Solved: Thingwatcher microserver training error

Hi,

I have a problem with the Training .jar installation.

I followed this:

I have this error:

ANY SUGGESTION?? THANKS!!

PS: The Result part works fine:

Hi Maurizio

Glad you made it work but you should try with the empty value. It would work too and much easier to put in place.

You would only set an actual URL if you wanted to train with a dataset already existing in ThingWorx Analytics Server.

For dataset strictly coming through ThingWatcher/anomaly detection, simply leave those properties to an empty value.

Kind regards

Christophe

Hi Maurizio

the microservices.properties file needs some additional properties.

Check https://support.ptc.com/appserver/cs/view/solution.jsp?n=CS264852 for details.

Kind regards

Christophe

mvolanti · ‎Jul 03, 2017

...ok and now what I have to put here ??

dataset.webservices.url= ??
dataset.app.id= ??
dataset.app.key= ??

Thanks

cmorfin · ‎Jul 04, 2017

Hi Maurizio

There is no value to add, simply add the properties in the file with an empty value like below:

dataset.webservices.url=
dataset.app.id=

dataset.app.key=

I have updated the article to clarify this point.

Kind regards

Christophe

I tried many url and I found the solution!!!!!!

This is my microservices.properties:

results.destination.uri=results://localhost:8096/results/models

file.storage.path=C:\Users\MyUSERS\Desktop\AnalyticsThingWatcher\ThingWorx-Analytics-ThingWatcher\components\Microservices-JAR\Training

dataset.webservices.url=dataset://localhost:8090/dataset

dataset.app.id=S3Initializer (here I think that works with anything)

dataset.app.key=1234 (here I think that works with anything)

Ok I checked it and the microservers result and training started poperly.

I tried to start an anomaly detection from simulated device by kepserverEX in the new composer, but gave me initializaztion Failed.

I notice this error in training/Healthcheck: (localhost:8091)

"model-destination" : {

"healthy" : false,

"message" : "Could not establish connectivity to: results://localhost:8096/results/models"

},

any suggestion?

cmorfin · ‎Jul 04, 2017

Hi Maurizio

Would be good to open a new thread for a new error .. that would make the answers more easily searchable for future people having the same issue.

Regarding this error, do you run the micro services on the same machine as ThingWorx or a different one ?

I would think they are on a different one, but in any case could you replace the occurrences of localhost in microservices.properties with the ip address of the machine on which the micro services run.

then restart the microservices and ThingWorx and try again

Thanks

Christophe

ok thanks,
