What are you trying to write out to? We don’t really have enough information to go on with the above

Same problem trying to write to ESRI gdb native format
“Esri Geodatabase (File Geodb)”

Attatched a very simple workspace that throws an error in 2024.1 but works in 2022.1 (Have to replace the creator)
Running with Version combinations:

FME(R) 2024.1.0.0 (20240628 - Build 24612 - WIN64)

FME(R) 2022.1.3.0 (20220928 - Build 22630 - WIN64)

ESRI: ArcGis Pro 3.3.1

The 2022.1 versions throws warnings but it does the job..

The BADNEWS message usually appears when you have the ‘Log Debug’ option turned on. Unless you are having specific issues, I would turn that off. These messages can generally be ignored, unless you are working directly with Safe to debug.

Of course. I turned this option on after trying to solve the problem in normal mode.

But hopefully the debug option would clearify why the writer does not work.

Update on this topic:
This solved my problem:
Reinstalled FME (2024.1) and ArcGis Pro (3.3.1)
Changed language & Rewgion settings to English (US) only keeping my Norwegian language for the correct keyboard settings

FME
Esri ArcGIS Compatibility = Esri ArcGIS Pro:

Python scripting = Esri ArcGIS Python 3.11

Thanks folks, it’s was a great feedback, it shows that our community is alive.. Unchecking “Log Debug” was able to solve the error.
