Shapefile Writer: Maximum number of open output files reached, caching additional features until end of translation

Hello,

I am splitting 49 Polygons from one shapefile to 49 separate shapefiles (see inputFile and fmw attached).

In the logfile I get a :

Shapefile Writer: Maximum number of open output files reached, caching additional features until end of translation

The translation is successful and neither a warning or an error is outputted (see test-fmw-log.txt attached)

All shapefile concerned by the caching are corrupt and I get a:

Worker 2876 > Shapefile Reader: File size and filesize record in header mismatch. File claims size of '108' bytes but is '112' on disk. Reading as many records as possible, but file may be corrupt

I am working with FME(R) 2019.2.0.0 (20191105 - Build 19801 - WIN64)

I think, these kind of translations never had problem...

Thanks for your support.

Florian

Hi @floriangandor

I'm sorry you're running into this issue. I was able to reproduce the issue using the data you provided in FME 2020.0 and will file a bug report. I will notify you once it has been resolved.

As a workaround, please continue to use the old Esri Shapefile (ESRISHAPE) writer instead of the newer Shapefile (SHAPEFILE) writer.
