Hello all,

I'm very new to FME technology and don't know much about desktop either server.

We have data interoperability extension for ArcMap and ArcGIS Server.

Just to figure out how it works I prepared a tool converts KML to SHP. The tool works fine on desktop but when I publish it as geoprocess on the server it doesn't return any output. However, I can find the output shapefile in the scratch folder.

Should I configure something while creating the ETL tool or on the server?

Hi @cagri The folder you are writing to from the desktop (that works)... does this folder exist with respect to the ArcGIS Server environment? I'm not sure exactly how ArcGIS Server would deal with a folder that doesn't exist. Also, in case you happen to be using UNC paths for the destination, then the ArcGIS Server service might not have permissions to write to that location. Check in on that.

However, if the above is the case I would have expected some report of an error.

Hello @SteveAtSafe, the folder and the file are created by ArcGIS Server. You can see it under messages in the attachment. So the tool works fine on the server as well.

But it was supposed to return this information under the results, as JSON.
