Hello there!

Into FME Server 2017.1 I have some process failing for some reasons and I get the error into the log.

But when I look at the process status, it's Completed. Then, I don't get any notfications alerting me about this.

Shouldn't I receive a Failure message instead?

i could put an Emailer into my workbench, yeah, I know, but I would prefer the FME Server notification.

Into FME Desktop I get the Failure message though.

thanks

I agree this looks like it should be a failure.

To force the ERROR you could add Terminator transformers on the Rejected ports of the critical transformers (in this example the HTTPCaller).

Hi @philippeb, looks like the images you added to your question have gone missing. Would you mind uploading them again? I certainly would have expected your workspace to finish with a Failed status if it finished with an error on FME Server.

Hi Laura, seems there's a lot of issues with missing inline images after the forum upgrade. Are you guys looking into it?

Images have been reuploaded... 2/3 not really important though :P

Images are always working on Chrome though, which I'm using.

It's on FF and IE it seems problematic.

That's a good idea. It works.

Very curious though, I would like to understand why I don't get an error.

So I've done a simple test into a new workbench :

Added a Creator connected to a HTTPCaller (request URL https://googlee.com)

I get an error in Inspector but not in FME Server, I still get the Completed status.

Even with this error...

I attached the FMW to this post.

Do you have the same error on your side?

thanks.

Hi @philippeb,

In your .fmw it looks like you have the Rejected Feature Handling parameter set to 'Continue Translation'. If you want the job to fail if a feature passes through the rejected port you will need to change this to equal 'Terminate Translation'.

Please note it looks like there was an issue with this in 2017.1: https://knowledge.safe.com/questions/65274/rejected-feature-handling-on-fme-serverf.html so you may want to consider upgrading to the latest version of FME Server or using the Terminator as erik_jan suggested.
