Hi, I am just exploring some of the standard dashboard features of FME Server 2021.2.3.0 (20220131 - Build 21812 - WIN64), I have got a couple working without any issues, and now I am unable to get the "DailyAverageQueuedTime.fmw" workspace to run, each time I get a warning: Path Reader: No files found in folder 'C:\ProgramData\Safe Software\FME Server\resources\dashboards\temp' using glob pattern '*.csv' with glob filter 'FILE'. No features will be readI have attached the full log file, has anyone seen this before, or do you know how to resolve? I am not sure what I should be looking for. Cheers

I have used RasterMosaicker to mosaic 4 ECW images into a single ECW image. Prior to mosaicking none of the images had black areas around the edges. After mosaicking my output shows two locations that are black on the edge of the image.  I checked and these black areas have data, various values of 1,0,1; 0, 1, 0; 1, 2, 1; and several other values. Any suggestions on how to remove the black areas? I have tried Clipper and it does not clip the black areas, they remain in the output.

We are on the process to upgrade FME 2015 to 2020. Because all of the security regulations our cybersecuirty team blocking this from happening without getting an answers for the following question, we do appreciate if you can help us with this.What types of applications are being coded and in what languages?What training has been provided or completed in secure application development by the development team?What is the Software Development LifeCycle, and how does security form a part of this?Do the applications take inputs or variables? If yes, how are they sanitised?Are whitelists being used in place of blacklisted characters?Are automated tools used to scan for vulnerabilities, what is the time frame for high and critical vulnerabilities to be remediated?Where will the code repository sit?How are error exceptions handled?What network separation is there from Dev/ QA/ Prod, who reviews the code? 

I have a table of addresses with these values in a single field, example: Main St/Carter Ave. I want to put Main St in a new field named StreetName, and Carter Ave in a new field named IntStreetName. I know there must be a method for parsing the values to the left and right of the "/" separator. How can I do this in FME? I know how to do this in python using split. I am new to FME.

Hello,Is there any info if FME server is affected by new vulnerability CVE-2022-42889 (Apache Commons Text versions 1.5 through 1.9)?

Hello,I know this is weird but somehow I cannot find the Google API key that I got but I do have it stored in the workbench file for years now, in the Geocoder transformer. Any idea how/if I could retrieve the API Key somehow? Many thanks

I have a mix column that contains numbers and letters. in some records the first value or two first values ​​are number and then is a space then comes letter. the space und letter don't appear in all records. if a record contains this space I want to remove the space between number and letter.For example : 2 a -> 2a oder 22 a -> 22a.   

Hi!I have a problem with JSONUpdater and the function "Delete From Array". My case : I have this JSON fileI want to delete the value 79240 in "structure_ids". In JSONUpdate, I can't write the value, it doesn't work.I do write the position of this value. How can I do this dynamically? Is there an IndexOf function on FME?And when I write a position, here 4, in JSONUpdater, it removes 2 values ​​instead of one (79240,79389). Thank you for your help 

Does one get any certification or acknowledgment letter, after finishing the FME training?

Hello,I have several thousand records, each with a date and demographic information. I have set up a workflow using the statistics calculator to get a cumulative sum of each demographic column. Where I am hung up though is grouping these records into weeks, and then doing my cumulative statistics for each week.Any help would be greatly appreciated!

We currently have an Excel macro to copy cell data from an Excel source sheet and paste to another destination sheet. Once pasted, we will position those data in particular columns and apply some lookups.What would be the best approach to mimic such process in FME? Is it feasible to execute all those detailed steps by using FME transformer(s)?

I've attached some screenshots to show what it's doing.It will only reset the hour back to 12 it still honors the exact minute I specify. I did look over the known bugs for 2022.x but was unable to find any mention of this. FME Server 2022.1 Build 22618 - win64

We have digitized some roofs with dormers.Now during the creation process the dormers were digitized into the main roof to avoid gaps. Unfortnatley there were no snapping used.For example:Is there a way in fme to cut these roof polygons from dormers which are inside the main roof (blue line)?

Just found that a workspace I thought was working perfectly is not writing out BLOB attributes. The workspace creates schema attributes and writes out to a geodatabase. Unfortunately, the schema features for BLOB attributes--currently set with native_data_type = blob--are not writing out. So:Can FME even write out Blob attributes in schema features to a geodatabase?If so, what is the native_data_type to use for a BLOB attribute?Is the native_data_type value in the case of a BLOB (or in any case for that matter) case-sensitive?I have not been able to get FME to read BLOB fields from and existing geodatabase, so I don't have a native_data_type value to inspect. My BLOB attributes in the schema features currently have a native_data_type value of "blob" and an fme_data_type of fme_binarybuffer. Any insights? Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello friends. Help solve the problem of replacing the textures of a 3d object. I have an object to convert to gltf, textures of different formats are applied to the object and they need to be brought to the webp format (I understood how to do this part). But I don't understand how to use the Appearance Setter correctly. Any help is welcome.

Hey there,I need to transform a CSV-formatted file containing Geometry assignments into LandXML. Therefor geometry describing/containing clothoids need to be clothoids in the LandXML. They can be at the start, in the middle or at the end of a (line) geometry. I know how to create linear geometry (VertexCreator) and arc geometry (2DArcReplacer). But clothoids? 🤷‍♀️

I have a specific use case wher i need to read many dwg files. an dget several feature types from a specific layout (paperspace). 1 of the featuretypes i need to extract is autocad_insert. If i explode blocks on the reader I lose ALL layout information. specifically i need a closed polyline that is within the block. The insert point of the block is what i am going to have to use to place that polygon. so i will have to calculate the center of the polygon and use that to place it at the insert point of the block. I would be suprised if fme is not capable of deconstructing the block into it's components. i just hope it is a a logicial model. The block I am trying to gain access to is very simple. Just a polyline. nothing else.

A Tester: what could be simpler? I feel silly asking this, but I must. I have two sets of features, both resulting from reads from the same geodatabase (GDB). One set comes from a FeatureReader through the <Schema> port. The second set comes from a PythonCreator that uses fmeobjects/arcpy to create FME features having a few attributes containing schema information but not geometry. The plan is to run the two sets through a FeatureMerger to add the attributes of the second set to the first set. All well and good. Before sending all the features to the FeatureMerger, though, I wanted to remove from each set any features that have "OBJECTID," "SHAPE_AREA," or "SHAPE_LENGTH" values for a particular attribute. So, I send each feature set through its own Tester. The tests in each Tester are the same, except for the attribute name holding the tested value. The test is essentially if UpperCase(@Value(<attribute_name>)) = OBJECTID OR UpperCas

I have a feature class in a file geodatabase with a Raster data type field, whose values I want to write to an SDE feature class with an equivalent Raster field.When I use the GEODATABASE_FILE reader, the raster column is not listed in the resulting feature class. Likewise with the FILEGDB. To make sure I wasn't missing something I tried the GEODATABASE_FILE_RASTER_DATASET and GEODATABASE_FILE_RASTER_CATALOG readers, which, as expected, would not recognize the feature class.When I use the GEODATABASE_SDE writer the raster field is also omitted. Again, trying the raster readers, GEODATABASE_SDE_RASTER_CATALOG and GEODATABASE_SDE_RASTER_DATASET did not recognize the feature class.Does FME handle the ArcGIS geodatabase Raster field type? Using FME Version 2019.0.1.0 Build 19253

Hello, How to remove inner boundaries of polygons?  For example, on the screenshot above, I would like to remove the central part of the selected polygon so that it does not have inner boundary anymore. Thanks!

Hi all,I need to connect to a linked server in my SQL Server. Is there a method of connecting to a Server Object using FME?Alternatively I have a query that collects my data but running it through the SQLCreator doesn't produce any attribution (presumably because FME doesn't natively connect to the data).ThanksNeil

Dear all, I hope the community is fine 🙂 I am using FME Server to run a workspace that has 2 optionals user parameters published. After launching the workspace, everything is ok.Next time I go to run the workspace, the optional parameter is set with the previous value.    The user can click on the "reset" button to clear by himself, but I would like to know if there is a way to automatically clear these optional parameter values in FME Server? Kind regards, Aymeric

Hi all, I'm running into an issue when trying to INSERT & TRUNCATE an existing ArcGIS Portal feature layer via an FME writer. The error message I am receiving can be seen below: ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Writer: Encountered an unexpected error. The error code from the server was '500' and the message was: 'Cannot perform operation. Invalid operation parameters.'. Details: '' I've read through a couple of older posts about this issue and followed the suggested fixes, but these don't seem to help in my case - fixes include checking there isn't a mismatch in schemas, and reducing the 'Feature Per Request' in the writer settings. To see if there was an issue with updating more complex feature layers, I have tested with a simple feature layer and still having the same error message. This polygon feature layer (3x rows, 1x string field) was published from ArcGIS Pro to Portal and can be read into FME with no issue, but the same error oc
