Hi,

I need some guidance for workflow code to get name of the Product, where EPM or WT Document is located.

I need to include document location (Product name) as Promotion task notification email subject. I know how to customize task notification email template, but I also need document location.

Thanks in advance.

10.2 M030 CPS10 - Has anyone been able to compile the CATIA V5-6R2015 WGM Abstraction dll's?

$
0
0

Hi,

 

We have just updated our TEST System to 10.2 M030 CPS10 (only released today) and I am trying to compile the CATIA V5 Abstraction dll's for the WGM.

 

I have successfully compiled dll's for CATIA versions 18 to 24, but version 25 fails with the error saying "ERROR - Abstraction or loader files don't exist"

 

It seems a bit strange when setting up the compilation environment as the CATVBTsetup command does not show a Visual Studio checkbox, only showing an Eclipse/IBM Rational Applications one, which I think is indicative that something is wrong (presumably with the CATIA / API / RADE) software - but I have tried this with both GA and SP3 versions of the CATIA software and get the same issue. In which case, others should be seeing this problem too.

 

I have logged a call with PTC, but was wondering if anyone else had seen this?

CAD worker Failure Notification

$
0
0

Our Windchill CAD Worker does seem to have a habit of failing at regular intervals. Whilst it is easy to rectify the problem, it can be a major inconvenience if you do not quickly discover the failure. The delay can often result in thousands of jobs that need to be resubmitted and a knock on effect with new jobs also being delayed whilst the backlog is cleared.

 

So for sometime I have been trying to develop a notification tool that will "push" a notification to me by email as soon as the CAD Worker fails. After limited success with custom scripts, I stumbled across a ready-made solution in Windchill that was right under my nose. So just in case any other forum members have been struggling with the same problem, here is my solution.

 

I have discovered that you can in fact setup a Windchill subscription on an entire product context that will detect when the CAD Worker fails on a CAD document. The beauty of this is that you can easily manage the circulation list for notification, you can also have different notifications on a product-by-product basis and have the notification delivered according to a schedule.

 

I’ve outlined the method below, just in case you are interested in giving it a go yourself.

 

All comments welcome.

 

  • Browse products and click View All.
  • Right click on the target context and select Subscribe.
  • Give the subscription a name and then click on the search button next to the Type field.

  • Select CAD Document and click OK.

Image 2.jpg

  • Select event type Publish Unsuccessful and Life Cycle states All.

  • Setup the rest of the subscription as usual. I have my notification delivered according to schedule to avoid being bombarded with emails!!

When Creo publishing starts failing,is it possible to set up an alert/notification to administrators so that corrective action can be performed before a long queue of failed jobs accumulate?

Dear All,

 

We are looking to automatically transfer data captured by barcode scanners into Windchill PDMLink. Some of the scanners we use are Koamtac and Cognex, and we scan UID labels (similar to RFID labels) on our parts. Just wondering if this is possible, and how to do it. Would appreciate any input you can provide on this topic.

 

Thanks you in advance.

I've been experimenting with DTI... We may implement with WC 10.1.

 

Currently have a test WC 10.1 F000 install. On that machine, DTI from F000 is installed also - works ok.

Just updated the WC to M010. On tech support call C10869556 I asked "What will be the user experience if there DTI is not the version?" Answer from tech support: "I am not really sure about it. I don’t have a test system to try it for now, Could you please test it?"

 

Before I do this - PTC, what is the answer? I'm thinking about having DTI installed on 2000 computers in 13 facilities, and understanding what needs to happen in order to have all users working the Monday am after upgrade.

 

thanks in advance.

WTPart - EPM Link getting ignored using OOTB Import/Export Framework WC 10.0

$

Hi Guys,

 

Need some help here. I am using the OOTB import/export framework for import/export of Objects in Windchill 10.0 M030.

When the EPM Document is imported first in Windchill and the related WTPart later the link between them is not created i.e. is getting ignored.

 

Any idea on how to "not ignore" link creation in any circumstances i.e. irrespective of the fact whether WTPart or EPM Doc is imported first in Windchill,

the link between them should be created.

 

Any help will be highly appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Business Rules Framework: Confirm Publish?

$
0
0

Guys,

 

Windchill 10.1 MO10 introduced a “Business Rules Framework” which was utilized to satisfy a couple of our customization requests reducing our customizations and maintenance cost.

  1. Confirm Check-in
  2. Confirm Roles populated

 

The attached document became available at the Windchill 10.1 MO10 release, but we had gotten a pre-release via the Windchill Technical Committee (in 2010, I think) so I am sure improvements have been made to the documentation and framework since then. 

 

We currently have a need for a “Confirm Publish” in 10.2 M030 that we could also embed into a workflow (like we have with the two mentioned above) that would take a look at the associated data in the workflow and confirm all objects successfully published at particular state changes that happen in the workflow. 

 

Any updates, advise or direction to assist would be greatly appreciated to help meet the need of a "Confirm Publish" capability.

Dear Members,

               Greetings of the day!!

    We have a task to public our Windchill URL to internet so that the remote users can also access the same when they are out of network.

Can someone help us out with the resolution.

Till now we have assigned one Static IP to the Windchill server but when we access Windchill through this the Apache asks for the credentials but after authentication the URL gets change to the Host name of the Windchill server ( e.g. http://host.mycompany.com:848/Windchill instead of 153.xx.xx.xxx/Windchill).

 

Please suggest the solution if anyone of you have faced the same issue earlier.

 

Your support will be appreciated.

 

 

Thanks

"No Cache designated vault" exception while uploading graphics

Hi,

 

I'm using Windchill ProjectLInk 9.1, trying out the Structured Authoring test cases.

 

When trying to load a graphic file into the workspace "Tech_Pub", after selecting the file and
clicking finish, the UI goes to a page with a "Processing..." gif animation and never returns.

 

I checked the MethodServer log file (MethodServerLog4j-7344.log), and it has an exception:

 

2011-06-14 10:16:56,090 ERROR [RMI TCP Connection(26)-10.0.0.82] wt.fv.uploadtocache -
(wt.fv.uploadtocache.uploadtocacheResource/10) wt.util.WTException: There is no Cache designated vault or active folder for Cache designated vault on Local Master Site.

 

Does anyone know what this means and how to fix it?

 

Thanks,

Richard Steadman
