AWS Blu Age Code Transformation for L3 Workshop - Weather Report Not Enabled

This is a known issue with newer versions of the AWS Blu Age transformation engine, particularly version 4.8.0 and later, where the "Only Weather Report" option is enabled by default and sometimes cannot be easily disabled from the Transformation Center interface.

To resolve this issue, you have a few options:

1. Look carefully through the transformation settings or configuration panel for an option to disable "Only Weather Report" or "Weather Report Only". This option might be hidden or named slightly differently in the interface.

2. Consider using an earlier version of the transformation engine, such as version 4.2.0, which doesn't have this default setting and allows for full refactoring outputs. In fact, for the L3 workshop specifically, it's recommended to use version 4.2.0 as the workshop materials are designed for this version. Using version 4.8.0 may lead to compatibility issues since the workshop-provided utility/service WARs/JARs are based on version 4.2.0.

3. If you're using version 4.8.0 and can find the option, make sure to turn off the "Weather reports only" option during the run. When disabled properly, it should show 3 actions and generate all necessary artifacts including the SQLMODEL.json file you're looking for.

Without disabling this option, the transformation will only generate weather reports in XLSX format instead of the full Java/Groovy outputs and associated files needed for the workshop.
