Hi,

I am running a workspace on FME Server and I see that most of the columns have unreadable characters in it after running a workspace. I have not seen this before.

imageimageimageIs this because of bad data coming in from the source data file or UTF encoding is an issue, i see duplicate features has been created as well. Any advice to fix this issue would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you!

The unreadable characters could be an encoding issue or bad data. Coincidentally there is a module on the FME Academy that describes a troubleshooting workflow using encoding problems as an example. So that should give you some pointers on how to proceed.

 

For the duplicate features it's impossible to say what's going on without knowing more about your workspace.
