Script errors in Windchill 10.0

[Bob1]

Is anybody else getting a million script errors in Windchill 10.0 when running it inside of Pro/E? Something like the following?

These pop up periodically. Not so often that they prevent us from doing work, but often enough to get annoying. We just implemented Windchill at the beginning of this week. Has anyone else seen this? Thanks...

Not that it helps your problem, but I had trouble in 9.1 in one of the four major browsers with codebase/netmarkets/javascript/components/multivalueinputcomponents.js

OOTB "function populateDefaultValues(elem, defaultValueVar) {" threw a similar error with the following lines:

if((componentType.indexOf('select') == 0)) {

elem.childNodes[i].selectedIndex = defaultValueElement.childNodes[i].selectedIndex;

}

else if((componentType.indexOf('text') == 0)) {

elem.childNodes[i].value = defaultValueElement.childNodes[i].value;

}

I changed it to this:

if((componentType.indexOf('select') == 0)) {

try {

elem.childNodes[i].selectedIndex = defaultValueElement.childNodes[i].selectedIndex;

} catch(anError) {

elem.childNodes[i].selectedIndex = 0;

}

}

else if((componentType.indexOf('text') == 0)) {

try {

elem.childNodes[i].value = defaultValueElement.childNodes[i].value;

} catch(anError) {

elem.childNodes[i].value = "";

}

}

Yup, this and a bunch of SOAP errors. REALLY slows down our users, if not preventing them from doing anything. Sux.

hello

i have exactly the same problem with my embedded browser and it really is annoying. it's better you use Mozilla firefox as embedded browser. however i think this is not the solution for this problem. using firefox is causing other (less annoying) problems. There has to be another way to fix the problem...

I have no idea what's behind these issues.

That said, which 10.0 is this? If it's not the latest available MOR (currently M030), then you're just asking to suffer from known issues that have already been fixed.

[Bob1]

For the record, I'm using M020. Does M030 fix this problem?

[jessh]

As I said, I have no idea what's behind these particular issues.

You're only 1 MOR behind the latest and thus missing fixes to fewer known issues than if you were on M010, for instance. I know M030 contains lots of important fixes, but I really have no idea if this is one of them.

Hey Robert,

Did you ever find a fix for this issue? I still have these popping up all the time. We are on Windchill 10.0 M020 and using CEPRO5.

Thanks,

Buddy

[Bob1 · Accepted solution]

Yes, we did find the answer. We upgraded to M030 and that did the trick.

Actually, a few months after that, the script errors started popping up again right when we launched Pro/E. And digging around, we determined that it was now because we had ptc.com as the default home page for the embedded browser within WF5, and PTC made some change to their webpage. So we changed the WF homepage to our company's intranet page, and that solved the problem again.

So I think the only way for you to get rid of your script errors is to change to M030...

Hey Robert,

Yeah I just got through upgrading to WC 10.1 M030. I have not seen any since the upgrade so I guess problem solved. Thanks for the feedback.
