Hi All,

I have a FME workspace published with the Data streaming service of FME Server 2016.

The workspace creates a HTML file for output.

When I run the workspace my browser allows me to download the file (or run it).

I want the HTML contents of the file to replace the FME Server page (or automatically open in a new tab).

What do I need to change to open the HTML file without user interaction?

Thanks for any help,

Erik Jan

Found the issue:

I had two disabled writers that were included in the Data Streaming (by default).

Therefor FME Server expected multiple files as output and defaulted to the download service.

Excluding the writers from the service (Edit service settings) solved the issue.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.  This is still an issue in 2024 and your question/answer got me on the right track.  If a streaming workspace on Flow defaults to download rather than the HTML page that you expect, Edit Services.

This is done at the workspace level, not in Workspace Apps.  On Flow, select the workspace, then Workspace Actions.  Click Edit Services.  You’ll see “Include Writers In Stream.”  Unselect all but the HTML writer.
