Can't upload burst configuration files to PDM Link

[stewmac92]

I am currently starting a Arbortext pilot with our current PDMlink installation. We are running PDM Link 9.1 M060 and Arbortext 6.0 M040. It is a straight up installation and I am trying to upload default burst configuration files to a Library in PDM Link.

In Arbortext I can do the save as server object operation with no errors but the atidefaults.bcf never shows up in the library. I am able uploadsmaple dynamic docs no problem. PTC tech support is working on it but I just wondered if anyone else has encounted similar behaviour.

Hi Stewart--



I think by default the atidefaults.bcf file doesn't appear in normal
folder listings because it is a configuration file. I ran into this
issue before, but I was able to locate the file by using the Search
feature in the Object Browser dialog in Arbortext. Open the browser
(Object->Browse...), select Search, and search for atidefaults.bcf.
Hopefully it will appear there, and then you can check it out, edit it,
or do whatever else you need to with it.

Clay,

Thanks for the feedback. It did not work but I will bet that would have been the next hurdle.

Hi Stew--



Another thing you can try is to connect to the repository in Arbortext,
and on the command line type:
