Hi, i'm trying to run a simple workbench with @DateTimeNow(local) on FME 2018 (build 18578)  / windows 7 French but i get this error:

 

DateTimeStamper: Failed to load timezone data. current_zone() failed: A mapping from the Windows Time Zone id "Romance standard time" was not found in the time zone mapping database.. Please visit http://www.safe.com/support
DateTimeStamper: Failed to evaluate expression '@DateTimeNow(local)'. Result is set to null

 

It works with FME2017.1 running on  Windows 7 fr or FME2018 running on windows 10 fr.

 

Do you know what to do to avoid that?

Thank you,

David

Bonjour!

What happens if you change your local timezone for something else?

Same behavior when moving to English (US)

Sounds like a bug. I would try the latest FME version.

I've asked our developers about this. I'm hoping that you can somehow add a mapping from Romance Standard Time to its equivalent (CET?). If not, we might need to add a fix for FME2019, meaning that the short term fix is to change the timezone on your computer if possible. But I'll let you know.

Oh, actually it just occurred to me that you could try @DateTimeNow(localUnzoned) and it might work without an error.

Same error, only @DateTimeNow(utc) is working

Too bad i tried to change my regional settings, not timezone :/

When i change timezone to W. Europe Standard Time it work.

 

But FME 2018 work with Romance Standard Time with windows 10 or windows 2012 server..
