Ignore Failed Readers

Workspace Parameters > Translation > Ignore Failed Readers

This setting tells FME whether or not to continue a translation when reading a dataset fails. For example, if the wrong password is entered so that FME cannot read from a database, should the translation continue with any other datasets that FME can read from?

Double-click this parameter to display the dialog. Choose Yes if you have specified more than one reader, and you do not want the translation to stop if one of the readers fails or is missing. The default is No.

Note: If all readers in the workspace fail, FME aborts the translation, regardless of this setting. For more control over which features to read, consider using a FeatureReader transformer.
