Running Workspaces in series - FME Server

I think the WorkspaceRunner is the way to go.

Otherwise you'll have to do something with the output of workspace-1.fmw calling workspace-2.fmw.

Actually, with FME Server, you should look at building a master workspace, and have that utilize FMEServerJobSubmitter and FMEServerJobWaiter to run the wanted workspaces/jobs. Otherwise, in desktop, you would indeed need WorkspaceRunner.

I agree that the FMEServerJobSubmitter is the way to go. You can configure it to wait for the job to complete before it continues, which is probably what you're looking for.

I recommend having a look at the documentation before using the transformer, it's slightly more complex than what meets the eye:

As a general note: Don't use the WorkspaceRunner on FME Server, it won't work as you expect.

If the workspaceRunner could not work, is there any alternative solution to do that?

am using FME desktop just.

If you only use FME Desktop then you need to use the WorkspaceRunner.

I tried it but it could not work, the second workbench does not run

what shall be the issue in that?

Look in the FME log for errors. Also consider posting it as a separate question, try to give as many details as possible.

Hope you are using 2 workspace runners... If yes then post a new question with screenshot of connections between both workspace runners
