Change Request - Layout Change

$

Hi All,

     I have been working on implementing Change management (OOTB). As i progress, i was willing to know, if it is possible to change to ootb layout as per our old format of CR's.

 

Currently, we are using excel for creating CR's.

The current CR in excel contains data of "what parts are deleted / added / qty modified" in an assembly. See attached screen capture for reference.

 

Can some one help me out to tell if this is possible to do it in WC OOTB. .If so any guides would be greatly helpful

How to build a Remote Apache Webserver for Internet access to Windchill

$
0
0

Hi,

 

We currently have an internal user only Windchill PDMLink System and we now have a requirement to allow select customer users to securely access the system over the Internet. I intend to do this build building an additional Apache Server (Remote Apache Web Server) located in a secure DMZ on a hardened Linux server, with an updated Apache install.

 

For security reasons, I intend to build a minimal Redhat Linux server to host this Apache Server, but I know from previous experience that it can be difficult to install & administer such a system if you don't get the minimal OS build right in the first place - too few packages and nothing works, too many and it's a security risk.

 

Does anyone have any recommendations here - will the default Redhat Minimal Package Selection install be OK for what I need?

I would prefer not to install all the Redhat Graphical System environment for security reasons, but is it even possible to run the PTC installer(s) from the command line?

 

When it comes to Apache, is it best to manually "roll your own" Apache straight from apache.org and overlay the PTC Windchill Apache config and Ant installation onto it, or is it OK to use the (slightly older) "Early Release" version of Apache that is available for download from the PTC Website that already has the PTC Windchill Apache config applied to it and tested?

 

As I mentioned, I wanted as minimal a software Installation as possible on this server, so is it possible to just install Apache from the PTC supplied "Early Release" version of Apache, or do you need to first run the PSI that comes with the original Windchill release and install the original Apache (and I think Java might be necessary?), and then use the Apache "Early Release" download to replace the OOTB Apache version with the newer version?

 

Thanks in advance to anyone who might be able to answer some/all of my questions, and if anyone has any other sage advice on building a secure Internet facing Apache server for Windchill, then I would welcome the advice.

 

Regards.

Export Promotion Request as a Report

Are you able to export specified info from a Promotion Request as a report.

 

Ie, Process Name, Description, Promotion Objects. Promotion Status etc

 

I have created a tab with all the required info, but other than doing a screen-dump, im falling short.

 

It would be usefull to do this as to send this to external sources rather than type all the info out again.

 

Possibly as a DXF ( same kind of thing as when you can export search results) as a .csv???

 

Thanks

How to setup a Remote apache webserver when no access to the Windchill loadpoint

$
0
0

Hi,

 

I have previously sucessfully setup a Windchill 9.1 Remote Apache server located in a DMZ (for external Internet access) that had no access to the Windchill Server's application loadpoint.

 

I have just tried replicating this process for our 10.1 Windchill System and have found it does not seem to work in the same way.

 

All the PTC docs refer to the Remote Apache server being able to see the Windchill Application Loadpoint, but this is not possible for a machine located in a DMZ.

 

I have configured the remote apache server as per the PTC instructions and have created the dummy windchill directory stub on the apache server in the DMZ with a few of the necessary files that I knew about in 9.1, but this seems not to be adequate for 10.1.

 

I can get the Windchill Server Status page values returned in a browser, so I am pretty sure Tomcat is working through to the server, but no other pages render - does anyone have any information on how to do this?

 

Thanks and Regards

Windchill and AutoCAD External references

Hello everyone,

I am learning Windchill and I am looking for information on how to attach AutoCAD external references, the referenced file can be another dwg, a tif or a pdf, all of them are in Windchill, including the main file.

NOTE: I know how to do it in AutoCAD when the files are in a shared or local folder, I am looking for a procedure or documentation on how to do it when the files are in Windchill.

 

I would appreciate any help or link.

Windchill version: 10.1

 

Thank you,

Hi, I have to decide my workflow path depending on an attribute type, which is having a list of values, Each value will take a separate workflow after choosing it.

I am tried to execute the below code but some how not succesful.

For Routing Two options succesfully executed, while i am using the values in place of String_value its not working.

Soft Attribute Name = CustomerGroup, Dropdown values are HERO/FORD.

 

if (primaryBusinessObject != null)

{

try

{

com.ptc.core.lwc.server.PersistableAdapter obj = new com.ptc.core.lwc.server.PersistableAdapter(primaryBusinessObject,null, java.util.Locale.US, new com.ptc.core.meta.common.DisplayOperationIdentifier());

obj.load("CustomerGroup");

java.lang.String string_value = (java.lang.String) obj.get("CustomerGroup");

System.out.println("Soft attibute value : " + string_value);

if ( string_value == "HERO" )

{

result = "Route1";

}

else

if( string_value == "FORD" )

{

result="Route3";

}

else

result="Route2";

}

catch ( Exception e )

{

e.printStackTrace();

}

},

How does Version Series in Lifecycle Administration work?

Specifying Controls to 'Numeric Series' or 'Alpha Series' of WTPart or WTDocument etc., So that Users can Set-State, Read, Download, etc., in those Version series only.

Is this possible by Version Series Tab in Lifecycle Administration and How does this really work?

This is for all DTI users. Does anyone receive messages relating to user buffers?

$

I feel like we are alone with this issue, and it is quite frustrating.

We rolled out Windchill 10.2 F000 in March of 2014. We have ProjectLink & PDMLink. Our server is offsite, hosted on the cloud.

We have some document templates that have attributes mapped. In some cases, quite a few, ~100.

Our users receive this message frequently when working with these documents and the DTI;

"The supplied user buffer is not valid for the requested operation. dtiCommandComplete"

 

We have opened a few calls with TS, but this issue is not easy to replicate on a consistent basis. There does not seem to be a pattern we can find.

We suspected our proxy server was causing the traffic to be blocked, but we completely bypass the proxy server for this URL.

We have also upgraded to 10.2 M020, but the issue remains.

 

We have been living with this issue, but it's getting bad. Our management does not understand why we cannot get this feature to work properly. They state that it was a major selling point, and why would we continue to use this if it doesn't work as advertised.

Launch bom comparison

Hi,

 

I want to launch the comparison of 2 bom structures in the tab history in Windchill 9.1 (see screenshot). Does anyone have experience with this ?

This should be the case when clicking on a link in an email received by the reviewer.

If you have it for Windchill 10.2 then it is ok, we can wait until the update.

Regards,

Bernard
