Windchill

I am having a Windchill error when I try to access the database.  The PTC logo comes up but then it times out and says "Service Unavailable".  The Windchill database is on a server and I am accessing from my PC.  We recently had a new security router installed and the IP addresses were changed.  I think this could be part of the issue but I can't find where to fix it.  If I go to the Apache server name in my browser I get the "It Works!" message.  But the log files in Windchill show the method server is not connecting.  I don't know how to fix this.  I have updated the httpd.conf file in the Apache setup folder to show the new IP but it didn't help.   Can someone please help?

Has anyone ever seen the attached error?I am deploying Windchill Intralink 9.1 M060 to a few test users. (not production yet)One user is seeing this error when opening or interacting with every Windchill page. No one else affected.However, it is only happening within the embedded browser within Pro/E (Wildfire 3 M240).No problems in a standalone browser (Internect Explorer 7).Regardless of how the user responds (Yes/No) the page is incomplete/incorrect.For example: No workspaces are listed even though some were created by the user in the standalone browser.Gerry

Is it possible to create a subtype of wt.doc.WTDocumentDependencyLink? I could not found the wt.doc.WTDocumentDependencyLink in Type and attribute management in Windchill 11.0 M20 CPS16. I want to add some more attribute (IBA) on this link by creating its subtypes.   Thank you in advance.

On our BOM we need to indicate filling pressure for tyres, so it can be used to generate work instructions and service manuals etc. For a given wheel and tyre combination the filling pressure might change depending on which product it is used on, so we want to treat it like oil, water or grease and add 1 usage of 'COMPRESSED AIR' to the EBOM and indicate quantity of 'COMPRESSED AIR' in psi or bar. Is it possible to create a custom unit for pressure?

Greetings,   How do I change distribution in Windchill? See attached sample screen shot. Would be great if I can select all and change to "D". Do I know what version of Windchill I have? No. It's hidden somewhere I suppose.   UPDATE: (thanks to Ben) Release: 11.0 M030-CPS13 Hopefully this is it.   Thanks, Wayne    

Hi All,My requirement is, to send the list of attribute values related to that Problem report to users through Workflow message.we are using OOTB problem report Workflow.1. created variables  like name, category2. add below code to expression robot in workflow,wt.change2.WTChangeIssue thisPR = (wt.change2.WTChangeIssue) primaryBusinessObject; java.util.Locale locale = wt.session.SessionHelper.getLocale(); com.ptc.core.lwc.server.PersistableAdapter obj = new com.ptc.core.lwc.server.PersistableAdapter(thisPR,null,locale,null); obj.load("name","number","description","Category"); Object nameValue = obj.get("name"); Object numberValue = obj.get("number"); Object descriptionValue = obj.get("description"); Object CategoryValue = obj.get("Category"); name = nameValue.toString(); number = numberValue.toString(); description = descriptionValue.toString(); category = CategoryValue.toString(); =======================when i try to compile it, facing issue, as shown in image,the mentioned cla

I have a module that contains a control panel, so an assembly inside another assembly.ModuleControl Panel(with part I want to negative issue)Is there a way to 'take away' a part in a BOM?ModuleExisting Part I want to negative issueControl PanelOriginal PartThe control panel is purchased with the part I want to remove, so I don't want to create two different control panels for a small part that we will take care of ourselves. I tried tying in a (-1) for the quantity, but Windchill doesn't allow negative numbers. Does anyone know of a way I can handle this?I'm using Windchill 10.2 and Creo 2.0

We have this issue with CAD represented parts which do not have representation, is there anyway, out of a full vehicle BOM, to determine which parts are missing representations so we can set about fixing them?    

We currently run with PDMLink for all of our Creo and AutoCAD documents, and recently we have implemented this for all of our words documents related to manufacturing, ie paint procedures, test procedures etc. Templates within Windchill are not set up for our organisation, and this cannot be changed. So for word documents, I have created a number of standard word templates and used the DocProperties that are mapped via Desktop Integration to windchill properties. Upon loading the document in to Winchill, these DocProperties update and fill out the required fields. This is working perfectly.   I would like to recreate this for excel format documents. Just a front sheet will do, so that we have a visual recognition of document numbers etc when they are issued for production to our workshop and external suppliers. However, I only seem to be able to insert these attributes once the document has been loaded in to Windchill. This means each time, the user would need to re-insert these a

Hi all   I am using Windchill 11.1 M010   While creating a new document, I want to choose an existing (Windchill user) for the value of an attribute like "Reviewed By" for information purpose. I do not want to fill like a text box . I need to choose.   Can this be configured without any customization/coding? If then how to do this in "Types and Attributes" page first? Thanks for your help.   Ravi 

Hi all, has anyone successfully installed Windchill 11.1 on Windows server 2016 with oracle 12c R2 without any error? I have been trying from past few days and been getting new errors everyday.

Hello everyone,  I have developed this code that find all the WtPart refrenced by a drawing (.drw). It's works fine on a stand alone Java application , but when I try to do the same on a POST_CHECKIN Listener the code is unable to find the referenced objects. Is it matter of the calculation link ?   Thank you !   public static WTPart wtpRetrieveDrawingAssociatedWtPart(EPMDocument epm) throws Exception {    WTPart wtPart = null;    CADAssociatedParts relationship = new CADAssociatedParts();   relationship.setTypes(CADAssociatedParts.Type.CALCULATED_BUILD);  List<Object[]> epmDocs = EPMNavigateHelper.navigate(epm, relationship, CollectItem.SEED_ID, CollectItem.OTHERSIDE).getRawResults();  if(epmDocs != null) {   for(Object[] objects : epmDocs) {    for(Object o : objects) {     if(o instanceof WTPart) {      WTPart tempPart = (WTPart) o;   &nbs

We have a problem with clasifications of our parts. When you save as a part, classification is inheriting. And it's make a problem - wrong classification attributes in classicator. Is there a way to automatically erase a classification when you save as a part? Windchill 10.2. Thanks!

While adding the new parts using load from file utility, they are not visible on the User creation window. I have tried to create a new part from UI it is visible on the User creation screen.   While the recently added parts are not visible at on user creation screen but can be accessed using Advanced Search which leads to a particular part details page.   Even tried to re-start the Windchill server but it did not help in any way.

Hi All,I am trying to bulk load wtdocuments into Windchill for which I have the content files and the attributes (name, number, description, version, state, IBAs etc) in an excel file. The usual method for bulk load is to create a CSV using the data in the excel file, then create an XML from the CSV (wt.load.util.CSV2XML) and finally load the documents into Windchill using the XML file (wt.load.LoadFromFile).I am trying to create a java file which will read the excel file with the raw data, create a CSV and subsequently the XML file using it and then finally invoke the load command using the XML file. Before I put all of these together, I am trying out each step individually and am not able to figure out a way to invoke the wt.load.util.CSV2XML and wt.load.LoadFromFile from a java file. Has anyone tried that? Any ideas?

I am trying to configure a query builder report based on the User table.  Our user info pulls from LDAP and includes the user ID (name), Full Name, and supervisor.  The supervisor value is actually the supervisor's user ID (Name attribute).  I'd like be able to have the report show the Full Name of the user's supervisor rather than just the ID.  In other words, I'd like to run the report from the Users table and evaluate the returned supervisor ID against the Users table again to have the Full Name returned.  Is this possible?  I've tried to clarify with an image mockup.  I can't find anything that seems to do this... albeit I am fairly new to this.  I have started going through the massive reporting document in this community but haven't found anything that helps in this case yet.

Hello,   I have several WTpart master attributes with defined default values. The default value display mode is set to prepopulate.   When I create a new WTpart in Windchill, everything works fine.   However, when I create a new CAD document in the workgroup manager, which automatically creates and associates a WTpart, the default values are not set in the created WTpart.   Any hints how to solve this?

Hi All,I have created the Check In Event Listener for CAD Document with WTPart. My Listener searches for WTPart in Windchill and it associates as Content Link for CAD Document while Checking through work group manager. If WTPart is not existed in Windchill Check in should be failed and a error message in the Workspace. Can any one provide the API.Thanks,Hemanth kumar

I'm facing the same issue still not yet resolved

Anyone out there working with Windchill and The Compliance Map as your environmental compliance solution? Like to share approaches and best practices for bi-directional data sharing between WC and CMAP.   -Scott  

It seems that I have yet another Windchill/Creo issue.   I am running Creo 5.0.4.0 with Windchill 11.1 on Windows 10.1   I have run into an issue where I am unable to check-in, revise, or set state of files when the operation is done from my workspace or Windchill Commonspace. However, I am able to check-in by opening parts in Creo, and using the manual File>Check-in option.   At first I thought it was just being slow. I let it sit over the weekend and the loading wheel never stopped. It seems like the embedded browser is getting "stuck" after I click the check-in button on the embedded browser.   So far, I have tried the following: * Changed my browser option from internet_eplorer to chromium, and back * Opened a PTC support case * Cleared/Delete cache files * Uninstalled Creo, completed fresh install * Cleared/Deleted appdata in %appdata%/local/PTC and %appdata%/Roaming/PTC on the PC     None of these attempts have solved the issue. Does anyone here h

I am trying to setup Jenkins project to deploy automatically. Now the source package generated(jar file) via ant script contain “java -jar BIFSDK-*.*.*.**.jar dist”  command.Then next step should be make batch script to deploy the source package to Windchill server.  but  my issue is how to make script, that the tools opinion can be selected by script after executing the command "java -jar XXXXXXDist.jar install"？pls see the screenshot below.

How to Perform Check-in automatically from a specific folder in local drive. i have set of pdf in specfic folder outside windchill. can the checkin operation can be performed automatically from that folder that the pdf documents are placed in windchill automatically ??

Hey All,   I keep having an issue when working on assemblies in Creo using Windchill. I will make an assembly by addign components from Windchill commonspace but for some reason (often when I have spend hours making the assembly) it will start referencing the local versions that it downloaded to my workspace instead of the files in the commonspace. I can see it happens because the Database Status goes from Download to New.    How do I prevent this? Can I fix it if it's already happened?   Creo Parametric 5.0.3.0

Has anyone figured out how to get the tables to expand by default?  I look at the Tasks for Change Process on CN's quite a bit and it's annoying to have to expand them every time I open a CN.  It would be nice for each user to have the option to expand everything or specific tables.
