Hi All,

After uninstalling FME server 2019 and installing FME server 2020 the server can not be contacted via the webinterface. All services are started like they should.

 

It returns a: HTTP Status 500 – Internal Server Error

 

I have reinstalled FME server several times, cleaned the registry, rebooted the server etc. But to no avail.

 

Does anyone have a tip how to solve this?

 

 

Hmm, looks like it's looking for a few files and can't find them. Seems like there is a problem somewhere in the web app config.

Different error but the fix seem to be to delete the files in that folder.

 

 

Possibly the web service does not have permission to create them in the first place during start-up. Check which user the service is running as and if it has permission to create files in Program Files.

@virtualcitymatt I had an epiphany!

 

I installed the FME server with a script, in the script I use the credentials of our non-prod environment. And this has to be the prod user...... sigh!

 

So installing it again with the prod user for the FME services solved the problem.

 

Sometimes you have to walk away and grab a beer, sit in the sun and let you thoughts go ;-)

 

And when I logged on to the system your answer popped up. So confirmation indeed LOL
