Not sure if it might benefit others but I’ve recently had to enable HSTS to harden the HTTP redirect from Port 80 to 443.Edited the web.xml file and located the HSTS Comments. (~Line 468)Added the below filters <!-- Enable HSTS   --><filter>    <filter-name>httpHeaderSecurity</filter-name>    <filter-class>org.apache.catalina.filters.HttpHeaderSecurityFilter</filter-class>    <init-param>        <param-name>hstsEnabled</param-name>        <param-value>true</param-value>    </init-param>    <init-param>        <param-name>hstsMaxAgeSeconds</param-name>        <param-value>31536000</param-value>    </init-param>    <init

Version: FME Flow 2024.0.1Build 24202 - win64Issue:Click “Backup & Restore - Create Backup” or “System configuration - System Cleanup” or “System configuration - Network & Email”, error message “Error communicating with FME Server host localhost” will pop up. All other functions works fine, I only noticed this when try to create a backup. FME Flow is accessible through http://localhost:8080/fmeserver/ 

On FME Server 2022.1.1, me and a fellow colleague noticed we cannot download any FMW files from the Workspaces page.Upon opening a Chrome console, we both get the following errors when trying: Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 ()main-es2015.4568b5467a926bd0ac9b.js:1 ERROR TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'body')  at HTMLIFrameElement.j [as __zone_symbol__ON_PROPERTYload] (safe-software-app.22623.min.js:10:16906)  at HTMLIFrameElement.w (polyfills-es2015.e7ece7f15ffd343d735b.js:1:35186)  at u.invokeTask (polyfills-es2015.e7ece7f15ffd343d735b.js:1:25728)  at Object.onInvokeTask (main-es2015.4568b5467a926bd0ac9b.js:1:526473)  at u.invokeTask (polyfills-es2015.e7ece7f15ffd343d735b.js:1:25649)  at a.runTask (polyfills-es2015.e7ece7f15ffd343d735b.js:1:21137)  at l.invokeTask [as invoke] (polyfills-es2015.e7ece7f15ffd343d735b.js:1:26778)  at

Hi all, I need some advice for 2 issues in FME server, which are possibly related:1. Memory Issue (Insufficient memory available -- error code was 2 - please read the FME Help section 'Adjusting Memory Resources' for workarounds.):I have an issue with a workbench I’ve made in FME desktop which behaves differently when run on FME server. Both environments have the same memory constraints.The issue occurs when I try to load a handful (<5) of files into my workspace, which generally can handle upwards of 400 regular files. The files themselves aren’t much different (no odd characters that might trip the process up), but FME seems to get stuck on a subset of them, and keeps churning until all memory is used up. As mentioned, this only happens in FME Server.On failing a Job due to no memory, it tries again: (Failed to free sufficient memory to reach the process usage

Hi all, I am running FME Flow 2023.1 and have a flow app with a handful of mandatory parameters which the user enters and clicks 'OK'. If the user does not enter all parameters and attempts to run the app, they get a 'Please supply a list for parameter' error.If the user re-enters all the parameters and attempts to run the app, the 'OK' button is now greyed-out. The user must refresh the page and start again.is there a reason for this behaviour?It's pretty annoying to have the user re-enter all parameters again if they have forgotten to enter a mandatory field. thanks

When in automations you work with the dynamic workspace runner the workspace field blanks after hitting [apply]. It is annoying and confusing because some times the chosen parameter value is not forgotten and some time it is forgotten!? I believe this is a bug but have not seen any mentioning of this in here. So appologies if this is a known issue expected to be solved in next release!Before [apply]:After [apply]:

Where to find FME Server 2022.x Java API documentation?

Hi I am trying to run a workspace in server (my first!) and am getting the following error: "Unable to perform any licensing related tasks. Please check your Esri ArcGIS Compatibility workspace parameter, found in Navigator -> Workspace Parameters -> Translation. This 64-bit version of FME requires ArcGIS Desktop along with 64-bit Background Geoprocessing; ArcGIS Pro; or ArcGIS Enterprise. Refer to this this article http://fme.ly/qua for more details" ArcGIS Pro Advanced 3.1 is installed on the machine with a single use licence. The version of FME Server is 2022.2.5 so that should be compatable. The original workbench runs fine and the ESRI workspace parameter is set to ArcGIS Pro. Does anytone have any ideas as how to resolve this? Thanks

I have a number of workspaces to allow users to convert data between various formats. After upgrading our server to Flow from Server 2023 I had to republish these to get them to work, and for the most part it seems ok. I register each workspace with the job submitter and data download services, and use $(FME_MF_DIR) for temp storage of the uploaded data. So far so good...  Then there is that one workspace: It is defined the same way as the others, but this will not allow me to select "User Can Upload" when I define the workspace app. The other apps I set up with Service: Data Download and check User Can Upload. For this one workspace the option is not there unless I choose Service: Job Submitter, but then I am not able to download the results.  I can run the workspace manually in Flow, upload files and get a download link to the results, but can't get it to work as an app Any ideas to what this can be?

Hi Folks - I would like to use the FME Server API to get a list of the Web Connections that a workspace uses. I see that there is an endpoint for GET /repositories/< repository >/items/< item >/parameters , but this doesn't provide details regarding the Web Connections configured for the workspace.  I currently have a query like:http://domain.com/fmerest/v3/repositories/repo_name/items/workspace_name.fmw/parameters ... and wondering how to change this to get the Web Connection details as well. In the implementation notes of the endpoint above I see the info below, but I am not sure how to use the create a query using the "Sub-type: Web Connection Parameter"  Sub-type: Web Connecti

If a user follows a direct link to a workspace app or an app gallery, and there is authentication required, a login screen appears.  If using 'normal' login with username / password, after login the user gets redirected to the URL in the workspace link., which is correct. However, if I use a Microsoft Azure AD login ('log in with microsoft'), the user always gets redirected to de base URL of FME server and not to the app. Is there somewhere a setting we should set to redirect to the url of the app instead of the base url ?

How to provide/use gRPC flow with FMEflow?

 hello everyone I want to produce a point from this data in text format and the XY values ​​I need are in a single stub. The FME dataset area is common for x and Y. I will bring these XY values ​​side by side and produce a point from the vertex creator, but I did not know how to do this.

Hi,I'm trying to ingest log files into Azure monitor so I can send out organisation wide notifications but i've run into an issue. When I look into the machine that flow is installed on, I can see that it is storing logs in folders in batches of 1000 and it will create new folder each time it hits a multiple of 1000. I can process files into Azure, but this doesn't seem to work with a wildcard in the /current/ folder - it needs a folder that already exists. Is there a way to write these logs all to the same folder? The file pattern/query i'm using: C:\\ProgramData......logs\\engine\\current\\jobs\\*\\job_*.txtMany thanks, Sam

I performed the express install of FME Flow 2023. Then I restored a backup from FME Server 2021. I do not see the backup schedule promised at https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME-Flow/AdminGuide/Perform_Scheduled_Backup.htm. Did my restore over write it? How can I automate a backup of FME Flow?

Hi all, Is there a way to remove the word '(optional)' when generating a Flow App?I find unnecessary text too noisy for the user...they don't need to see the text (optional) on the app. Be good if there was an option to turn this prompt off?? thanks,Tim

Hi Group, Imagine I create a workspace in Form which is then published to Flow. I'd then run this via Flow, and it runs fine. But if I then make a change in the original workspace in Form (even a tiny change like change the destination of a writer, or add a new transformer somewhere), do I then have to republish the workspace from Form to Flow? Or does Flow automatically pick up on changes made to the workspace in Form? Thanks,Stuart 

I have a 3D dataset of lines several lines contain large spikes - like the one in the screen shot and attached template. I tried using the SpikeRemover but it doesn't seem to work - Does the Spike remover just not work on spike in the Z direction - the documentation doesn't really help identify why it doens't work?  Failing that is there another way to remove points like the (z points which are about 100 meters off from the expected position). I started going down the line of extracting coordinates and trying to identify them that way but it seems like there must be a better way
