Question

Physical Windchill server conversion to Virtual is not working

Hi Everyone,

I virtualized a physical Windchill server and added the VM to my Hyper-V environment.

When I try to access Windchill on the VM, I get prompt for a username and password. Once I submit my credentials, I get the dreaded "503 Service unavailable".

I can see that the PTC HTTP and PTC Windchill services has started.

Where else should I look to resolve this error?

Thanks in advance.

May be you need to open the 80 port in the Windows Firewall of your windchill server.

when I put in the \\localhost:80 in a browser, Apache responds with "it works"

It looks like an application server issue. Could you have a look at the Windchill/logs folder? to be specific MethodServer-XXXX logs there
