How can I set the log level when running FME Desktop from the command line with a command file?

When I run a workspace from FME Desktop the Log Message Filter setting in FME Options/Translation is respected. But it's ignored when I run fme.exe from the command line and pass a Command file. Is there a parameter I can set on the command line or in the command file? I just want Errors and Warnings.

Epoch time is out if range

I am using FME 2018.1 32-bit and while reading an .accdb file, I am encountering this error "WARN |Microsoft Access Reader: The epoch time is out of range. Please ensure it is specified in seconds, and not in milliseconds or microseconds". Translation stops after this with a Fatal Error message. There are more than 2.5 million records in the table i am accessing. If I give a where condition an extract 100 odd records, it does execute. When i run the same Workbench in FME 2017.0 32-bit without any WHERE condition, it executes successfully. Any info on how can i troubleshoot this error ?

AttributeRangeMapper Lookup table from excel

Hi all,I have in an excel sheet something like:I would like to determine the score according to my attribute value. So for example I hav an attribute with value 10 the score would be 1,5. The AttribueValueMapper could do this I know, but I would like to point to the excel so I can 'manipulate' the scores in excel and not in FME workbench. Is there a way to achieve this? Greetings,Arno

Use wildcard within a test clause

Hello, I would like to use a wildcard within a conditonal statement. But I don't know if this is possible.  For example, I have the following records:MeldingFor object(s) 001, 002 the date dd-mm-yyyy is later than de original date dd-mm-yyyy. For object(s) 001 the date dd-mm-yyyy is later than de original date dd-mm-yyyy. For object(s) 002, 004 the date dd-mm-yyyy is later than de original date dd-mm-yyyy. I would like to use a conditional statement that gives me recors 1 and 3. So in this case it will become: Instead, I would like to use a wildcard, so that I only need one test clause. Because in my dataset a lot more combinations are possible. Is it possible to use a wildcard so that the test clause can become like this? (I know that % doesn't work, but I use it here to give an idea what I would like to accomplish).  Thanks in advance,Eva

Why is the Visual Preview not showing data from selected Inspector?

Hello,I'm wondering about data showing in the Visual Preview.  Below an example. Two flows of data going to two Inspectors. When I select the SRC_RAW Inspector the Visual Preview shows the SRC_NORMALIZED data. I will have to use the drop down menu in the Visual Preview to retrieve the SRC_RAW data.  That has annoyed me for quite some time now - why can't I just select the Inspector and see the proper data straight away?      Cheers, Ed

CityGML: XLinks for referencing BoundarySurfaces onto Solid geometry.

Hello everyone, I need urgent help with my workspace for converting Sketchup to Citygml. Some posts among the forum say that FME wouldn't support the creation of XLinks. Therefore I created my workbench according to this old "How to write Citygml in FME"-Tutorial and used gml_id and gml_parent_id to express the part-whole-relationships. Now I found that if I use the Citygml_feature_types.xml file within the program folder to import the Writer Type, the autocomplete function provides a list attribute called citygml_bounded_by{}.xlink_href. I tried it out and indeed it created XLinks for the gml_ids I gave to it, but how can I manage to create a Solid with only XLinks referencing the BoundarySurfaces? With my current workspace it creates the geometries for the BoundarySurfaces twice + XLinks once.  I hope you guys can help me -- many thanks in advance. I can also provide sample files to clearify my problem. Kind regards, Philip

FME Server 2020 - Automations, Schedules and Database Connections

Hi team,I was wondering if there was a timeframe to resolve: FMESERVER-14602?I have a number of large number of work spaces which use the Database Connection, whilst this works with Schedules I can work around using that, but would prefer to use Automations as the tags and search functionality is a lot easier to use. Also, are Automations primed to take over from Schedules in the future (i.e. if we're building something new, should we be looking to build workspaces within that space?)
