Windchill

I am testing an install of CPS06 on a OOTB Windchill 11.0 m030 and it failed. This is the report from the log file. DEBUG  2018-03-22 16:18:58 - MOR Content installed files count: 15313 DEBUG  2018-03-22 16:18:58 - MOR Content install failed files count: 1 DEBUG  2018-03-22 16:18:58 - Install Status: DEBUG  2018-03-22 16:18:58 - success                      : false DEBUG  2018-03-22 16:18:58 - MOR content directory        : \\or2k8pdm2\Library\Software Library\Windchill 11.0\WC11-m030-cps06\windchill_11.0_service_pack\Disk1\MORContent DEBUG  2018-03-22 16:18:58 - Load Point                   : E:\ptc\Windchill_11\Windchill DEBUG  2018-03-22 16:18:58 - Installed files count        : 15313 DEB

We currently require that our CN Task number matches our CN Notice number.  The main reason is for reports that MFG runs against the CN number to get the Resulting Objects in PDF format for a meeting.  What I would like to do is type in the CN Notice number and get the Resulting Objects no matter what the CN Task number is that is associated with the CN Notice.  It works well if the numbers are the same, but if they get off, then the report doesn't work.  When this happens it takes a lot of time and work to get it all corrected, depending on when it was caught.  I am hoping that this is a simple join, but does anyone know how to do this?

Greetings Wind-Chillers, Our company is installing Windchill for the first time, and we are working out some of our CAD/WTPart Structure build preferences.  Windchill 11.0 M030 CPS08, WGM 11.0 M030, Inventor Pro 2017, Windows 10I am correct in predicting the behavior listed below?   We are considering adding a Boolean attribute to the CAD objects and templates called Part Structure Override Attribute Name.  As I understand it at this time, when that attribute is set to YES and even if the tick box on the check in action is set to YES, a WTPart is NOT created and Auto-Associated with the CAD object.   If the value in the CAD object was set to NO, then a WTPart would be created if the tick box on Check in was selected YES.I would very much like it if Windchill would interpret the absence of the attribute (older CAD objects) as a NO, and not create a WTPart.   I suspect this would be customization.   It seems that once the C

Hi,I need to create a report that lists Change Requests and their connected Problem Reports.For example, the preferable output would be:ECR#: Date Created: PR# Date Created:ECR-123 1/4/2006 10:20:30 PR-123 1/4/2005 10:20:30 PR-456 1/4/2004 10:20:30ECR-456 and so on...The goal is to get the time from Problem reported to ECR initiated.It seems to me that my query needs to involve some kind of link/reference between ECR and PR, could be wrong though.As you understand I'm pretty new to this, have only done some simple reports and finding a good source for learning is hard.Please let me know if more information on the subject is needed.Thankful for any tips.

A general question, how many max docs recommended in single Windchill folder?    Just wondering if PTC had a recommended amount to stay under to prevent waiting for all the docs to load up in that folder.

When PTC Windchill 11.0 Oracle to SQL Server Database Migration Tool 11.0 M030 is started and the Windchill directory is chosen a message of error appear.Saying: "The required install was not found. Directory D:\ptc\Windchill must contain the following product for the isntalltion process to continue: Windchill."   Any ideias?

Hi All,I am wondering if you guys came across this issue:We just switched to using Creo 3.  We were using Creo 2 with Windchill 10.2Our start parts have these standard relations:PART_NUMBER = rel_model_name()PART_NAME = PTC_COMMON_NAMEPART_NUMBER and PART_NAME are designated parameters, and they are used in standard drawing's BOM tables.Anyway, with Creo 2, when I renamed the CAD object in Windchill commonspace and downloaded this object to a workspace, then upon opening it and doing a regeneration, we'd get a warning about regenerating a read-only model.  Subsequently, when attempting to save it, the "checkout/continue/make read-only" dialog box would be shown.Now, in Creo 3, sames scenario leads to the model regenerating without any notifications (which is kind of nice), and the model parameters are changed (silently).However, if one does nothing else to this model, and tries to save it, then the system says "object not saved because it was not changed"  But that's obv

When I import from a 10.1 into another 10.1 system ( we tried and the same issue for 11.0 to 11.0) I get the below error. I would just like to know what does this error refer to and does anyone have a solution to this?     Nested exception is: wt.util.WTException: RepresentableObjectRef absent for Representation

Has anyone used the AutoCAD workgroup manager to interface between Windchill and AutoCAD? We do not currently have the AutoCAD workgroup manager here, but exploring the option to see if we need it.   Currently I can export a .dwg from CREO Parametric/Windchill  and open in AutoCAD; however, I can only bring the .dwg in as a doc object instead of a drawing (.drw). Not sure if the issue lies in not having a AutoCAD workgroup manager or something I am doing wrong.   Thanks!

Hello,I need a way to retrieve an existing WTDocument given an organization, a product, folder path and document name, using windchill API (Java code, no InfoEngine tasks), assuming there is only one document with that name in the folder (but could be more in different locations). Could anyone give me a hand? Thank you!

We recently migrated from Intralink 3.4/WF3 to WC 10.2/Creo3. I have discovered an issue. If we pull a drawing at an older revision using "as stored" with dependencies of "none" only the drawing is placed in the workspace at the intended rev. If you open the drawing in Creo the system pulls the latest parts. In this case we had in Creo a rev b drawing with rev c models being shown with no warning or system interaction. This is a problem. Can anyone tell me if this is out of the box behaviour and is there a way to stop this from happening with a preference?  

I am working on a custom action where the user can select one or more EPM Documents and start the action.  My implementation is currently using the request parameter to grab the oid’s/soid’s of the selected objects however it only works when the user selects 8 or less items.  Is there another way to get the list of all the selected item rows at the time the custom action is selected?  If so, can you provide some guidance?  Current method used in popup JSP ids = request.getParameterValues("soid") or id = request.getParameter("oid")   Thanks, Mark Bohannon Lenovo

Hello All,   I am trying to set up Thingworx Navigate with a Composite Resource Provider. I want to show additional non-windchill attributes in the 'View Part Structure App' along with windchill attributes.   I followed the steps mentioned in 'Navigate Install and Config Guide'. However I am stuck at the last step.   The guide mentions that we have to make the 'Use Composite Provider' radio button visible on the 'PartStructureTailoringContainedMashup' in order to view additional data.   But I am not able to edit the mashup. Have I missed some step? or is there any other way to achieve this?   I would really appreciate any help and guidance. Thanks.   Regards, Madhumita

DOES ANYONE KNOWS QUERY TO CHECK LAST LOGIN OF A USER(INACTIVE).

I have two users that I added to a group to be able to be in the approval process of the CNs.  I added that group to the Change Task activity process.  However, they cannot see CNs at all or their tasks.  Rights for the task and notice are based on Teams it looks like in the ACL.   I have two questions. How do I give users the right to see CNs at other than closed? How do I give this group rights to approve the CN Tasks they have been assigned?   Thank you, Brian

Dear all,In my Windchill 11.0 environment i have a publishrule who creates additional file if it is a released drawing.that works for "set state" and "promotion request" with the <publish on="unknown-source"I have tried to do the same in an older 10.1 environment.. (I know it's not supported anymore.. and no, i can not update to a newer release now :-))unfortunately rules are not evaluated for promotion requests. but it works fine for set state.Does anyone know this behavior?is <publish on="unknown-source" in 10.1 not the same as in 11.0?Best regards to allDaniel

I installed Windchill 11.0 on a test system and loaded base data. The system starts and I can login. However, if I shutdown Windchill or log off that computer, Windchill will not start again. The MethodServer log file shows this error: 2018-03-15 11:34:18,398 ERROR [main] wt.method.server.startup.services  - Failure to start manager wt.audit.StandardAuditServicewt.services.ManagerException: Could not initialize Auditing service.Nested exception is: wt.org.OrganizationServicesIEException: Error while attempting to obtain lock for task uri file://E:\ptc\Windchill_11\Windchill\tasks/wt/federation/QueryPrincipals.xml; nested exception is:  java.io.FileNotFoundException: E:\ptc\Windchill_11\Windchill\tasks\codebase\com\infoengine\compiledTasks\file\E$3a$5cptc$5cWindchill_11$5cWindchill$5ctasks\wt\federation\.lock (Access is denied) at wt.org.LdapServices.queryPrincipalsFromLdap(LdapServices.java:924) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at

We have migrated several PLM Systems data into Windchill in the last few years. For all of these, we have got the data extracted into staging database, converted the data using SQL scripts and Java (custom code), generated the CSV Files and loaded into Windchill using Load From File and custom utilities.   I wanted to reach out to the community to find out if others have used ETL (ex: Talend/Informatica) or other tools  (other than the Windchill Bulk Migrator) for the data mapping and conversion and learn how those tools helped the migration efforts.

How do I add objects to a workspace without using a config spec filter?   Say I search for objects last modified in a very narrow date range and want to add those exact versions to a workspace.  They may be the latest or they may not be.  Choosing the "Latest" filter doesn't collect the correct versions and the "As Stored" filter isn't listed as a choice.  What is the right way to add the exact versions of the objects returned from a search to a workspace?  Thanks.

Looking for suggestions to group similar items in My Tasks. Can I create a folder or something similar to group common tasks?

Dear All, I am trying to perform windchill cloning but I am having problem with method server and server manager getting crashed.  Steps I performed: 1. Datapump of oracle database. ->expdp 2. Exported LDIF file and took backup of WindchillDS.  3. Copied HTTPServer, Windchill folder from host system 4. Setup a server with same host and domain name. Installed Oracle with same SID and credentials as host system. Run the PSI with standalone components where I installed only WCDS, Java, OCU. Then imported dump file of oracle using impdp. Imported ldif and restored using WindchillDS backup.    Changed host property in db.properties file with host name and java.server.rmi.hostname in wt.properties file.  Since in host machine filevault was setup I changed filevault property to false instead of true.    After launching windchill shell and starting windchill, server manager gets crashed sometime leaving behind background method server running. Sometimes me

I have been getting an error every time Windows 10 tried to update for the past month. I found this handy tip on a random forum and when I uninstalled Windchill Workgroup Manager and re-ran the update and now it works! If you're seeing this same error, you should try it also.
