Removing the FME Server Core Dependency on the FME Server Database
You may need to disable and stop the service of the PostgreSQL database that is included in a default installation of FME Server (known as the "FME Server Database"). A common reason for performing this action is after changing the database provider to a different service. However, shutting down the old FME Server Database also attempts to shut down the FME Server Core, unless this service dependency is removed.
- Remove the Dependency of the FME Server Core on the FME Server Database
- Open a Command Prompt as administrator (Start Menu > Command Prompt > right click and select "Run as administrator").
- Type the following command into the Command Window and press Enter.
- Disable and Stop the FME Server Database
- Open the Windows Services (Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services)
- Open the FME Server Database service.
- In the Properties dialog, change Startup Type to "Disabled."
- Under Service status, click Stop.
- Click Apply.
