I'm working through the data distribution example at http://fmeserver.com/userweb/sharper/simpledd/google-maps.html. I have the sample code set up on my FME Server 2014 and can draw a polygon on the map and get a link to features within that polygon in any of the specified format except one: Shape. When I select Shape the link is to a zip file with an empty "Result" folder in it. Any suggestions?

 

 

Thanks
Hi JimO

 

The issue may come when you pubish your workspace. In the last screen where you select the Data Download Service, click Edit and confirm that there is "Desired Output" writer. In other words a writer which the Data Download Service meant to serve data from.

Okay, that makes sense. I think the problem was that the demo used FILEGDB for data source but I used shape files. When I took those shapefiles and made a FILEGDB, it worked properly. Maybe the demo was expecting FILEGDB?

 

 

Thanks
