Hi @anaclos.

 

Per the case notes, there were some conflicting .jars.  After stopping Tomcat, removing the conflicting .jars, and restarting Tomcat, the extension imported successfully.

Hi @anaclos 

 

The correct order of Importing Manufacturing apps is :

1. MED-61284-CD-084_F000_Remote-Access-Extension-1-0-2

2. ThingWorx-Apps-<version>-extension-dependencies
3. ThingWorx-Apps-<version>-extension
 
 

 From the post subject line, I could assume that you are trying to import MED-61227-CD-085_F000_ThingWorx-Apps-8-5-0-extension-bundle.zip; however, unzip the contents of the following file MED-61227-CD-085_F000_ThingWorx-Apps-8-5-0-extension-bundle.zip, and then the extension files must be imported in the following order:

a. ThingWorx-Apps-8-5-0-extension-dependencies
b. ThingWorx-Apps-8-5-0-extension
 
Also you need to download the ThingWorx Remote Access Extension-1-0-2 from ptc support site and import it first.

Please find support document link on Import the ThingWorx Apps Extension

Thanks

Hi @abhkumar_274615: My Thingworx version is 8.5.0. I imported MED-61284-CD-085_SP2_Remote-Access-Extension-1-2-0.zip but I got this error "RemoteAccessExtension:1.2.0 Minimum Thingworx Version [ 8.5.2] requirements are not met because current version is: 8.5.0".

Then I imported version 1.1.0 without errors. I unzipped the file MED-61227-CD-085_F000_ThingWorx-Apps-8-5-0-extension-bundle.zip. But when I validate ThingWorx-Apps-8.5.0-02-extension-dependencies.zip, I got this error: "TWX_Converge_Core_ExtensionPackage:8.5.0 Checking deployed extension JARS conflict(s) detected [package: TWX_Converge_Core_ExtensionPackage]. Check application log for details".

In the log file I attached, there is a jar conflict. I have the extensions listed in the image. Can I delete them and then import or can I have a conflict with what is already installed? Thank's

Hi: To install ThingWorx-Apps-8.5.0-02-extension-dependencies.zip I had to rename four jar files on the Thingworx server, located at /opt/ThingWorxFoundation-8.5.0/ThingworxStorage/extensions/DataExporterExtension/lib/common/

poi-ooxml-3.13.jar

poi-3.13.jar

poi-ooxml-schemas-3.13.jar

xmlbeans-2.6.0.jar

After the change, I had to restart tomcat and then Linux to start Thingworx.
Then I installed ThingWorx-Apps-8.5.0-02-extension.zip with the warnings indicated below, but the installation was completed!!!

"AppHomePage-extension:8.5.0               Extension Package [AppHomePage-extension] is trying to override existing entities: [Role:ModelTagVocabulary] [Relationship:ModelTagVocabulary] [PTC:ModelTagVocabulary]"

 

I don't know if it is the right solution but it can help someone.
