Hello Mr. Professor,

I have seen the image with the error you are receiving :

Import_error.jpg

Please create a Model Tag named AndroidApp in the Applications Vocabulary.

To do this search for the Applications Vocabulary in the SearchSpotlight, open it in edit mode and then click add manage terms:

Add a new term called AndroidApp. This should fix the error you are seeing when importing the file. Please import again and let me know if the problem was fixed.

There is indeed a mismatch between the name of the file in the pdf instructions and the actual xml file in the archive. Thank you for pointing that out. We will have it updated. But the xml document to import is the correct one.

Thank you,

Veronica

Hello Veronica

Yes, this helps, I got the MashUp running, but I had to follow the procedure to create two missing tags.

However I don't succeed to send data from my mobile. I wonder if the IP-address of the application is the same as in the instructions. 054.165.197.172 which is the value I get when I enter: ping thingworx-academic-staff.ptcmscloud.com or is my application not the same?  Thank you.

Hello Georg,

You need to ping your academic instance :

dtudk.cloud.thingworx.com.


Let me know if you run into other connectivity problems after you update the instance IP.


Thank you,


Veronica
