Hi community,

 

how to connect thingworx and vuforia? And how to check installation of experience service is done or not? I followed this doc: https://support.ptc.com/help/vuforia/es_install/en/#page/ES_Install_Help_Center%2FThingServerInstall_ESInstall_Windows.html%23 

Only configuration parameter part(Step 13), I was not able to understand. So, I didn't do this. If anyone know about this please help me.

Hello,

 

About the point 13, we have seen it, in another thread:

https://community.ptc.com/t5/Vuforia-Studio/Installation-of-experience-service-on-windows/m-p/807434

 

About your question, how to know if Vuforia Experience Service installation is done.

At the end of install, we have a successful message.

 

In a such case, we know that the connection with ThingWorx should be fine .

 

To be sure, in the folder where is installed Vuforia Experience Service, in sub folder bin, in a command prompt, run start-es.bat file.

In a web browser, open a new tab and access to Vuforia Experience Service URL who has this format :

http<s>://<FQDN>:<port>/ExperienceService/ping

 

Replace strings between <> by right values for your environment.

 

An OK should be displayed in web page.

 

Best regards,

Samuel

Hi @sdidier ,

 

I have completed installation of experience service. Now, I want change server details in installation. Can you please tell me how should I do this? Can I change server details manually in configuration.json file? Is it possible to do this manually?

 

Thanks.

Hello Nilam,

 

Yes it is possible.

 

  1. Shutdown Vuforia Experience Service
  2. Backup configuration.json file
  3. Edit it in a text editor
  4. Check json format with online checker as https://jsonformatter.curiousconcept.com/
  5. Restart Vuforia Experience Service
  6. Check output in console prompt to see if an error is reported

 

Best regards,

Samuel
