Hello, please tell me how you can undo the last actions with Windchill files? How to restore a previous version if I didn't do a backup. I made a lot of changes in 2 days, and now I want to restore the contents of the files.
Good evening to everybody; I need to designate all the parameters of the Creo components within windchill.Is it possible to make a total designation? I hope that someone can help me.
Hello, When validating a Node in Vault configuration applet panel error "HTTP error 504 "https://CLUSTER_ALIAS/Windchill/servlet/javaRMIServlet?forward=5003"" is displayed after 10 minutes. Customer is on AWS and configured a cluster node with Windchill 10.2 M030 CPS28 after a rehost. JMX/RMI ports are opened on both node and telnet is working.

I have observed below scenario on windchill connected Creo: There is TestPart.prt available on local disk. It is not available on Windchill Perform below operation from Creo and we will have default version A.1 of TestPart.prt File ---> Open --> TestPart.prt (from disk on Creo) File --> Check In --> Auto Check In Perform below operation from Creo File --> Check In --> Check Out File --> Check In --> Auto Check In After step 3 , I could see that TestPart.prt is at A.2. As there is no difference in both A.1 and A.2 (no change in Creo for considered part file), part should not iterate to A.2 when we perform step 3. Is this expected behavior from Windchill or is there preference or configuration for this?
Hello, please tell me how to fix the situation, I performed the actions strictly according to the example from the documentation https://support.ptc.com/help/windchill/wc111_hc/whc_en/index.html#page/Windchill_Help_Center%2FIEUG_WSFWriteIEWS_IEUG_WSFCreateProject.html%23 . But now windchill does not start
Hello, please tell me how to run server Windchill? After an unplanned restart of my computer, I cannot enable Windchill. Tried through programs to start and through Windchill Shell to start the windchill start command, but it did not turn out to start the server. Only one thing helped-restart the computer, then the windchill server starts itself
Hi, I would like to know if it is possible to create MPMLink Operations' default representations with Creo Illustrate instead of Creo View? Not sure if this makes a difference but under Site > Utilities > Documents > PSE > MPMLink Specific Preferences > Process Plan Browser > Manage Illustrations with Creo Illustrate i changed it to "Yes" I also added the publishing rule XML file for MPMLink objects as stated in the Windchill - Creo Illustrate intergration documentation. Appreciate your assistance. Thank you
We've put in the same tech support call several times, asking how to set up so that Windchill will email alist of people when any queue has a severe queue entry (JConsole has this as an advertised feature). So far, we get close but can't get it to actually work. No help from tech support except to point us to the same documents about to how to configure JConsole to email - which don't have enough detail.We currently have a few workflows with some type of intermittent problem - maddening. Each time,they result in a wf queue that is at severe, with the message "null pointer exception." So far, every single one has been resolvedby simply setting Severe to Ready - but, we have to constantly monitor it.So, does anyone have automatic email notifications working when queue entries are severe (thru JConsole or other)?? We'd love to learn from you whatever details we're missing to actually get this to work - I'll owe you (another) beer.thanks in advance
Hi Everyone, I am currently working on a project to improve the way we manage our Product Labels in Windchill. The team is struggling with the data architecture and authoring tool options at our disposal. Would anyone be willing to divulge their current solution? I'm interested in the tool used to author the label graphics and Windchill objects used to manage the content. Thanks! Patrick Williams
Hi,is there an option to set a specific JRE for Creo, Windchill, ...We are limited to Java 7 because of Windchill 10.2. So I'd like to install Java 7 in a seperate Folder and use it only for Creo.We are using the mozilla based browser.br Bernhard
Hello, So, I have successfully coded an expression robot to move objects from one subfolder to another...within the same Product, but I have need to move them from one Product to another. i.e.: FROM current location... site/myOrg/Product_WIP/SomeAreaFolder/CurrentFolder TO location... site/myOrg/Product_PROD/Somewhere/DestinationFolder (just need the java address of this?) In java, the initial address is "/Default/AreaFolder/CurrentFolder". I can move object anywhere within Product_WIP or /Default no problem, such as "/Default/AreaFolder/NewFolder". With "/Default" being the "top" folder (which is 1 Product_WIP)...how do I address for folders in Product_PROD? Normal java relative paths do not work like "../folder-up1level". Thanks, ~PB
Hello, please tell me what type should be the variable obj ? I found an example of editing a template https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article?n=CS150777 , but there was a problem with the type of variable, tried everything I knew and everything that was recommended, it did not work to pass the test. CODE: wt.maturity.PromotionNotice notice = (wt.maturity.PromotionNotice)primaryBusinessObject; wt.fc.QueryResult results = wt.maturity.MaturityHelper.service.getPromotionTargets(notice); while (results.hasMoreElements()) { obj = results.nextElement();  
Hello Steve,Thanks for sharing this qml report definition! Very handy. One quick question, how do I display the user name who has the items checked out when I run the report? I can see the names when I preview from the query builder, but not when I run the report.Thanks again!
1. Let’s assume Master Windchill is located in “UK”2. We want to use same Master Windchill in “Canada” and “Netherlands” as well. But we have an Export control and security control policies which says that: Ø The Data or files created in Canada, they should be vaulted to Canada and does not go to Master in UkØ Same for Netherlands Data or files created in Netherland, they should be vaulted to Netherland and does not go to Master in UK Is this scenario is possible to achieve when UK is master server and Canada and Netherland is “File Server”. If yes, how can we achieve this ?? for example · Vaulting rules ?· File Vault configuration ?· No Replication/Sync to Master in UK?? Looking forward for your suggestions.
We are currently looking into providing an area of the PDMLink database for storing Export Controlled data.I have created a Product with the appropriate aaccess rules for the users but now I need to make sure that the physical CREO files do not get stored on the Master server which is in another country. I want to store these files on our local replication server only. The files must also not get replicated to any other replication servers either.Is there anyone out there who has already done this and can give me some guidance regarding the setting up of vaulting rules, an example of a rule would be good.Thanks in advance
HiBackground : I have an assembly A.asm which has three child parts p1.prt , p2.prt and p3.prt..These four objects are available on windchill.I got these four objects from other users through email. He had modified and don't have windchill. So, I saved it on local drive on computer.I opened assembly in Creo from disk (so all four updated objects in Creo), checked out assembly from windchill. Performed default check in of assembly from Creo.With this operation, I got assembly and parts iterated to next version on windchill.Problem Description:This is what it is (all four objects iterated to next version) on windchill configuration one.We have another setup of windchill. Above same scenario with same data is tried out. There I got only assembly updated to next iteration, not dependent parts.Query :What is there in windchill setup 1 which updates all four objects to next iteration by simply doing check in of assembly? In other words, what could be done on setup 2 or setup one to make both
Hello PTC Community, I am fairly new to both Java and especially to the WC API, but I muddle through ok. I am stuck on some API and need the guru help! The intent: check for next available Version (Rev), common to a WTSet (that part works), then if the result is numeric, rev the whole WTSet to A.1, or if the result is alpha, then rev the whole set to the result. Most of the time the items should all be numeric, going to A.1, which is "legal" in our WC setup. I have tried both the following approaches: newVersion(Versioned version, VersionIdentifier version_id, IterationIdentifier iteration_id)-OR-newAdHocStringVersion(AdHocStringVersioned version, java.lang.String adHocVersionId) I gave up on "newVersion" because I could not get the "userClassName" reference to work out in MultilevelSeries (needed for VersionIdentifier)...there is no explanation for what is realy needed in this argument in the API. I tried using several things as the "user". Here are a few with the associated er
We are using the Thingview widget on a mashup and want to use the "Views" functionality. The function works fine with the first model (extracting the views from the Thingview, storing as infotable and then binding the list again to the "Views"). However, when we load a new model (changing "ProductToView") the previous views seem to stay in memory and the new views (from the new model) are added to the list. I do not think that this is due to my implementation (have tried many workarounds). The only thing that seems to work is to completely refresh the webpage. Did anyone experience the same behaviour and is there any known workaround that actually resets the ThingView widget?
I am currently working on modeling a large and complex system in WRR. The problem I am having is that WRR seems to be hanging up when trying to generate the cut set for the diagram. It gets to 1%, or 24%, or 2 etc, and then will stay at that level of progress for hours without progressing any further. Is there any known issues with the way that it calculates cut sets off of the RBD, or any methods of modeling that the cut set generator has a hard time with? Is it possible that the model is just too large?
Greetings all. I'm a novice Report writer, but I'm giving it a whirl. I've written a small report to return all parts that have been Superseded in Windchill. I can get that, and the State of the WTPart that was the result of the super-session. What I can't seem to collect is the state of the Superseded part? Strange to me that I can't seem to collect both. Every time I add a second lifecycle to the report, I get duplicates and an incorrect result. I've Photoshopped what I'm looking for and attached the QML. Anyone got any ideas? Thanks in Advance. James Windchill 11.0 M030

I added the code as in the documentation to all XML files, but the tab did not appear after restarting the server and clearing the cache. Attach screenshots of files in XML format
Is there a way to modify the additional files published names by using model parameters (like revision, or version, for example) as a suffix? What I'd like to do is something like this: <publish on="create-representation" display-label="Publish w/ additional files" additional-files="dump_to_all" output-suffix=">{revision parameter} </> but as another post noted, the keys aren't available.
Is it possible to check how much time an engineer spends on a project? Maybe is there any option in his workspace?
