Question

FME is giving error while importing data into SmallWorld from shape files.

The error says "SmallworldWriter Error: Object unset does not understand message field()with arguments: :fme_feature_type".

Steps I have followed:-

1- Opening a smallworld image.

2- Making the alternative writable.

3- TICS server was running on 30000 port.

4- Mapped the reader to shape files, the writer configuration was given as local host & 30000 port. But the object & attributes got mapped to the writer directly from reader.

It's easier to export data from smallworld, because the reader identifies the dataset & lists the objects. I am not sure about the the writer though.

I am new to FME, please help me.

SmallWorld writers (the GE version or the SpatialBIZ plugin) are not able to create tables in SmallWorld.

You have to create the Writer and not the featuretypes. Then you have to import the existing featuretypes from the SmallWorld database.

Finally you can connect the Reader (Shape) featuretypes to the SmallWorld featuretypes and run the conversion.

The key is that the tables have to exist in the SmallWorld database!
