window authenticated users can't access FME Server UI

Connect to our company LDAP service in the FME Server's Windows Authentication service with the Single Sign On enabled, bring an user from LDAP and assign the user the fmesuperuser or fmeadmin role. But the user gets this error when login with Windows Authentication "you are not authorized to use this web application". Did I miss anything in the configuration of this user?

Deploy FME Server on the Digital Ocean droplets Cloud and ESRI systems

Hi everyone!In order to reduce increases, we want to move the FME Server in the cloud, currently on the AWS platform, to the Digital Ocean platform.The best options are installation on top of Linux.I know FME will work great with Linux, our problem is that we work continuously with ESRI systems (sde,gdb), and I know it requires an ArcPro or Enterprise license, at least on Windows.Is the situation similar in Linux?I ask, because ArcGis Pro does not have a Linux deployment option.Would appreciate help!Thanks!

Microsoft Graph Type Application Web Connection's Token keeps expiring

Hi everyone,We are using this web connection MS Graph Type Application https://hub.safe.com/publishers/supporter/web-connections/microsoft-graph-type-applicationWe have the required details below: - Tenant-ID- Client-ID- Client SecretHowever, this keeps expiring every hour and we have to re-authenticate every time. Screenshot of the expiry time below:Is there a solution to this? There are other articles about Microsoft Graph Teams but the configuration is different.In our configuration, we keep the default setting and I notice the grant_type=client_credentials. 1. Do we need to ask our Cloud team to grant us a refresh token & grant_type = refresh_token?2. Also, do we need to ask them to add the fmeoauth URL to the Redirect URI in the MS Graph App like how we normally do with other Oauth2 App?If these need to be added, should they be mentioned in the hub?Many thanks!

Upgrading server from 2020 to 2022, changed behaviour with automations output

Hi list.I've just upgraded our FME Server from 2020.2.5 to 2022.2.2.I'm still using the 2020 workspaces, and I've noticed a changed behaviour.I did some test with Automation a while back, and thus have some remnant automation output features in some workspaces. In 2020 these worked well, yielding no erros or warnings, but in 2022 a runtime error like this is logged:AUTOMATIONS_2: Server connection error.  Unable to send Event to automation route 'Trin2a': { ..... }Why does this throw an error ?Luckily it doesn't matter in this workspace, but I have used Automation extensively elsewhere (nightly data-imports), so I am concerned about whether my other workspaces, that have active automation logic, will work?Is the error above just a disclaimer that it didn't run in a started automation, and so doesn't have anything connected to my "Trin2a" automation feature output, and warns about it in version 2022 (but not in 2020) ?Any insights about this is welcome.Oh well, I guess I'll see what hap

Is there a way around the 255 character limit?

Hi, we have a process that takes an email with an .xml attachment (generated from a pdf form) and processes the data to SQL. We have an email inbox watch setup to catch any emails that come through. What happens though, is it concatenated the email subject, the xml file name ans the directory path on the server together. But if this all goes over the 255 character limit, the process fails. We have found that some users are adding extra information in the email subject ans this is sometimes taking it over the limit. Is there a way to truncate the email subject before it hits the server and stop it from failing to process?

Preventing FME Server Workspace Job cancellation on closing tab/browser

In a FME Server workspace app, how do I prevent the job from being cancelled if i close the tab or browser before the job has finished? In our case the processing of the job takes a very long time, so I don't want to expect the user to leave the tab open all the time.

Which .NET components and versions does FME Server depend upon?

Hello all, Because of this Microsoft notice on e.o.l. for .NET Framework 4.5/6/7 I got questioned of the dependencies of FME Server. A quick search both on the Safe documentation, as on the interweb did not yield a satisfying answer, so I post it here... On which Microsoft .NET components and versions thereof does FME Server depend? Will upgrading to .NET Framework 4.8 break an FME installation? Client asks for an official statement from us, or from Safe Software that upgrading the .NET framework won't cause any issues. [edit]: It involves both FME Server version 2021.1.1 and 2018.1  Kind regards, Martin p.s. I checked the Windows-FME-servers I have access to, and they all have .NET framework 4.8 installed, so I do have my gut-feelings on this subject. Also I would be more than astonished to hear Safe developing newer releases of their product using outdated Microsoft frameworks.Only those things won't convince the client involved.

Unable to import SSL certificate

I am in the process to change FME server from http to https per our cyber security requirements. I am relatively new to the ssl certification installation for web applications. I followed this article to install SSL certificate for FME server. https://community.safe.com/s/article/Using-a-CA-Certificate-with-FME-Server, I obtained a cer file successfully after submitting the CSR string to my company's CA authority. But this command fails to import the certificate for FME server: keytool -import -alias tomcat -keystore tomcat.keystore -trustcacerts -file D:\\FME\\certs\\hou0etgis16\\certnew_base64encoded.cerkeytool error: java.lang.Exception: Failed to establish chain from reply. I tried installing or not installing the root and intermediate certificates using the same cer file, but still the same error for the above command. Any idea? Allen

Why does my job start another instance of the same job after 5 minutes?

Hi,My workspace is reading data from excel and uploading it to gis database. Data streaming is used to be able to return an html to the user.  My implementation works if it's run natively from the fme application, but when it's uploaded to the server it will start a duplicate of the same job after 5 minutes. Both of these jobs will then run from start to finish, meaning that duplicates will be created.It seems that this happens only when the excel file has atleast 330 rows. I have also checked that engine does not crash.

Error 403 and WAR Folders

Sorry this is going to be a bit of a jumbled question: Recently we started having some issues on our FME Server - When accessing the URL "https://<hostname>.<domain>/fmeserver" would return an error 404. I found some information online involving the WAR folders found under: <ServerInstallDirectory>\\Utilities\\tomcat\\webapps\\ I followed the steps and regenerated the folders. Now when I access the URL: "https://<hostname>.<domain>/fmeserver" is works correctly! However... Now with the newly created WAR folders if I access the URL: "https://<hostname>.<domain>" (note: specifically excluding the /fmeserver) I get an error 404 not found. Previously we never had an issue with this. We have had some security policies updated recently by the security team, and I believe this could be the cause but I'm not 100% certain. If anyone has any ideas as to what would be causing this issue I'd love to hear it. Thanks!

installed FME Server upgrade and now can only use the web interface logged onto the server.

This morning I could use a remote browser to connect (non https) to our fme 2020.1 server. I'd been tasked with upgrading to 2022.1.2. All steps complete, express install, port 80 and the web interface on the server works fine. However, I now cannot connect from any remote browser. Today this has happened on 2 machines, 6 weeks ago I did exactly the same on our dev server and it all worked fine and remote connection is OK. I've looked at the troubleshooting guides etc and all looks ok, I'm close to hoping it just goes away!

Submit json data using FME REST

Hi folks I know this question has been asked before and there is a way to post json data directly via an HTTP Post Request as described here. The thing is that the web developer needs: An async processA download jobAnd the Job-ID returned back (which would work out using the param "opt_responseformat=json" when using http post - but it returns actually too much information which I see critical in terms of security) Regarding FME REST, I could not figure out how I ever could submit a job together with a JSON to be processed via FME as a result from the users selection on the frontend. The "fmerest/v3/transformations/submit/" would not accept my JSON to be used in the published parameters (I chose a simple text parameter to be fetched in FME for further processing). However, I get a 422 response (unprocessable entity). Do you have any suggestions what I can do here? Any alternatives that might work out better? Any help / hint is appreciated!Thanks in advance!

We operate currently the FME Server 2022.0.0.2 on the Windows Server 2022 Standart platformCompared to FME Cloud is web application interface slower.This mainly concerns the entry of files in "Published Parameters" when starting the application from the gallery (or directly starting the workbench),when after dragging the file, it is loaded according to the 100% indicator, but then it takes up to several seconds before the actual file name is displayed.We used chrome verse 103.0.5060.134 Don't know what the problem could be? Thank you for answer.
