General

I have a workspace with a custom transformer that contains GeometryValidator transformer. The transformer should check fme_geometry for basic geometry checks. The workspace works fine in FME Desktop when is run locally. When the workspace is loaded onto FME Server I get the above error message in the logger. Before hitting that transformer the native coordinates of the feature are converted from WKT (the format which enters the workspace) before that transformer (the GeometryValidator) I have also other checks that prevent the process to proceed if the WKT is empty or the area is smaller than a certain threshold, for some reasons when I test it with smaller areas or empty strings the transformer is called and produces the above error. Also, I tried to disable the GeometryValidator transformer but I still get that error, when the data does not even pass by that transformer. If I remove the transformer from the workspace and I upload it to server then everything works fine but I would

I have developed a workspace that makes a HTTP call then returns the parsed JSON response. It runs from FME desktop successfully, but when published to FME Server as a streaming service I get the following errors:Creator_CREATED Brancher -1 4(BranchingFactory): MAXIMUM_COUNT clause must specify an integer. Value 'None' is invalidMAXIMUM_COUNT clause must specify an integer. Value 'None' is invalidFrom the logs it's failing just initializing the workbook and before trying to connect and make the HTTP call. I was unable to find a similar error anywhere else.

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.ThanksMichael NeidhardtSDFE

I have a workspace that runs correctly on FME Desktop, but when I run it on FME Server it fails. I am new to FME Server, but feel like I have set things up correctly after viewing the tutorials several times.Attached is a log file for the failed workspace run. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks

I am wondering if it is possible to use the FME Server Failover configuration to set-up a semi-automatic failover system. Rather than sharing a fault tolerant web application server and database between the production and failover FME Server Cores and FME Engines, could the failover web application server and database be created or restored manually when the production environment fails? See the attached architecture that I am proposing.To put it another way, I would like to use FME Server Configuration backups and FME Database backups to restore our production FME Server environment in a failover environment after the failover has occurred. This would just help us avoid having to request a new FME Server license when we are restoring to a new environment in the event of a server failure.

Hi,Since we upgraded FME Server a few months ago from 2016 to 2017 I've been unable to chain jobs together successfully when using the FMEServerJobSubmitter Transformer. I have two workbench's on server which need to run in sequence, the workbenches are run in sequence by creating a third workbench utilising the FMEServerJobSubmitter transformer. Since upgrading to 2017 the 3rd workbench used to chain the jobs together just hangs on server when run until i eventually cancel this?   All jobs are set to run on the same engine, it's as if the the chain jobs workbench is waiting for the 1st workbench to run, however because the chain jobs workbench is running it needs to clear before the first workbench can run!? Never has this issue with Server 2016?It's worth noting that since we upgraded from 2016 to 2017 we increase

This should be done with the kmlpropertysetter in the workspace but it is not working, my version of FME is 2017.1.2.1 This is a part of the fme-desktop-basic-training-2017 what is wrong?

Hi Team Fmeiers, I wanted to change the publish parameter value in fme server for each run. for example existing system we have is:fme desktop,in my fmw file the buffer value is published. and every time i run thru batch file, i can change the buffer values by editing batch file.fme.exe c:\\temp\\create_road.fmw --buffer 50fme.exe c:\\temp\\create_road.fmw --buffer 100fme.exe c:\\temp\\create_road.fmw --buffer 150here the bat file calls the same fme workspace three times with different buffer values.calling this batch file windows scheduler , three different time intervals.  upgraded to fme server 2017Now, this fmw file is published in fme server and this job is scheduled in server three times a weekhow can I achieve the same task using fme server.  your help will be appreciated. 

  Thanks Safe  

Is there a way to extract a JSON list of the jobs that have been canceled or failed? I can only really see a list for jobs that are either queued, running or completed? Ideally this would be great if this could be accessed via the REST API

I have a lot of scripts that all write to point feature classes in a 10.4.1 SDE Database in SQL Server 2012.  The source comes from one of 3 databases types, SQL 2012, SQL 2014, or Oracle 11G.  They all are the same as far as errors go so either it's my SDE or FME itself.I even inspected everything I could and on a few I did get error while running and cleared up those small data issues, but they all produce the same error codes on crash dialog box I show at the bottom of this post when I close the Inspector app.I have tried to redo from scratch a few of my scripts but they ALL are crashing like I show below.  I am using the latest version 2017.7.27.17725, I had 2017.7.27.17539 and it did the same exact thing and I thought upgrading would do the trick, but no....  I have redone all my readers and writers, fished through all my data and data types, redone queries, redone my writer feature classes in my SDE, and even filtered the coordinates to fit in the state be

Hello,is there online service to convert data with FME. We need it just time to time? API interface would be appriciated.

HiI want to use FME Server to work with data from Database (DB1) and Fileshare (FS1) and transform them and place in Database (DB2) and Fileshare (FS2). All Source and Destination resources are located on different, separate machine. Do I need to run FME Server services (FME Serv App Server, FME Serv Core, FME Serv Database, FME Serv Engines) on such user account which has an access to all resources DB1, FS1, DB2 and FS2?

In FME Desktop, the FME Script ends with Successful translation. But when running in FME Server, it stops after Total Features Written based on the log file. Does not close the geodatabase and does not show the translation was successful log. This is why the job is marked as failed in FME server. Reader and Writers are both ArcGIS SDE Geodatabase

I have two Netapp share locations mounted to an instance of FME Server on Linux. These locations are setup as FME Server Resources. Jobs can successfully write out to one of them but not the other. All permissions are EXACTLY the same on both Netapp shares. I am at a loss as to what could be going on here.

Hello,I've a master model that calls multiple job submitter and it successfully runs on FME Desktop. However, when I run it on FME server, even though the transaction was said to be successful, FME Server still reports as translation failed."FMEWorkspaceRunner: The translation failed, review log for details"I check the log and it does not have any error. Can you please give advice to where I should look to resolve this issue?I'm using FME Server 2015, FME Desktop 2015 and ArcGIS 10.3

Hi,We recently upgraded FME Server to 2017, our schedules are running correctly however when running a workspace through the web interface it return an error message "There was an error submitting the job".Any suggestions welcome.Thanks,Chris

Hi,We've just upgraded FME server from 2016 to 2017. The restore has been successful and all repositories and schedules are currently up and running with the exception of those workbenches where the FMEServerJobSubmitter transformer is embedded. They are failing because the FME Server web url has been modified during the upgrade procedure and now requires the port number to be suffixed to the url, for exampleshould be - http://scnfme.mycounil.govcurrently - http://scnfme.mycouncil.gov:8080How can the port number be removed from the url? I have modified the url settings in services to no avail.Thanks in advance,Chris

If I hit the Topic Monitoring Tab: The current status says Connecting.After a few seconds the Current Status returned to stopped.The status is never "Started"Any advice to get the Topic Monitoring working?

I have an FME Server workbench that is registered with the data download service, and the download link is correctly included in the success email when ran on-demand. However when scheduled and linked to a default topic (DATADOWNLOAD_ASYNC_JOB_SUCCESS) that the Data Download success email is subscribed too, no download link is contained within the email.What am I missing?

Hi,We have some apps based on examples from FME Playground. I wonder how to deploy them and transfer except that manually? I used to put them directly into FME Server's tomcat webapps folder. But there is no way to include them into Project and thus, backup them.Maybe it would be possible to add ability to easily add URL redirection to a folder inside repository on FME server. That way including Repository folder inside a project will include web app as well.Thanks,

Hi,It would be useful to be able to change the color scheme of FME Server web interface, to quickly distinguish between DEV and PROD server.Thanks

With FME Server 2016, I licensed with a temporary license, but now I want to put the permanent license, and the web page Engines & Licensing don´t show the button necessary. Look below:

Apart from being able to connect to Oracle or SQL Server, is there any major difference between the express and distributed installation for FME Server
