I am having trouble with running a workspace with FME Data Express. The workspace is simple, to test out the geometry parameter on mobile, it just returns the coordinates to screen with an html writer, published as fmedatastreaming. The idea is to use it in a scavenger hunt if possible.

When I run the workspace with FME Data Express as fmejobsubmitter, it submits the job, and does its thing.

When I run the workspace with FME Data Express as fmedatastreaming, the job is never submitted to FME Server. In App I get the popup "Waiting for Data Streaming", which then goes away, and nothing happens. I checked with two colleagues at work, one with android gets the same behaviour as me, one with iOS it submits the datastreaming job correctly. So it may be an issue with the Android app. I don't know how to debug where the error occurs between the app sending(?), and the FME Server not receiving/rejecting(?) the job.

We have FME Server 2022.2. I also tested with the Safe demo server in this article https://community.safe.com/s/article/getting-started-with-fme-data-express-1 and got the same result (popup "Waiting for Data Streaming", then nothing happens).

Hi @ctredinnick, I've looked into it and haven't been able to consistently reproduce the error. Are you still running into issues with this?

If so, are you able to share your workspace so we can take a closer look?

@saraatsafe​  I found the issue. After you confirmed that it worked in your testing, I retried creating the workspace, and it worked with no issue. Literally just Creator -> AttributeCreator fetching the Geometry parameter -> HTML writer. But the original, identical workspace still failed to submit.

The only difference is the original workspace has a space in the filename. Adding/removing that space causes the app to be unable to submit the job.

Hi @ctredinnick, glad you were able to find a solution! If you run into any other DataExpress issues down the line please don't hesitate to reach out.
