Hi,
our FME Server (2016.1.3.2 - Build 16717 - win64) fails when I click on Resources.
A lot of time is spent waiting, and in the end I get the message that there are no files or folders.
Also, top left corner says "Error communicating with server".
I also tried the REST API (this endpoint: /resources/connections), which just hangs.
Any suggestions will be much appreciated.
Thanks

+60Can you provide a bit more background information? Are the resources stored on the same machine as the FME Server core or are they on a different server?
Certainly :-)
The installation has a corehost with server and 2 engines, and an enginehost with 4 engines.
All resources are on the corehost, and reachable from engine-host via UNC-path.
The corehost is installed pretty much as in the docs for distributed/custom installation, and the enginehost is installed pretty much as described in
And the system has been working for several months. I tried moving files out of the way (we store a number of files under Data and Temp directories). But this didnt help.
+10Hi @mineisdfe,
If you have already tested removing files manually from the eight directories in resources then I might focus on permissions and see if the service account running fme server has full read/write permissions to that directory. This is a good overview of permissions.
and this is our resource troubleshooting article which may also be useful.
