I am unable to see any ArcGIS Pro python interpreters available in Options>Translation. I have Pro 2.6.0 installed and FME Desktop 2019.2.3.2.

We get the following errors: 2020-10-29 17:09:30 | Python Exception <ImportError>: No module named fmeobjects2020-10-29 17:09:30 | Failed to import `fmesite' During installation i did not choose to install python2.7 because arcgis desktop 10.4.1 is already installed on the server. Also i encountered never issues with python before during previous upgrades (2018,2019). I already tried to run a repair but i can't select the option to install python2.7 during this process.I found this:FME Server 2018.1 and later<FMEServerDir>Server/fme/fme.exe APPLY_SETTINGS SYSTEM "Python/Use Custom Python <32|64>" true<FMEServerDir>Server/fme/fme.exe APPLY_SETTINGS SYSTEM "Python/Python Interpreter <32|64>" c:/<path_to_dll>/python27.dll<FMEServerDir>Server/fme/fme.exe APPLY_SETTINGS SYSTEM "Python/Custom Python Home <32|64>" c:/<path_to_python_home> In this case can i point to C:\\apps\\FMEServer\\Server\\fme\\fm

HiI'm trying the tutorial / article about "How to create a WMS Service using FME Server". I've published the first workbench (GetCapabilities), but I'm having some problems with the last one (GetPNG). I've modified the FME_SERVER_REQUEST_URI to match the result from my FME Server.  When I try to run the GetPNG workbench, the FeatureReader only outputs Schema and Initiator, and not the Generic-port which are used later in the workspace. I've tried reading from ESRI Geodatabase (.sde) and from the corresponing Azure-database (Microsoft Azure SQL Database Spatial). If I try to manually select the feature types to read, I can select the ones that I've included in my URL and which is used in GetCapabilities. How do I get the generic-port to work?

I use the SQL executor to join a lot of PostGreSQL and PostGis tabels. One of these tables contain a "geom" column with points and line objects. At the end of the SQL statement i want to select only the lines. Can anyone specify which statement to use to select only linestrings? 

Hello, I am trying to create a reader to process AGS 4 data but am struggling with it a bit.For those who haven't encountered the data before, I have included an example below.When opened as a text file, the data is all in one column. It is grouped into sections that define a subsection of the overall dataset. These sections always start with the "GROUP" header and end with a empty line before the next group header. Fortunately, the groups always follow the same pattern: "GROUP" = Name of the group"HEADING" = The different data headers (These would be the column headers if brought into excel)"UNIT"= The Unit of the header"TYPE" = The Data type"DATA" = The actual data for each header. "GROUP","GCHM""HEADING","LOCA_ID","SAMP_TOP","SAMP_REF","SAMP_TYPE","SAMP_ID","SPEC_REF","SPEC_DPTH","GCHM_CODE","GCHM_METH&quot

Is there a way within in AttributeValidator Parameters -> Validation Rule -> Rule Configuration -> NOT EQUAL a value? 

Lets say I have locations of point/polygon features along a line and I would like to count the number of points along the line using a moving window. For instance I'd like to slide along the line using a window of 100 feet. As I move along the line, I want a count the number of points within the 100 feet window until I reach the end.Once the counts is done, I'd like to segment the line as well, based on the total counts within the 100 feet window. Any ideas and help on this will be greatly appreciated.

This question is similar to one already asked below, but I couldn't crack the answer: https://community.safe.com/s/question/0D54Q000080hAQuSAM/css-selcetors-in-html-extractor?t=1603847778190 I would like to take the table as displayed in the xlsx example (mock up of a HTML table on a webpage), and force the values into attributes on a row per ID basis, to be able to construct an easy to use list of IDs with their associated attributes.The tables (there are many across different URLs) are structured as in the 'HTML Table code example' (one table per ID) and I am having trouble trying to isolate the values of the associated attributes (in bold in the xlsx table example). The attribute names are always the same and in the same order, but not necessarily on the same row numbers everytime. I tried isolating by using the _element_index (using HTML Extractor and ListExploder) but these are not consistent across all tables (as attrbutes such as location can have multiple values),

Greetings, I'm pulling from a datasource that has a column of linestrings (example below) and i just need to convert this to line geometry in order to derive a polyline shapefile. which transformer(s) can i use? Thanks "Geometry": "LINESTRING (-107.726325 39.50062, -107.72632501 39.50062042, -107.72632492 39.50062061, -107.72632458 39.50062097, -107.72632481 39.50062182, -107.72632666 39.50062407)",

Hello there,I am trying to aggregat neighborhood polygones (they need to touch or intersect each other) grouped by their ID with the condition, that the value of a specific attribute from the neighbor polygone needs to be in the range of +-10% of the „motherpolygones" value. In addition, I need to use the „Attributes to Average, Weighted by Area“ attribute accumulation setting from the aggregator. This option isn’t available in the neighborhoodaggregator. Also the "Attributes to Concatenate" option is necessary. In words the Transformer should do this:"If the polygones has the same ID and touches or intersect each other and the value of the attribute AA is in range of +-10% aggregat them. Weight the BB attribute by area and concatenate the attribute CC." Does someone has an idea? best regards,knigge

Hi FME community I would like to fade-out raster image created with WMS and write to a pdf-file. For this I first create my WMS image and then overlay this image with a prepared png-File with the fade-out effect. Within FME everything works fine and the result before the pdf-writer in the Data Inspector is what I expect. But in the pdf-file the fade-out effect is no longer visible (see attached screenshot).  I guess it's a problem of the pdf writer. Does anyone have an idea how I can fix this? Thank you very much and kind regards from Switzerland. Dominik

I have a shapefile with both points and multipoints (not produced by me) which I am reprojecting and then writing to shapefile again. The multipoints don't get written due to the writer expecting only point feature types. I would like to split the multipoints into single points before writing, similar to the PointCloudCoercer when splitting a point cloud to single points. Is there an easy way to do this in FME or should i just give up and fix it in ArcGIS? 

Hello experts,I'm stuck in an installation problem that I'm not able to solve.I need to install a library (i.e. cx_Oracle) for both 2.7 and 3.7 python interpreter.I tried to install both cx_Oracle versions in:C:\\Users\\myself\\Documents\\FME\\Plugins\\Python\\python37 andC:\\Users\\myself\\Documents\\FME\\Plugins\\Python\\python27Trying to configure both interpreter in FME, it seems FME 2020 is not able to find the library. Error: Python Exception <ImportError>: No module named cx_Oracle.So I tried to copy the python37 content into C:\\Program Files\\FME2020\\python\\python37 folder.Now the error is "Python Exception <ImportError>: Module use of python27.dll conflicts with this version of Python".Any idea on how to properly configure where to install libraries and let FME looking for the correct version?ThanksRoberto

What are the versions for the third party components used in FME Server? Database Server? Application Server?

Hello,     Our AV policy is set so that any unknown executable file is blocked unless it is trusted. There are two options for a file to get into this state:   1) The file is signed by a recognized Certification Authority  2) It has been analyzed by the AV itself (and it has to be executed prior to analysis)     This means that after every update we have to experience continuous blocks -as every dll is analyzed independently- until the whole program becomes functional.     As a good security practice that any mature software company should perform, could you please sign your code?    Thank you in advanced,

Hi FME Community, I've been sent a spreadsheet with a series of rent entries. The name of the property, the dates and rent are the fields which are important. For each entry, which is a single line per rent payment, there may be an increase in the amount. This can be after 1 line, or 20. Basically, I need to only keep the entries which show an increase in rent amounts. Trying to find these entries and automate them seemed simple at first - but has stumped me. If anyone has any ideas, I'll be very grateful.Thank you

Hi.In one of my FME-workbenches I'm splitting lines at several points (water lines and devices) by using a PointOnLineOverlayer. After the splitting, I want to create a numbering of the new line segments according to the direction the line has been digitalized. I've tried using a counter with the ID of the lines as the countername, so I get a count based on the ID. But the result is not what I want. The numbering seems random. As you can see from the first example (just a mockup), each line has an ID and you can see where the points are.After I split my lines and calculate a new ID, I get this:The segment IDs are not numbered in the direction of the lines. What I want to achieve is this: Do you have any suggetions?

Hi list.I've built a workspace with a loop looking for information, that I don't know the exact end of. So I loop with a margin, and I save an ID of the last found instance, and check whether I've had too many consecutive fails. If too many fails have been found, I redirect to a Terminator transformer.However, when I ran the workspace, expecting some output to a database, no output was produced.It seems that the Terminator transformer rollback previous database inserts. When I disabled the Terminator, all worked as expected.Is there a way of making a peaceful halt of processing of a workspace, not the "pull-the-plug" kind of behaviour that Terminator seems to perform ?I.e., is there an option to make the Terminator transformer less "Terminator"-like ??Cheers

I have a 10-year-long dataset that needs to be split by year. The complication in my case is that I need each output year to start from December of the preceding year, i.e. the output filter for year 2019 has to be from 01/12/2018 00:00 to 01/01/2020 00:00. I can't seem to get this to work with AttributeRangeFilter. Cheers.

Hi,I have two raster files, DEM_epsg25831_orthoHeights.tif and GEOID_epsg4326.tif, and I have to convert from orthometric heights of raster DEM to ellipsoidal ones. I am using CsmapReprojector [3] with FME Workbench 2019.1 but I have problems with vertical adjustment. I always get this error:CsmapReprojector: Reproject: Could not reproject the geometry of the preceding feature: Program TerminatingTranslation FAILED.   These are the steps that I follow for vertical adjustment: 1) I have converted DEM_epsg25831_orthoHeights.tif into dtm_epsg25831_orto.asc (Esri Ascii GRID), because CsmapReprojector can only reproject raster files in 2D (that is, with Ignore heights and leave them unchanged) [1]. This is the content of dtm_epsg25831_orto.asc (sample data for test),NCOLS          3NROWS          3XLLCENTER    398955.000000000YLLCENTER    4624395.00000000CELLSIZE    5.00000000000000NODATA_VALUE    -9999252.71 252.38 251.94252.97 252.63 252.26253.23 252.89 252.55  2) I also, I have convert

Hello,By default, the location of FME temporary files in the system temporary directory is on some Windows versions defaults to C:\\temp or under the user local temp directory (i.e. C:\\Users\\mark\\AppData\\Local\\Temp). There is a way to change the location of temp files using these methods : https://community.safe.com/s/article/fme-temp-environment-variableThe problem is we need administrator rights to make these manipulations. FME users doesn't have always the administration rights. In my case, setting the location right directly from the WorkBench (in the FME options menu for exemple) would be very helpful : Do you think it can be a good idea? Is there any project to ease the setting of FME Temp files in a future version of FME?Thank a lotRonan Jarno 

Started to build a FME Workspace that would test in-coming email for 2 files attachments with a specific pattern. I'll email reply back if the 2 files are not found, if found then save them to a network UNC location. I've got reading email json -> into 2 ListSearcher (1 for each file) This is where I'm hung up as testing for the 2 specific files (it has 2 files and very specific for each to the 2 files)?
