How split certain shapes with arcs into lines and arcs respectively

Hello everyone,This question has been asked before, but for some reason using the following transformers mentioned in the following post  (Geometrypartextractor > GeometryFilter > Chopper) didn't help me to split certain shapes into lines and arcs respectively. The situation is as follows for me: I read a dgn file (thus a CAD format) in FME in which I have exploded cells. Then I do some transforming on the data in fme before writing to a table in a database. The final step is that I use GeoServer to look on the table i which I have created in order to create a WMS. However in Geoserver, I get the following error: “ORA-13346: the coordinates defining an arc are collinear.".In my dgn, I have the following kind of shapes and I think these shapes are the causes of this error. So, I am now trying to split  specifically those shapes with arcs and lines into separate lines and arcs. Unfortunately, that didn't work for me yet. I hope someone can nudge me in the right direction. As you ca

FME 2024.1 SharePoint Reader

I have a workspace created in 2023.2 that reads an Excel workbook from a SharePoint library. It is working perfectly.I have upgraded to 2024.1 and the reader no longer works as expected. If I use the 2024 Data Inspector I can connect to the workbook and see the data. The FeatureReader obtains the schema and the number of records in each sheet and gives a “Translation was SUCCESSFUL” in the log. The issue happens after that - I get some sort of (possibly) Python related error. Log file of messages after the successful log entry is attached.I have tried changing the Python version but it didn’t make any difference. Has anyone had the same issue or any ideas what I could try to get it working again.

3D mode not supported on this platform.

One of my teammembers suffered a hardware crash recently. He got a replacement laptop from IT but it’s performance is terrible. When opening the Inspector, 3D mode returns next image:It is a Lenovo Thinkpad P15 with an i7, 64GB ram and an NVIDEA RTX A2000 GPU. Windows 11.My machine is almost the same spec and works flawless. Windows 10.I know this question is not really FME related but what would be logical things to check / try to get it running the inspector in 3D?What we did was install the latest videocard driver, but this did not change anything. Our IT is only staffed to solve Office365 problems, no help from there.

Stopping the current automation automatically - authentication

We currently have a process where an automation is stopped by any upstream failure triggering a workspace which contains a httpcaller with a call to the fme rest api to stop the automation. The request is configured to use $(FME_SERVER_WEB_URL) and an the Automation General Attribute/Key AutomationID to construct the request for the api so in this way it is generic. I’m wondering if there’s any way to use the user running the automation as authentication for the http request?

Error Handling in FME - Retry running workspace

Hi Team,I am new to FME and would appreciate if you could help me by giving some tips on Error handling in FME, Below is my scenario,My FME application reads the data from Database and writes to arcGIS Feature layer. Application overwrites the data to feature layer everytime it runs.If application fails for some reason, is there any transformer (or any other method) to retry running the workspace again or add some kind of Try/Catch mechanism?Below could be possible error scenarios in my application,    1) Error connecting to Database    2) Error occurred during transformation    3) Error occured writing to arcGIS Online    Thank you in advance,Regards,Syed

Python FMEObjects Missing DLL files

Hi - I am hoping someone can help.Apologies in advance for the long message.I am using FME Workbench 2022.2.8.I am trying to set up a workspace that has three readers (using a SQL database that retrieves data from three separate tables) connected to a PythonCaller and then a feature writer (connected to the Python caller) that writes the data back into a SQL database.I need all the readers to have finished before the PythonCaller is executed as it uses all of them in the script.I initially tried to run this using the built in Translator Python3.9+ but every time I did It said no module named pandas.I attempted to configure my own python.exe that I have as part of anaconda navigator (2024.10.1).I created an environment called fme_env and set the Python version to 3.9.I was able to successfully set up all this, but I encountered the no module called FMEObjects error.I went into my FME installation path and there was a folder called fmeobjects and inside that there were several version bu

Bug in FME ? - "SQL to run after write" triggered even after a Terminator is activated

I would assume (dangerous in this case), that a Terminator would halt processing completely.I have a workspace, that imports from a WFS. It errs because the provider made a breaking change by removing a column in the read dataset. This issues a rejected feature, which triggers a Terminator.But even then, the postprocess action of my SQL writer is triggered.Why does this happen ?If a terminator is called, it indicates that the workspace has failed. And then triggering postprocessing is a dangerous action, as this usually requires the writing to have been completed without errors.Is this not a bug ?Using FME 2022.2.6 on FME Server/Flow.Cheers

issue - Arcsde Writer (Row Match)

Hello ,I need a help I successfully updated a point geometry in the ArcSDE writer within a specific version. I encountered an issue.When I select "Update Mode" and set "Row selection - Columns " to ObjectID, I get an error translation  running  . But if I leave "Row seletion - Columns" empty, the translation runs successfully. The "Row selection - Columns " field turns red when left empty, and I’m unable to click "OK." To work around this, I temporarily set "Row Selection - Columns" to ObjectID, click "OK," and then use a Remover transformer before the writer to remove ObjectID—and when I run the workspace ,it  works great and translation is successfully . But ’m unclear on how FME identifies the correct point to modify it ,how to resolve my issue ? Update Spatial columns : Should be yes or no ?FME version: 2021, 64-bit.Thanks in advance

How to close open volumes after a clipping transformation in Workbench 2022?

I used Workbench 2022 to clip buildings (composite surfaces) onto an area with the clipper transformer. The buildings at the clipper boundary however are open geometries (refer to screenshot). How can I insert closure surfaces to each boundary building to create closed volumes?I tried to coerce the composite surfaces to a solid and coerce them back to surfaces after the clipping, but the method is not reliable, because most of the solids become faulty. Is there another solution? Best regardsAlex

JSONFragmenter "Prefix New Attribute" not working. Bug or my fault?

Title says it all, Basically I have a workflow:Adding a prefix to the new attribute results in the new attribute not to have any values.Running with prefix:Running without prefix:  Also if I add a prefix, for example _, and have a new field I wish to extract, i.e. “ID” which should result in a new column “_ID” with values, it instead replaces the original id field with the new values, totally ignoring the requested “_” prefix. Workaround is to rename the original values with a prefix before extracting second set of values from nested json.

I’m also using mapnikrasteriser to create a map and export a tiff image however the new records have no geometry defined so won't show up on my map.  What would be the best option to calculate geometry for those new records?

How to work around an ssl-verification error when using the ESRI Portal reader

How do I handle possible errors when writing multiple feature types with post data processing

I’ve alluded to my question on a few other posts about FeatureWriters:When FeatureWriter fails there is no output | CommunityAdd a Rejected port to FeatureWriter | CommunityBut figured I’d ask a more directed question in its own posting. I’m in a situation where I want to do some post-processing after writing data to each of my 40 feature types. I have a FeatureWriter for each feature type, in an attempt to catch and do no post-processing for feature types that fail, but continue with post-processing on feature types that write successfully. I’ve come to realize that any FeatureWriter that fails, stops the entire workspace. Setting “Rejected Feature Handling” to “Continue Translation” doesn’t apply to a failed FeatureWriter. The “Rejected port” link above is suggesting adding such a port to the FeatureWriter, which would solve my predicament, at least as I understand it, but it’s not implemented as of FME 2024.1.1, and I don’t know if there are plans to do so. I’ve also tested out sett
