Version: Windchill 13.1

 

Use Case: Hi everyone, I have some troubles with publishing in windchill. Whenever I click the thumbnail of CAD part, there were a popup "Sent To Publisher: Select WVS Job Monitor for job status". And then I'm getting status Job Failed. Can anyone please help me how to fix it? I could'nt see any preview in my thumbnail and I couldn't directly opened it in Creo View because the status Job is still Failed

Is the CAD worker on same machine as Windchill? Was this working previously and are other object able to be published? If its just this model, then is there anything that makes it special? 

See if you see this message in Background MS logs:

Are you using remote file vaults?

Could be related to user that is publishing content:

Looks like you are getting a new error. I had some other questions in my post. Was this working before or is this first time setup issues?
