By accident my local (bad idea, I know) WRC workspace was killed by an update procedure of windows. C:/user was totally erased.This workspace contained the personal configuration and several ReqIF-exchange projects. Is there a chance to map RV&S-IDs and the "old" identifiers in a new replication-DB?Export use case.we still have the RV&S documents and the formerly exported data ReqIF-files (with the original ReqIF-identifiers)Import use case:we have the formerly imported ReqIF-files and the corresponding imported RV&S documentsProbably the same already happened to others. Does anybody have a workaround, skripts or similar to restore the deleted former database? This would be very appreciated because lots of ReqIF exchange is depending on this. 

Hi everyone,   I'm currently supporting a Windchill RV&S instance (we're using 12.5.0.0 currently) for my company, and I'm having a bit of a problem. Our security team has pointed out that every time Windchill RV&S connects to a database, it exposes the ldap.credential password by sending it as clear text.    I've tried to find any documentation on solving this issue, but for the most part I could only find solutions to protect the password on the server, and not when Windchill RV&S is communicating with the database.   Is there another way to secure the database password where it then doesn't send the database password as clear text, maybe something along the lines of a Kerberos, SAML, Oauth, or OIDC method?  Has there been a recent update that solved this issue?   Thank you for your help with this in advance!  

When importing DOORS data using DOORS bridge while mapping fields - what DOORS field gets mapped to Summary. Summary is a text field in CodeBeamer - even if I pick any "text" field in menu, Summary is not available in the dropdown. So the Summary field copies from the description wiki field and includes the wiki tags as plain text. Any suggestions?

Hi. I am using the com.mks.api Java library to get data from Windchill. But even when I try to run the command with windows command line, it takes minutes to get response from a simple command excecution. I tried the viewissue and issues commands. Also, I tried to use small Data from Windchill to rule out the too-big-data-problem. Also, I tried to use the method  executeWithInterim(cmd, false)   instead of execute(), it does not help.I also tried to use the same session for multiple commands. I do get an error but not sure whether it has something to do with slow response:   Error occurred when running command: null com.mks.api.response.CommandAlreadyRunningException at com.mks.connect.CmdRunnerCreatorImpl.release(CmdRunnerCreatorImpl.java:143) at com.mks.connect.UserApplicationSessionImpl.release(UserApplicationSessionImpl.java:494) at com.mks.connect.UserApplicationSessionImpl.release(UserApplicationSessionImpl.java:475)

Hello Community, We have 3 servers, Dev, QA & Production in Winchill RV&S and the client preferences are by default set to production environment. If a user selects save the environment as default, there are no options in RV&S to switch to a different server. Can somebody help to understand if there is any other way?     

Dear Community,We are looking for an option to extract the data out of PTC Integrity 10.8 and store into a validated archive location (or tool) as per compliance requirements.In our company we are using PTC Integrity 10.8 for Change Management purposes and will need to migrate the data out as we moved to another solution to document our Change Controls.Note about product: Windchill RV&S (formerly Integrity Lifecycle Manager)/ Release 10.8 We would need to extract the Change Control records, their history, attachments and approvals. Currently we are in Sustained Support mode and cannot get any assistance from PTC beside going through documentation, KB or Community.Hope that someone has experience with similar activity or can at least suggest a starting point to investigate our options further. Some possibilities that we have on our mind:- export record by record through UI using a bot- using CLI to export record details, history, attachments, approvals- integrate

Hi, I tried to create a codebeamer virtual environment according to the course guide page 14 in codebeamer technical essential course, but no templates showed up...What should I do?    

I have applied below Guard condition between the state transition "Accepted" to "Implement" for the reference field "Impacted Requirements and Test Cases". 1. The above guard condition is working in such a way that, transition is happening at least one item is in Approved status.2. Requirement is, transition should happen only if all the linked items to the field "Impacted Requirements and Test Cases" in Approved status. Does it possible to apply guard condition as per the Requirement? If so please guide us to apply guard condition as per the requirement.     

I am getting this error since I have restored an Oracle backup.The user/password are correct.I have changed it in the Oracle DB several times with simple password to avoid errors. I can connect through sqlplus and sqldeveloper all the times.Ok, I can be wrong even copy paste user and pass from a txt that works with sqlplus, but the next test is what made me atonished:I have created a new Oracle user with sqldeveloper with system user,Granted ALL permissionsI have set this new user in the config PTC IRS (3.4.0.5)Pushed the button Create tables, without errorTables are created in Oracle in the correct userSaved the configBut, when I am going to create a roundtrip, I get the same error!! ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon deniedAny ideas?? Thanks in advance   

Hi,I would like to point out and discuss a problem that we have with RV&S:The support period of 2 years is too short. Explanation:Normally, you do not want to install the first released version, but wait for a first patch to remove the biggest problems. This shrinks the 2 years of support to 18..20 months. Additionally, a new release has new system requirements.So we do not only have to update RV&S itself, but eventually also the server OS, the database, the database OS, the clients OS (and the according licenses).This makes every new release a major IT task with regard to time AND cost. We as a medium-sized company have problems to manage these 2 year update periods.What do you think?

Does anyone know about an integration between CodeBeamer and MethodPark Stages? I see the CodeBeamer logo on the MethodPark Stages webpages. But I cannot find any information or whether an integration exists. Features | Method Park by UL

Hi All,  I'm not sure if its the documentation or me but I'm lost with trying to get setup Add Traces in windchill to codebeamer.  In windchill I can select Add traces and it authenticates and I can select codebeamer from the dropdown list but after that I get nothing. (see screen grab) I have tried to understand what the help files are saying with regards to Configuring the Windchill DPT Extension but I get lost.  When I try to run the validation flow service its asking for inputs but again it doesent make sence.  Any help or working examples will be greatly appreciated. Regards, Bryan                

Hello, The "im issues" command with queryDefinition (producing a user-defined query or a quick query) works in these two cases:WEB URL: http://server/im/issues?queryDefinition=%28field%5BID%5D=448471%29 CLI: im issues --queryDefinition=(field[ID]=448471) But not in the GUI URL case (error MKS154475 Incorrect URL format is generated):integrity://server/im/issues?queryDefinition=%28field%5BID%5D=448471%29 I saw here that may be double encoding is required, so I tried this:integrity://server/im/issues?queryDefinition=%2528field%255BID%255D=448471%2529but it still generates error MKS154475 Incorrect URL format.Appreciating your support. Mohamed

Hi all,  as a System Architect I am looking for a way to define the attribute fields that trigger a suspect OSLC link between Polarion and PTC Modeler. When referencing requirements from Polarion, there are some fields in Polarion that are not relevant in regards to impact analysis. When they change in Polarion, this should not lead to a suspect element in PTC Modeler. I would be happy to only use the relevant fields for suspecting.  Is there a way to configure those fields? Thanks, David

In my opening blog post, I asked for feedback on what content MKS Customer Community users would like to see migrated to to Planet PTC. Matt Giltaji had asked for a posting of the CSV Import tool. After some digging, I believe I've found the files Matt had referred to. I have attached them to this post.
