This is probably out there... FME Server engines run under a service account, we have Oracle database that use OS authentication, so users can authenticate into these databases. On FME desktop this works just fine, as FME desktop runs under the users credentials. It would be really nice to find a way to do this on FME Server. So, does any one see any kind of pathway to make a some sort of a call to FME Server to shutdown an engine, re-start it as the user, run a job, and then re-start it back as the service account ?

 

 

That sounds like a very unwieldy scenario.

 

 

In the ideal, you can set up a multitier authentication environment

Alternatively,

 

Could you give the service account equivalent permissions to your users?

 

Could you change the oracle authentication to LDAP?
