Hi

I have recently installed FME Desktop 2017 on Ubuntu 16.04. I have been tasked with switching batch running of FME projects from windows (cmd) to ubuntu (bash) scripts.

On windows you can:

fme <workspacename>.fmw --<myparametername> <parametervalue>

But how to do the same thing in ubuntu?

FME is installed here > /opt/fme-desktop-2017

Thanks,

Mike

Hi @mike_gale ,

to run a file on Ubuntu you would use ./ in the command line. So to run the example you mentioned on Ubuntu you would navigate to /opt/fme-desktop-2017 and run this command:

./fme <workspacename>.fmw --<myparametername> <parametervalue>

For a quick syntax overview just run this:

./fme

Hope this helps!

Hi @GerhardAtSafe

I think that is what you call a full on Brain Fart moment :)

In my defense - I was up all night with a screaming 2 month old :)

Thanks for pointing it out!
