Known Issues between FME 2019.0 and 2019.2
Emailer Fails when International Characters are Used in the Email Password
Problem | When using the Emailer in FME Desktop, if the SMTP authentication email password contains international characters such as äåø, the workspace will fail with the error: 2020-10-23 15:52:48| 1.3| 0.1|WARN |Emailer: <class 'UnicodeEncodeError'>: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 0-2: ordinal not in range(128). This is caused by an unresolved bug in the Python 3 standard library. For more information on this bug see https://bugs.python.org/issue29750https://bugs.python.org/issue29750. This issue was not present in FME 2018 or older because these versions used the Python 2.7 library which has looser text encoding practices. |
Workaround | To resolve this issue, please change your email password to remove these characters. If you are unable to change your password, please downgrade to FME 2018 or older to use Python 2.7. |
Status | Unresolved |
MacOS Catalina
Problem | macOS Catalina may identify downloaded installers as a risk, and prevent opening via double-click |
Workaround |
There are several ways to get around this!
|
Status | We aim to prevent this behaviour through pre-registration of installers via Apple's notary service (likely with FME 2020, but potentially with an earlier 2019.2 release) |
Third Party Application Crashes with some Windows 7 Configurations
Problem | Some users may experience application crashes with combinations of older Windows operating systems (specifically Windows 7) and third party applications such as Photoshop and Civil3D after installation of FME 2019.x. |
Workaround | Upgrade to FME 2019.1.3+. Note prior versions of FME (2018.x) do not exhibit this behaviour either. |
Status | Fixed in 2019.1.3 and available in the 2019.2 beta stream at http://safe.com/downloads |

|
Workaround |
There are a couple of workarounds to resolve this with FME 2019 64-bit: 1. Use ArcGIS Desktop with 64-bit Background Geoprocessing OR 2. To continue using FME with ArcPro, switch the Python Compatibility to “Esri ArcGIS Pro 2.1 to 2.5 Python(3.6)”.

Status |
This issue has been resolved in FME Desktop 2020.0. http://safe.com/downloads |
