I'm really trying.
Coming from this: Re: Thingworx installation can't open PID file ubu... - PTC Community
Where i get thingworx url? How do i check if Thingworx is working? Why there is no installer for thingworx? Which is the correct manual? I followed like 3 different articles
Any help or any tip will be welcomed. Thanks
You're asking quite a few questions at once and they're pretty open-ended, so it's hard to properly answer them all, as I see it, but I'll do my best 🙂
Regarding the "Which is the correct manual" one.
I'd suggest to always start with the official documentation available in Help Center https://www.ptc.com/en/support/help
Here are the links for installing ThingWorx Foundation and Experience Service
https://www.ptc.com/en/support/refdoc/Vuforia_Experience_Service/latest/ESInstallDeploy
Regarding "Why there is no installer for thingworx?"...
There is one, and it has been available for quite a long time, at least starting with 8.5, if I remember correctly.
You still can opt in for doing things manually, the old school way 🙂
Regarding "Where i get thingworx url?"...
The answer will be pretty obvious after one has completed the installation.
Normally / by default it's something like http(s)://<hostname>/Thingworx
The last one, "How do i check if Thingworx is working?", is pretty open-ended and the topic itself is rather complex - there are different approaches to health checking / monitoring software in general and ThingWorx in particular.
In the simplest case, one just opens http(s)://<thingworx-host>/Thingworx url and sees if Composer UI opens.
Or you can check particular API endpoints, like http://<vuforia>:2019/ExperienceService/ping for Experience Service
