Fatal Errors

$
0
0

We're running Creo2 M200 with Windchill 10.2 M030, W7, on a variety of workstations and laptops.

 

I've already posted this issue here:

 

Fatal Error - Traceback log

 

But I thought I would reach out to the Windchill side for insight.  We've been struggling with this issue for quite some time, and updating to M200 seemed to resolve some of the premature exits, they are still occurring, just less frequently.  Now, they seem to occur after using Creo/Firefox (or any browser) for approximately 7-8 hours.

 

Our heavy CAD users seem to be experiencing this the most.  These users are also heavy users of web based programs (Jira, Confluence, webmail, etc) and routinely have dozens on tabs open simultaneously.   Could this be causing these errors to occur or is it a contributing factor in any way?  I'm just a bit uneducated on the topic, and am unfamiliar with how the embedded broswer cache versus external cache is handled, or if it's even a concern.

 

Thanks for your help.

Is it possible to run a perl script in the cgi-bin directory?

I need to show to pdmlink user a txt file stored in a shared directory. The file is a log file of the job conversion from Office file in PDF and is located on a different server and accessible by a shared link.

I have tried to read the file with a perl script and show it in the browser of the user user. To access it I try the link "windchill_server/cgi-bin/script.pl" but I have the error:

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

 

Does someone know how to run a cgi scrip directly from the browser?

Or another way to list in a html page a txt file stored in a shared directory.

Thank you.

WTDocuments Upload

$

Hi Windchillers,

 

I need your advice on the time line for bulk loading WTDocuemts. Approximately how much time would you need for uploading WTdocuments around 100K in number. They have approximately 12 attributes to be loaded.

 

For massive upload do you advice using any custom tool or the OOTB data load functionality (CSV to XML and then loading the file). Would appreciate your input on how you handle this in your org. to speed up this process.

 

Vaibhav.

Preselect columns in Report Builder

$

Does anyone know how I can pre-select the columns in a Report Builder (formerly QueryBuilder) query? We have many users who do not realize that they have to select all of the columns they wish to see in the resulting report and just select the column with the criteria in it. Is there a way to have the criteria page render with all of the columns checked and have the user uncheck the columns they don't want to see?

JSP Page to Set State

$

I am working on an administrative JSP page that would allow me to Set-State on wtdocuments and/or epmdocuments. I am using the Search-Objects webject to search for and get the information about the documents but, I cannot find a webect that allows me to set-state. Would anyone know how this could be accomplished in a JSP page? Is this something I would need to create a java class to handle? I have limited exposure to java so I would like to stick with the JSP if possible. Here is the search page I have currently. I would like to have the button that is clicked submit the request to the server for the state change.

Promotion request - Select participant

$
0
0

Hello all,


I've searched the archive about this and found some older threads but not much recent. Wondering if / hoping / things have improved in that last couple years on this. I want to be able to control what shows up in step three of a promotion request under the participant list. Currently, we get lots of roles and groups, some of which have some users listed under them. But non of the users are selectable induvidually. So my questions are these?


1. How do you control who/what shows up in this list?


2. How hard is it to control that?


3. Is it a bad idea to make individual users selectable in this list? We have a few lead design engineers and only one particular one of them would be required to approve a promotion request depending on what items are being promoted.


Any input on this would be much appreciated.


Also, any coments on the merit of using a CN over a PR in order to release things? I hear it gives more control but my concern is that it also adds a great deal of complexity to the process when we are simply trying move items to the next lifecycle state.

Import options for Windchill "My Meetings"?

Is there anyway you can import meetings from say thunderbird events? or Contacts?

Denying access on a folder in all products

$
0
0

In all my products,

I have 2 folders - i) Tool  and ii) Design

And it the Product team

I have 2 user - i) Tool Engineer and ii) Design Engineer

I have to deny the Tool Engineer from either from viewing the Design Folder or if it can view it should not make any changes in it.

 

I created a custom domain and set the Deny permission on Full Control for Tool Engineer on Subfolder. And then associated this Domain with Design Folder. So now the Tool Engineer is not able to see the Design Folder.

But this is applicable in only one product.

I have multiple products and to apply this I ll have to do this changing of domain multiple times which I want to avoid.

 

Please suggest solution for it. Any other approach would be welcomed.

Need to upgrade our Windchill very soon, but which version do we go to?

$

Hi all,

 

We have Windchill PDMLink version 10.1 datecode M040, which according to PTC's release calendar falls out of standard support THIS MONTH. However, I'm having real trouble deciding which version to go to;

 

  • Version 10.2 has been around for a while and the later datecodes I believe have all of the main bugs worked out, but all 10.2 versions expire in only one year (Sept 2017). That isn't really long enough.
  • Version 11.0 datecode F000 is supported up to December 2019, but it was only released at the end of last year. I've seen first-hand that earlier releases can have problems (for example, Change Task Sequencing was initially said to work in 10.1 M040 but turns out it completely doesn't even with a patch, but later versions do have it functioning).

 

So, my main question primarily for anyone here who may have already installed 11.0:

 

IS IT STABLE?

 

More specifically,

  • Does every new little function they say it can do actually work?
  • How much control do we the users/administrators get over that Cloud setup, i.e. could I remote into the main server desktop and edit configurations whenever I want like I do now with our current version, and would I still have access to all of those Org and Site administrator menus for full data object setup?
  • I've heard stories from my fellow IT members that Cloud servers are notoriously unsecure and easy to hack. What exactly are the enhanced security measures in place for one of these Cloud setups that would make it at least equal to our current hardware setups/firewalls/routers etc?
  • Has anyone had any issues with slow or crashing connections?

 

Or is it safer for us to go to 10.2 (and if so which one) and wait for at least the M010 release of 11.0 scheduled for June?

 

Please advise,

 

Daryl

Security labels in 10.2

All,

 

I am interested to know customer stories about successfully implementing Windchill security labels in 10.2 or in previous versions.

 

We are in pre-study stage using this feature.

Little bit background why we are exploring this option.

We see Access control is not enough to fulfill needs.The security labels might enable us sharing data efficiently with third parties,JVs etc. But still wondering what disadvantages and challenges it brings. Other reason behind this study, we would like to have our data classified (IP classification) as Confidential, Internal and Public etc.

 

Thanks

Dear Reader,


Our purchase department is spending hours downloading manuallya dxf file for each drawing beforesending it to the manufacturer.


We like to automate this manual downloadfrom Windchill and would like to work with Excel (and VBA).


The number of the drawing to look for could be entered in the Excel list and the vba code could download the dxf file attached to the drawing and place this in a folder.


Does anyone have experience with this and likes to share his code ?


Best regards,


Bernard Wielfaert

Hi,

how can I get a group of users?

 

I've tried this code.

 

wt.org.WTGroup myGroup = wt.org.OrganizationServicesHelper.manager.getGroup("My group");

 

But the result is allways the same—myGroup value is null.

Name of the group is correct.

 

Any help is appreciated.

Is it possible to delete single iterations of WTParts with a script?

$

Our PDM/Link experts created a lot of iterations of WTParts with a script. We would like to change them. The experts say they cannot be deleted by hand and offer to create a new empty iteration of them.

 

Have any of you found a way of deleting latest iterations of PDM/link with a script?

 

Best regards
