doc2pv.exe crashes when publishing

Hi All,

 

I've set up the office worker on a separate server using the Adobe Experience Manager. The Worker Daemon is started from a CMD Window and not set as a service.

While publishing the doc2pv.exe application crashes.

 

Details: Windchill 10.2

            Creo View Adapters 3.0

            Adobe Experience Manager 6

 

The application crashes while publishing an Excel Doc (see attachment) . For Word the job fails directly with the following error:

 

17.08.2016 09:55:39:Failed to publish document file "D:/FTP/worker/w1i1j6/test.docx" to "D:/FTP/worker/w1i1j6/test_docx.pdf"

.asm structure including merged parts

When looking at the structure tab of a .asm file, it doesn't show any of the merged models. Is there a way to show this?

 

We have many cases where a forging is merged into a .prt to create the machining features. Of course, .prt files don't have a structure tab, However, in the related objects tab in the References table it does show the forging used.

 

I have been unable to figure out how to show the forging (related object) int he structure tab of my assemblies. We know the link is tracked by Windchill, so now we just need it to show an accurate assembly structure.

 

Any ideas or hints?

OIR Folder setting

Before I open a call with PTC to report this as a bug, I want to see if others are having the same issue.

 

The CS article states that you can change the folder location for things like promotion requests, change requests, change notices, parts, etc.

https://support.ptc.com/appserver/cs/view/solution.jsp?n=CS21487

 

I have modified my OIR for Promotion Requests to use folder.id of /Default/Promotion Requests/2016. This works fine.

I have done the same for Change Requests, /Default/Change/Change Requests/2016. This also works.

When I set Change Notice to use /Default/Change/Change Notice/2016, change notices fail to be created and I get an error. As soon as I reload the OIR with only /Default for the folder, I can create a change notice.

 

Shouldn't the folder.id setting work the same across all types of data?

We use the comments section to communicate within the workflows activities. Users have to hunt over to the Process tab to see these instructions.
I would like to take the Comment in the activity and put it into the workflow variable special_instructions so that it shows on the task details.
Has anyone the code?

Thanks!

Biggest "Binary" Windchill Performance Issues?

August 29, 2016, 6:09 am
$

In my experience with Windchill I’ve noticed that the majority of the issues faced by users, administrators, and other trouble-shooters can be classified as “Binary”: something is either functioning correctly or not.  (There are also “Optimization” problems, but I’ll address that under a different post.) 

 

Binary problems are typically associated with business configuration issues.  For example…

  1. Workflow templates configured with possible non-complete-able scenarios
  2. ACL configuration that allows too much or not enough access to users
  3. Type and/or Attribute configurations that don’t exhibit expected behavior (layout, attribute and value display/access, search function, etc…)
  4. Unintended context-by-context configuration variance (e.g. caused by a lack of templates)
  5. Other similar business configurations

 

What is your experience with “Binary” problems?

How would you rank the above issues (or other issues you experience) relative to their impact on application performance as a whole (Most common to least common)?

Are there other important “Binary” scenarios that I’ve missed?

What are the most detrimental “Binary” performance issues in your Windchill installation that you are experiencing today?

 

I’m assembling a list of Windchill performance management priorities for my boss.  Thanks for your help!

We are having issues this morning with some of the drawings NOT getting published on the cad worker. We are seeing the below error message when we look at the publish job summary. Note this is only happening to some users/drawings.


I did see the article (CS33760) on ptc.com and still confused on why some users are having problems and others are not.


We are using WC 9.0 M060 and Wildfire4


 


Thanks for the help.

how can I change the system profile of an agent in psm?

I already edit the system profile agent space and enter a unique name for each agent. All the servers connect to the the correct hosts. Meaning by this, that when the system profiles where created each had a certain host. But the problem is that, all the servers have the same system profile, which I cannot change.

Restructuring the old classification structure with a new structure thereby developing a utility

Hi All,

 

 

I need to develop a utility where I need to delete the old classification structure and load a new classification structure in the alphabetical order or restructuring of the old classification structure.

 

 

Say for suppose within the below sample structure

          Structure| Part | Electronic Parts | Capacitors | Capacitor, Aluminum

 

 

1.) The changes that has to be made in the first level is replacing the word Structure with Obj

          Obj| Part | Electronic Parts | Capacitors | Capacitor, Aluminum

2.) Within the second level there will not be any changes

3.) However in the third level we need to use a single digit alphabet character as shown below

    Obj| Part | Electronic Parts | Capacitors | Capacitor, Aluminum

to

          Obj| Part | C | Capacitors | Capacitor, Aluminum

 

 

So how would I develop it in the form or a utility ?

 

 

4.) And we need to use the same classification attributes that were used in the old structure to the corresponding new level definition.

 

 

So I need some inputs or some code snippets in case like how to develop that utility. Can anyone please let me know about it once.

 

 

Best Regards,

Aditya Achanta

Hi All,

 

How do we performing testing in Classification Tree?

 

Say in my case there are more than 200 levels with every level having a child node and a sub child node with their own attributes, inherited attributes, constraints etc. So in this case how do I automate the testing ? Or do I need to manually check the entire classification tree.

 

If there is any way to automate the testing process thereby developing a utility ? Can anyone please let me know about it once.

 

Best Regards.

Biggest "Optimization" Windchill Performance Issues?

August 30, 2016, 5:53 am

In similar light of my question yesterday regarding "Binary" performance issues ...


I’ve noticed that there are a lot of Windchill performance issues associated with problems I call “Optimization” issues:  something is functioning, but not to the level of quantity/quality/speed expected or desired.

 

Optimization problems are typically associated with system configuration issues.  For example…

  1. Long times to open/check-out/save objects (particularly large EPMDocuments
  2. Slow speeds / intermittent connectivity between master site and replica sites
  3. Variance in response time of general Windchill browsing and lightweight tasks over the course of the workday
  4. Resource/time impact during backup procedures
  5. Other similar system configurations …

 

What is your experience with “Optimization” problems?

How would you rank the above issues (or other issues you experience) relative to their impact on application performance as a whole (Most common to least common)?

Are there other important “Optimization” scenarios that I’ve missed?

What are the most detrimental “Optimization” performance issues in your Windchill installation that you are experiencing today?

 

This is also part of the list of Windchill performance management priorities I am assembling for my boss.  Thanks again for your help!

ProjectLink server not being recognized by supplier

Hello all!

 

We are use Windchill ProjectLink to share our CAD documents with our suppliers.  We are having issues where the supplier goes through the steps to register a new server and after they click "CHECK" nothing happens.  The server doesn't show up in server management dialogue box.

 

We are using Creo 2.0 our supplier is using Creo 3.0 and I believe we are using the same version of Windchill.  Is there a server compatibility issue here?  Any thoughts on avenues to explore to remedy this problem?

 

Thanks!

Importing Creo Assemblies into Solidworks issue

Hello!

 

I've ran into an issues sharing CAD with a supplier who is using Solidworks 2016.  The issue seems to be isolated to assemblies where casted/pre-formed parts are inserted/merged into the assembly and additional assembly-based features are used to complete additional “machining” on the casting or pre-form.  When translating these assemblies, I think Solidworks does not have the ability to recognize Creo commands within an assembly.  Thus, when the assembly is imported into Solidworks just the pre-form model shows up with no additional features.

 

We would like to avoid sending them translated files and would prefer they do direct imports into Solidworks pulling data off Windchill ProjectLink. 

 

I was curious if anybody out there has experienced this problem before and might have recommendations on a fix.  I'm not sure if there is something that I can do on my end to fix this issue.

 

Thanks!

vault rehost

August 30, 2016, 9:42 am

I am preparing a rehost system to test WC11 migration on.

If I copy all of my vaults over to the rehost machine today and then on Friday when I do the LDAP and Oracle backups, I take the last vaults from each type and recopy them, should that be sufficient? I have 4 main vault structures with folders under them that are set to roll-over to a new folder when the current one reaches 50K files. In 2 of the vaults, there are less than 50K files, so only 1 subfolder is in use. In the part library vault, there are 2 folders, one RO, one RW. These are the easy ones to just copy while the Oracle backup is running. The last vault is working in folder 46, so over 2 million files out there. If I just copy the last folder over while Oracle is being backed up will that catch all of the latest changes to our design.

If my thinking is right, any new check-ins will create a new file in the latest folder and just the Oracle DB will be updated to the new pointers. Any files that become unreferenced along the way are also just marked as such in the DB until such time as they are removed.

 

I hope this strategy will work because it takes 3-4 hours to copy the main product folders.
