Esri geodb_subtype_name not avilable in 2014

I upgraded FME Desktop from 2011sp4 to 2014. When I choose an Esri MDB as a reader the geodb_subtype_name is not found. I have checked the Additional Attrubutes but its not in the list. However it shows the geodb_subtype_name data when I look at it in the Data Inspector. Same machine I've been using for over 2 years with Esri Runtime and FME Desktop2011. Any thoughts Chris

REST token with Active Directory Securioty

Hello, I have used the sample REST C# code supplied by Safe to create a simple application. The sample code provided can be located here: http://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Server_Documentation/Content/REST/FMEServerRestAPIdemo.cs We have two FME Servers here, one in a test environment, and another for production. I have written my code against the test server, which uses standard security, using user and password managed by FME Server. Everything works fine. However, when I use my code against the second server, which is secured by the Active Directory, I always get error 401, access denied. Is there anyone out there that has used the REST API with Active Directory security? Here is an example of the code I use to fetch a token: private string GetFmeServerToken() { string fmeTokenUrl = this.Serveur + "/fmetoken/service/generate"; NameValueCollection parameters = new NameValueCollection(); parameters["user"] = ; "user"; // tried with and without domain name parameters["password"] = "pas

PythonCaller error

We are using a PythonCaller to get some simple info from an input file to be used to validate the file is OK to process: import hashlib import fmeobjects def fileInfo(feature): log = fmeobjects.FMELogFile() try: dir = FME_MacroValues['SourceDirectory'] fileName = FME_MacroValues['SourceTileId'] file = dir + "\\\\" + fileName + ".TIF" digest = hashlib.md5(open(file, 'rb').read()).hexdigest() fileSize = os.path.getsize(file) >> 20 feature.setAttribute("actual_fileSize", fileSize) feature.setAttribute("actual_md5", digest) pass except Exception, e: log.logMessageString(str(e), fmeobjects.FME_ERROR) Even though this works and we can test on the 2 attributes created we get the following errors: Bridge failed to output feature on tag `PYOUTPUT' PythonFactory failed to process feature PythonFactory failed to process feature and so the validation messages I want to get out are lost in the log. Any ideas what I am doing wrong here?

Runtime Error! Microsoft Visual C ++ Runtime Library

To create the Readers / Writers gives me no problems but when I run the workbench: I get the error I mention in the Subject, and also adds the following: "Program: E:\\apps\\FME\\fme.exe This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information" And I do not know why this happens to me or how to fix it I would be very grateful if someone could help

ESRI licensing *cough nightmare* on FME Server

One question. How can I make sure that a workspace only runs if it has an ArcInfo license available? That is - I want to check out the license before running the workspace (For instance in the python-script) ? Not sure if this approach GUARANTEES that the license will not be used by someone else between the startup script and after a long processing (1 hour) starting the writer?

FME Objects in Visual Studio 2012

Hello - I've built applications using FME Objects in previous versions of Visual Studio, first back in VB6 then in VB.NET in VS 2005. I'm now trying to use FME Objects again in C# within VS 2012 and am getting stuck. Stuck at the very beginnging. If I try to include this in a class library I get an FMEOException when it tries to create a session. The operative part of the code is below. IFMEOSession m_pFMESession = null; System.Collections.Specialized.StringCollection pSettings = new System.Collections.Specialized.StringCollection(); pSettings.Add("FME_DEBUG"); pSettings.Add("BADNEWS"); pSettings.Add("FME_USE_RICH_GEOMETRY"); pSettings.Add("yes"); m_pFMESession = FMEObject.CreateSession(); // Fails here I've been told that FME Objects was built with an older version of the .NET library so I need to include an App.Config to reference the old runtime. My App.Config looks like this: <?xml version="1.0"?> <configuration> <startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true"> <supportedRuntime

Hide disabled objects

Hi, I have a very complex workbench with a lot of different scenarios where I run only one or two or maybe more parts of it sometimes, while others are disabled within bookmarks. Maybe It could be done differently (splitting in few workbenches, simplifying, ..). But let it be like it is:) Working like this, I realized that It would be very nice if there will be some option which hides all disabled parts ofthe workspace (i.e. transformers, connections), not just coloring them light gray. One simple click on the icon "hide/show":) And I get better and cleaner workspace overview.

Pythoncaller error in FME2013 using external lib that include dll

Hi, I'm using pythoncaller in FME2013 to manipulate an xml (it's a legacy workbench I have to maintain). I use the python interpreter that is installed outside of FME. Since we upgrade to FME2013, I get an error when importing external python libs that depends on .dll or .pyd files. I get this error: Python Exception <ImportError>: DLL load failed Is there a specific limitation of FME2013 with libs that contains .dll and .pyd? Thanks Jean-Sebastien

Log request

I do realize it's possible using the startup script, but it would be nice to have the time/date recorded at the beginning of the log when a translation is started. If a user wanted to know during a translation when it was began, they would have it in the log. Maybe it's there, and I'm overlooking it?

FME 2013 Startup question and suggest

Hi, FME 2013 may connect to amazon AWS cloud service to update some data like FME Store or something else. And I donn't know if the reason is Chinese network, just like we always cann't browse Youtube, Twitter, etc, and have problems to use any Google services from time to time. I have to spend a few minutes to startup FME 2013 for some times. But if I disable my network or use firewall to block FME to connect WWW, it gets normal. So would this problem be fixed by doing some modified to the stage of connecting web? Thanks.

FME Pluginbuilder Function C++

Hi, has anyone ever tried to build a FME function with C++ and using MinGW (gcc 4.7.2) instead of VS as compiler? This is how far i got with the included CenterOfMass sample: - DevC++ builds the CenterOfMass_func.dll and can link it. I only had to add on additional header file (sdtlib.h) to make size_t available. - FME recognizes the dll and loads it, i see the statement about the correct API version in the log - i can do cout outputs i both the createFunction- and destroyFunction, so FME has loaded the module and does use both. - it does not seem FME enters the execute function at all. I've put a cout in the first line but it does not get printed - I've tried using the function with both FMEFunctionCaller and CenterOfMass transformer I've not succeded to get GDB working correctly and placing break points in the code, so for now i'v just doing printing those debug statements. Any C++ experts out here? And yeah, i know there is a free VS edition and most likely the sample will work out
