISPro version '3.1.0' is unsupported. Minimum supported version is '2.3.0', and maximum supported version is '3.0.0'....what does this mean exactly?...do I need to upgrade FME?...on Desktop it doesnt seem to make a difference (I can still successfully run operations), but now some Scheduled Services are failing in FME Server and I am wondering if this is the reason. Thank you 

I am running a translation in batch and it is failing when it attempts to cleanup temporary files. Is there a setting that will allow it to continue when this is encountered? ERROR |Failed to delete the following files: 'D:\\Projects\\temp\\fctspatrel1688832115746_12608_1'. Please ensure that the files are not in use and that you have sufficient privileges to delete them.
