I have a workspace which writes multiple tables to a single Geopackage. When running manually it works with no errors but when running via tasks scheduler it fails with the following error: 

OGCGEOPACKAGE writer: A file system object called '\\xxxx\output.gpkg' already exists.
2025-02-10 07:35:51|  25.2|  0.0|ERROR |OGCGEOPACKAGE writer: Unable to open or create file '\\xxxx\output.gpkg'.  Please ensure the specified file exists and is accessible
2025-02-10 07:35:51|  25.2|  0.0|ERROR |OGCGEOPACKAGE writer: An error has occurred. Check the logfile above for details

How can I avoid this happening? Is this happening because multiple writers trying to access the same GeoPackage file simultaneously, causing a conflict? 

Thank you!

Hello, ​@vassok!

Thank you for posting your question to the community. Sorry about the trouble of getting those tables into a geopackage.

Looks like FME is trying to write those tables but the writer is giving the same name to each table. Could you provide which version of FME you are using and is this on Flow or Form?

 

Best!
