Workflow History Viewer

Hi team

The help page linked below says there is a Workflow History Viewer utility :

$  windchill wt.workflow.engine.WfMonitor

 

We have WC 12.0.2, and I get 'ClassNotFoundException'

 

Is there a typo in the class name? Do I need to add to the classpath?

Thanks

Rick

Hi @rleir 

 

I guess that PTC remove this utility from the Windchill.

 

I can't find the class and any similar utility in the Windchill 12.0.2.1

    Hi @rhart 

    Windchill has to be stopped before you start the utility

      Hi Petr

      I stopped WC, but that did not help.

      $ windchill wt.workflow.engine.WfMonitor
Error: Could not find or load main class wt.workflow.engine.WfMonitor
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: wt.workflow.engine.WfMonitor

      Thanks
