Problem using arcpy module in FME 2013

Hello,

 

 

I started using FME 2013 a couple of weeks ago and I am having problems in importing arcpy module in a startup python script.

 

Every time I try to run the process I get this message:

 

 

"Python Exception <ImportError>: No module named arcpy"

 

 

I checked the following article in FMEpedia and set the Path Environment Varible but the problem continues.

 

On the other hand, I don't belive that I am having the second problem described in the article since I don't get the error dialog box.

 

 

http://fmepedia.safe.com/articles/Samples_and_Demos/Using-a-Python-Startup-Shutdown-Script-to-Perform-Geoprocessing-with-Arcpy

 

 

Anyone have an idea of what could be happening?

 

 

Thanks,

 

Gabriel

I figure it out the way to deal with this. I had to use a Custom Python Interpreter in the Runtime options.

 

ArcGIS 10 uses Python 2.6 and that seemed to be the problem.

 

Now the script is working fine.
