100 % new to FME and FME Academy. As a new user I have started my first trail, Integrate Data with the FME Platform. The third Module, Transform Data, has the student connect to a postGIS database, called fmedata at: I have tried this as documented, but get no response. A ping to this returns: Pinging ec2-54-214-172-21.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com [54.214.172.21] with 32 bytes of data:

Request timed out.

 

Is the database available?

 

Hi @dwinvegas​ 

 

I created this connection without error here in my note.

 

Connection 

Please, could you check it todat in your FME?

 

Thanks in Advance,

Danilo

This still does not work for me. I am using FME Workbench 2021.2

FME(R) 2021.2.2.0 (20220106 - Build 21806 - WIN64) 

 

The instructions of the exercise, Quickly Create a Conversion Workflow

(https://safe.my.trailhead.com/content/safe/modules/transform-data/quickly-create-a-conversion-workflow?trail_id=integrate-data-with-the-fme-platform) , are to generate a workspace using Generate Workspace and a postGIS reader.

 

I have tried to replicate your solution using a postgresql reader with the same or similar result. Perhaps my IT security group is stopping this connection?

Good Morning, I have tried to do just as you show. I had another failure. I replied in the forum with full details and my error log. I suspect that my IT security group has some policy that is blocking the connection. Thanks Dave

It's very strange. Mayb we can do a meeting online to try to see the error.

When I encountered the error on my system last year, a reboot fixed it. Please try rebooting your system and see if that resolves the issue. If not, please let me know if you are using a VPN.

Hello, am also experiencing the same problem not being able to connect to postgis.x.x.x etc

Check if you are using a VPN, and try rebooting your machine. I've found that some VPNs can cause an issue, and disconnecting and/or rebooting my machine resolved the issue.
