Hello every body, hope you're fine ;-).

 

Here is my problem:

 

I have a process deployed on a FME server.

 

I want to use it from a .net WebSite with a FileUpload control to give, as input file parameter, a local file path.

The situation is: Local file on local computer call a website that goes to FME server to execute the process.

 

I use a url call :

http://servername/fmedatadownload/repository/fmeworkbench?token=generetedtoken&INPUT;_AUTOCAD_FILE=c:/blablapathto/file.dwg

 

 

But on the server log I Have this error:

 

AutocadReader: Error opening file ........ during version check.

What could it be?

 

 

thanks in advance.

 

 

Steph.

Hi @stephanemarly, that particular error is usually caused by an incorrect path, double check your path. I suggest checking out the FME Server REST API documentation, you can input your parameters and it will give you the correct path for what you are trying to achieve.

Even though it is a local file, sometimes using UNC paths helps correct the problem, give that a try too.

Hope that helps!
