Gurus,

I am using Wildfire4 with PDMLink9 most of the time. The other time I am
supporting a customer who is still on Wildfire3 with no PDM. Every time
I launch W3 it wants to register the server; is there is a config.pro
option that I can add to my wildfire3 config so it will quite asking me
to register the PDMLink server?

Thanks,

Eric

REM set the .wf folder location to c:\workspaces

@set PTC_WF_ROOT=c:\wf4workspaces



Set that in the WF3 batch file to some other folder.

2 things you can do:
1. add "dm_remember_server no" to your config.pro
2. make sure you don't have any config options such as pro_format_dir
that have a value starting with wtpub:// or ilcs://

Eric,

I use the following lines in a startup batch file:

set PTC_WF_ROOT=%userprofile%\My Documents\ProE\PTC\.wf
set PTC_WF_CACHE=%userprofile%\My Documents\ProE\PTC\.wf

You can create a duplicate startup file that doesn't contain these
settings or has them commented out. In addition, if you have config
files with directory settings for Windchill, you can copy these with
your startup batch files accordingly prior to launching Wildfire.

Regards,

James
