Hello, I'm currently practicing Windchill Customization by referring to the Windchill Customization Guide. 
I'm trying to attach a Primary Attachment to a Pet, but even when I refer to the guide's examples, the primary attachment component doesn't appear. 
Other attributes, includeing the attachment wizard step, are displayed correctly. 
Here's my code. 
 
-------------------------------
petCreate.jsp : 
<%@taglib prefix="jca" uri="http://www.ptc.com/windchill/taglib/components"%>
<%@taglib prefix="attachments" 
<%@include file="/netmarkets/jsp/components/beginWizard.jspf"%>
<%@include file="/netmarkets/jsp/components/includeWizBean.jspf"%>
<jca:initializeItem 
baseTypeName="com.Pet" 
operation="${createBean.create}" 
attributePopulatorClass="com.ptc.core.components.forms.DefaultAttributePopulator"/>
 
<jca:wizard formProcessorController="com.form.TestFormProcessorController">
   <jca:wizardStep action="petDefineItemAttributesWizStep" type="pet"/>
   <jca:wizardStep action="attachments_step" type="attachments"/>
</jca:wizard>
 
<%@include file="/netmarkets/jsp/util/end.jspf"%>
-------------------------------
 
-------------------------------
pet-actions.xml : 
<objecttype name="pet" class="com.Pet" resourceBundle="com.jca.testManagerResource">
 
<action name="create">
<command class="com.form.CreatePetFormProcessor" url="jsp/ootb/petCreate.jsp" method="execute" windowType="popup"/>
</action>
 
<action name="modify">
<command class="com.ptc.core.components.forms.DefaultEditFormProcessor" url="jsp/ootb/petModify.jsp" windowType="popup"/>
</action>
 
<action name="petDefineItemAttributesWizStep" afterVK="setAttributesWizStep" preloadWizardPage="true" required="true">
<command url="jsp/ootb/petCreateAttrWizStep.jsp" windowType="wizard_step"/>
</action>
 
</objecttype>
-------------------------------
 
 
-------------------------------
petCreateAttrWizStep.jsp :
<%@taglib uri="http://www.ptc.com/windchill/taglib/mvc" prefix="mvc"%>
<%@include file="/netmarkets/jsp/util/begin_comp.jspf"%>
<%@taglib prefix="attachments" 
 
<jsp:include page="${mvc:getComponentURL('com.builder.PetSetAttributePanelBuilder')}"/>
<attachments:primaryAttachment/>       <------- Where I want the component to appear, but noting happened.
 
<%@include file="/netmarkets/jsp/util/end_comp.jspf"%>
-------------------------------
 
If there's anywhere I've made a mistake, please let me know. Thank you.

The issue was resolved.

While debugging the source of com.ptc.windchill.enterprise.tags.attachments.PrimaryAttachmentsTag, I found that the Tag was not working because the "createType" attribute value was missing in the servlet request object.
