i am new to FME Server. I have several workspaces that uses the fanout option in the writer.

 

An very basic one is reprojecting coordinates in a excel file.

 

The current workspace takes the input filename (FME_BASENAME) and concatenates CONVERTED_ as a prefix for the new output filename.

 

when I published this to FME Server as data download service, the translation is successful the logs shows no errors, the jobs status show completed successful but I get a failure and no file for download.

 

Also no file in the RequestResults folder.

 

Set the fanout folder to FME_SERVER_DEST_DIR, set the attribute to fanout on as concatenated attribute (and possibly set the fannout suffic to .xls(x) depending on whether or not it's already included in the attribute
Yes good answer from @jdh - and this article covers the issue as well. For FME Server 2016 we've improved Writer Fanout for the Data Download Service and this should work without the workaround.
