Hi.

I have a workspace, built with 2020.2.5, that utilizes FeatureWriter to build a zipped shape file for attachment to an email.

In FW I'm adding some variables to be propogated along with the datasets, i.e. adding them to "Additional Summary Port Attributes".

 

This works fine in 2020.

When uploading the 2020 workspace to our 2022.2.2 FME server, it still works fine.

I just tried to create a workspace in 2022.2.2 (open+save as), and now the additional variables are all set to blank strings. This is so both on desktop and when uploaded and run on server.

I then did the same test with 2023.0, and the same problem exists, at least on desktop (can't test it on server as my server is 2022).

 

The version of FeatureWriter is 0 in all versions, suggesting that it is the same transformer since forever.

 

Please advise.

Cheers.

I just tried it in 2021.2.6, and it seems to work here too.

Anyone ?

I do not have you versions so I can't try and reproduce. I would submit a case if I were you.
