I'm a little stuck with setting up and configuring our LDAP server that is remote to our Windchill DB. First of all, our LDAP server is maintained and run by a 3rd party IT team who we can make requests to modify it but I'm not sure what I need to ask. When installing PDMlink, we are running into the following error: "Cannot Bind to Port, Make sure it is Available *LDAP Server Port Number:" (see attached). We are using the standard 389 default port. Is this something they will have to enable? What other requirements should I send to them for configuration?

Re: Why PTC decided to not enable these features also on 10.2 version?
I do love the ThingWorx Platform but I agree with all of you. PTC has big platform changes ahead and this won't be easy, otherwise the Windchill platform will slowly get dusty...

Re: Why PTC decided to not enable these features also on 10.2 version?
yes ... IoTs is one thing ... getting informations from "real" objects can have application in Industry ... lot of uses cases for MES system can be IoTs ...
but Thingworx is also a Platform ....
after the first PTC navigate Apps ... just smell like Windchill 12 or 1x will be with a new UI green and blue ....
Lot of UI custos to rewrite , like upgrades from Foundation 6.2.6 to PDMlink 9.1 to 10.2 .... :-)

Remove ootb document attributes constraint
Hi Guys,
I want to remove the OOTB String Length constraint for the Document Type (actually I would need that the maximum length accepted to be on 40 char instead of 160). Is this possible?
How can it be done?
Thanks,
Alex

Re: Remove ootb document attributes constraint
you can add new string length constraint to limit name to 40 chars
Thanks

Re: Remove ootb document attributes constraint
Hi Shreyas,
That is true and valid when you give the name yourself. The problem appears when you add a primary content source with the name larger than 40 char. Windchill will accept the name even if you set the constraint to 40 char.
Thanks,
Alex

Re: Remove ootb document attributes constraint
Do you want to restrict fileName/Primary content name to <40 chars ?
Thanks

Re: Remove ootb document attributes constraint
Is it possible? I guess that is a solution also.

Re: How do you decide what business processes belong in Windchill?
Do you have any kind of process mapping standard guideline in place?

Re: Windchill 10.2 Cluster with 2 masters and 1 slave
Thanks for the detailed answer, Chris. I believe we may also need to exclude the slave node running background queues (with no foreground Method server running) from the load balancer so that the user requests- http/https are not forwarded to it?

List of all disabled/expired user account
Is There a way to generete a report or a list of all windchill users which have the account disabled or expired?
Does this list be retrived from windchill or from WindchillDS?
I try to do a report listing the user "Disabled", but this is not what I need; I need all the user in the LDAP with the account disabled or expired.
Does anyone know how can I have this information?
Thanks in advance

Re: RE: Released >> Superseded??
Patrick,
How do you set the Affected data to Released-History?
I assume you use "change" in the lifecycle to set the Resulting Items to Released on the higher version?

Internet Explorer 11 opens about:blank
When using Internet Explorer 11 on Windows 7 to browse Windchill 11, whenever an action is performed that usually opens in a new window, an extra window 'about:blank' is opened. Any way of getting rid of this without switching to an alternative web-browser? Some customers simply 'demand' the use of internet explorer.

Provided you have an account on PTC's site then you can go here for all the documents. There is a What's New in the drop-down box.

Usually a single generation change in software versions for major software run hundreds of pages. You are looking at 2 generations.

Re: Using LoadFromFile to bulk load documents
I know this is old but the answers didn't really explain it to me. I found out by experiment that you can load secondary content with the <csvContentFile> node. I actually use the CSVtoXML facility so my CSV looks like (an example)
#BeginWTDocument,name,title,number,type,description,department,saveIn,teamTemplate,domain,lifecycletemplate,lifecyclestate,typedef,version,iteration,securityLabels
BeginWTDocument,Process Requirements - Coarse Grinding at Point Henry,Process Requirements - Coarse Grinding at Point Henry,229TA001,Document,Process Requirements - Coarse Grinding at Point Henry,DESIGN,/Default/126 Process Plant - Point Henry/229 Coarse Grinding Plant/229 Technical Documents Coarse Grinding Plant/229TA - Technical Requirements Documents Coarse Grinding Plant,,,Regain Life Cycle,RELEASED,local.rs.vsrs05.Regain.TA,B,1,
#EndWTDocument,primarycontenttype,path,format,contdesc,parentContainerPath,,,,,,,,,,
EndWTDocument,ApplicationData,c:\temp\WTDocContent\229TA001-Process-Requirements-Coarse-Grinding-Plant-PH-vB 1.docx,,Finalized Document
#ContentFile,user,path
ContentFile,,c:\temp\WTDocContent\229TA001-Process-Requirements-Coarse-Grinding-Plant-PH-vB 1.pdf
Which generates XML
<NmLoader>
<csvBeginWTDocument handler="wt.doc.LoadDoc.beginCreateWTDocument" >
<csvname>Process Requirements - Coarse Grinding at Point Henry</csvname>
<csvtitle>Process Requirements - Coarse Grinding at Point Henry</csvtitle>
<csvnumber>229TA001</csvnumber>
<csvtype>Document</csvtype>
<csvdescription>Process Requirements - Coarse Grinding at Point Henry</csvdescription>
<csvdepartment>DESIGN</csvdepartment>
<csvsaveIn>/Default/126 Process Plant - Point Henry/229 Coarse Grinding Plant/229 Technical Documents Coarse Grinding Plant/229TA - Technical Requirements Documents Coarse Grinding Plant</csvsaveIn>
<csvteamTemplate></csvteamTemplate>
<csvdomain></csvdomain>
<csvlifecycletemplate>Regain Life Cycle</csvlifecycletemplate>
<csvlifecyclestate>RELEASED</csvlifecyclestate>
<csvtypedef>local.rs.vsrs05.Regain.TA</csvtypedef>
<csvversion>B</csvversion>
<csviteration>1</csviteration>
<csvsecurityLabels></csvsecurityLabels>
</csvBeginWTDocument>
<csvEndWTDocument handler="wt.doc.LoadDoc.endCreateWTDocument" >
<csvprimarycontenttype>ApplicationData</csvprimarycontenttype>
<csvpath>c:\temp\WTDocContent\229TA001-Process-Requirements-Coarse-Grinding-Plant-PH-vB 1.docx</csvpath>
<csvformat></csvformat>
<csvcontdesc>Finalized Document</csvcontdesc>
<csvparentContainerPath></csvparentContainerPath>
</csvEndWTDocument>
<csvContentFile handler="wt.load.LoadContent.createContentFile" >
<csvuser></csvuser>
<csvpath>c:\temp\WTDocContent\229TA001-Process-Requirements-Coarse-Grinding-Plant-PH-vB 1.pdf</csvpath>
</csvContentFile>
</NmLoader>
The first node creates the WTDocument of subtype local.rs.vsrs05.Regain.TA in our case. The next node attaches the primary content, which is a docx document in our case and the final node creates the secondary content the pdf in our case
The bulk load examples provided by PTC do not really point out that the node <csvEndWTDocument handler="wt.doc.LoadDoc.endCreateWTDocument" > creates the primary and the node <csvContentFile handler="wt.load.LoadContent.createContentFile" > the secondary. I interpreted that you required both nodes for a single primary content (which I now realise was a mistake). It certainly was not clear to me from this article Bulk Loading Documents in Windchill but now that I know it does actually contain all that you require.
