Question

AttributeFilter is stopping all features in BATCH mode but works well in Workbench. What could be a reason for this ...

I run features through an AttributeFilter Transformer in order to split the stream for specific manipulations downstream. If I test this in Workbench everything works as expected. If I call the workspace in BATCH from a DOS script all features end at the AttributeFilter (identical data).

In FME Log of the BATCH run I see lines like

AttributeFilter_9 AX31001 Transformer Output Nuker (TeeFactory): Cloned 818 input feature(s) into 0 output feature(s)

AttributeFilter_9 SD41000 Transformer Output Nuker (TeeFactory): Cloned 1154 input feature(s) into 0 output feature(s)

 

What is going on here ? Why are the features not passed ... very,very confused 👿 😮

FME 2021.0 up to 2021.1.3 all the same

It seems a VariableRetriever somewhere downstream is causing this weird behaviour.

I disabled and bypassed it and everything works as expected.
