It has been a while since I had to rehost my production machine to a test server, but I recently upgraded to 10.2 and would like my test server to reflect the 10.2 production server so that I have a fresh start. I would like to use the Rehost 2.0 tool to help me since I do not want to go through a manual rehost. I do have Solr turned on, some customization and connect to our corporate LDAP. I have an app server and a database server in production and am moving to the same on two virtual servers. Which method would be better and why?Copy all the files to the new machines, import the database and use RenameUse Rehost with a staging areaUse Clone with a staging area

Hi admins Something is wrong in TWX. Here is the bottom left of the Composer: "Waiting for available socket"   I wanted to post a screenshot, but it seems I am no longer able to.   This looked like a bug, but no: actually this is a user error. I have another tab showing the TWX Runtime, and it currently has the login dialog up waiting for my password. When I login correctly in that tab, then my Composer works fine.   So this is not a bug, but it is a usability issue. Rick  

Anyone now what this business is about?  We did a search for a part number and a file other than that name came up.  1000617 was searched for and 1006123 was returned... when looking at the attributes in CREO  View I see this.  epmdoc_teamName shows another number...    It appears the file was originally named 1000617 and then renumbered and named to 1006123..  is this going to cause me problems down the road?

Hi All,   I am using  Rehost Utility 3.0 M010 to rehost Windchill PDMLink, and it seems that it is ignoring the properties that I provided.   I have 3 adapters, 2 are base administrative and enterprise, and one additional JNDI adapter, which has been configured with those properties:   target.ldap.username.<domain>.<adaptername>=target.ldap.password.<domain>.<adaptername>=target.ldap.hostname.<domain>.<adaptername>=target.ldap.port.<domain>.<adaptername>=   And rehost is successful, but some Windchill properties are not updated.    mapcredentials.admin.adapters and wt.federation.org.directoryServices properties contain only two entries instead of 3, and missing one is that additional JNDI adapter.   What else needs to be filled to have that set up by Rehost Utility?

Hi ,   I have set up a Thingworx foundation local environment in my machine(running on self signed SSL) . now i would like to add thingworx navigate extension to my local environment ?   is it possible ?. if yes can someone share me te steps for the setup or any reference document .   Thank you.  

We are seeing issues with upgrade of an 8.5 Thingworx Navigate app to Thingworx NAvigate 9.  Lack of support to Microsoft Edge Legacy and IE is little frustrating. Lot of shop floor users are still using old browsers.  Is there any workaround to show the app for legacy browser?

HI all,   Can anyone please help me in optimizing the SQL query . I have written a sql query to retrieve WTParts when 2 IBAs are given . (using OR, AND conditions).   SELECT A0.* FROM WTPart A0,UnitValue A1,StringValue A2,WTPARTMASTER A3 WHERE (A0.ida3masterreference=A3.ida2a2 and A3.WTPartNumber LIKE 'RT-3294%') AND (((A1.idA3A6 = 3853762) AND (A1.value = 0.037099) AND (A1.idA3A4 = A0.idA2A2)) OR ((A2.idA3A6 = 19907282) AND (A2.value = '22') AND (A2.idA3A4 = A0.idA2A2))) AND (A0.idA3view = 569) AND (A0.latestiterationInfo = 1) AND (A0.variation2 IS NULL ) AND (A0.statecheckoutInfo <> 'wrk').   But when this query is executed , its generating only 1 part more than 10k times . May I know if I have to modify the query.   Thanks.

Hi All, From Windchill 11 onward, PTC provided longDescription attribute to support Rich text contents. For now this attribute is available for only Change types objects.   This is Modeled Attributes. Is any way to reuse this attribute on other Types like on WTPart or WTDocuments ?   Kindly share your thoughts.   Thanks and Regards, Vivek

Im using windchill 10.1 M030, We have written a code for creating project automatically based on the lifecycle state of the document. When the document is released, the project will be created by the listener. Now the users are added manually in the respective roles in the project. Instead i wanted to add a particular members of a role from library as a project manager in the project context. Need help with this.

We have several sub-type Change Notices   I created a report that shows me all the currently open CN's but using the top-level Change Notices. This report shows who the current assignee is and when it was assigned to them.   I have a request from one of my users that asked if all the CN sub-types ("ECN Type" shown below) could be shown in the criteria page when creating the report and have it so the user can select which CN's to report on.   I looked at it but couldn't figure out how to make that happen. Does anyone know how to do that?

I am cloning a 10.2 M020 Server.But when I am done all the configuration and trying to start the windchill.I am getting following message in server manager and it gets stuck.

For a certain Creo family tables, when the assembly containing these family table parts are opened in Creo View from the WIndchill Details tab, the family table objects do not appear in their assembly in Creo View.  Instead, they have an unresolved branch link next to the object in the model tree.  When the same viewable is opened from the Windchill Structure tab, the model and its objects display correctly in Creo View.  Has anyone experienced this issue before? 

My understanding of a baseline in Windchill: a collection of items in a specified version. This is basically version control that is required for an assembly and it's many parts. In Windchill SIM, it is required for version control of a manual and it's many xml descendants. However, it seems we can't do anything with this baseline in SIM. Some cases: Opening this baseline (or an object from this baseline) is not possible. You can add a baseline to your workspace, but you can only open the latest version in Arbortext. Request a new translation from a baseline. When a product is selling well in a particular region, product management decides later that we want to sell it in a different region too and thus require new translations for an old manual. It is however impossible to transfer this package (what a baseline essentially is) to a translation package. Translation packages can only be created on the latest version, not from a baseline. Publish from a baseline. Our software in some p

Hello all. I hope you are doing great. I would like to know if is possible to export the documents of a product to a project.
