Hello,

I am having issues when using the GEODATABASE_SDE writer in the below environment. I am referencing the sde connection file from a FME Server resource location and then override the credentials within the workspace. The log shows it getting to the below lines and just hanging forever. When I swap out the writer to be SDE30 it has no issues at all and completes as expected.

I am at a loss as to what may be going on. I guess I could use the SDE30 writer but I would really like to understand why the more recent GEODATABASE_SDE isn't working.

Last three lines of log:

-FME API version of module 'GEODATABASE_SDE' matches current internal version (3.8 20170315)

-An ArcGIS license is already checked out. The product checked out is 'Advanced'

-Installed ArcGIS version is '10.5.1'

Environment:

FME Server 2017 on windows server 2012

SDE database 10.5.1 on top of Oracle 12c

Any help would be much appreciated!

Okay, i feel silly. Turns out the service account being used to write features was throwing a 7-day password expiration warning. Used another account and all seems fine now.
