RE: [fme] Command Line Execution

Hi Bryan,

 

I think build 615 is installed by Autodesk Map (I can’t remember which version).  It’s actually being kept in the Autodesk Map directory, which ends up being before FME directories in the PATH.  You can put FME in the path before Autodesk, and then it should work.  Do not delete the Autodesk Map FME files—I tried this once and it made a mess of the Autodesk Map installation.

 

Regards,

Bryan,

 

If you have more than one FME installed (and you must have build 615 somewhere for it to be running) then it is quite risky to call FME from the command line just using 'fme.exe' - I think default behaviour is to call the first in the PATH which will be the first you installed. Check with echo %PATH% to see where build 615 is being run from.

 

I used to ensure I called the correct build of FME by setting FME_HOME, for example...

 

set FME_HOME=C:\Program Files\FME Suite Beta 1471vol
set PATH=%FME_HOME%;%PATH%
workbench

 

...though nowadays I just edit the path to remove old builds.

 

If you set FME_HOME then its important to have it the same place as you are running FME from (eg if you ran the build 615 executable but pointed FME_HOME to your 1621 build then you'd get some quite unpredictable results).

Subject: [fme] Command Line Execution

Hi Group,

 

I am having some issues trying to execute FME from the command line prompt.

Here is the error.

 

when running this line:

C:\>fme.exe Step_2_ResidenceDataBaseProcessing_load_2_SDE.fmw

 

This is the error I receive:

-------------------------

Feature Manipulation Engine Version 2002 SR-1 Release Candidate (20020409 - Build 615)

 

Dynamic writer not found -- no Writer named `MULTI_WRITER' is available in this FME version

Program Terminating

 

Translation FAILED.

-------------------------

 

This seems odd to me since I have the FME 2005 (20050221 - Build 1621) install, along side the stable release.

All other versions have be removed.  Is something hanging around in my registries?  Am I executing the command line incorrectly?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Bryan
