Re: How to add a new folder to the class path read by Windchill

Thanks Binesh!

 

This is exactly the information I wanted!

 

I have now appended my own classpath to this property according to below:

<AddToProperty name="wt.java.classpath" value="$(path.sep)$(wt.webinf.lib)$(dir.sep)mycompanyfolder$(dir.sep)*"/>

 

Thanks and best regards,

Peter

Re: Was Windchill 11.0 M020 partially retracted?

We have posted some detail on the two downloads.  In short

 

Difference of the two download files available for "Windchill 11.0 M020 CPS02" on PTC.com Software Downloads

  • M020-CPS02 (highlighted in red) should be used by customers that want to newly install their Windchill 11.0 M020 CPS02. It replaces the the former PTC Windchill 11.0 Service Pack installation media that was removed from the download.
  • M020-CPS02-Bundle (highlighted in blue) should be used by customers that need to updated their existing production system of Windchill 11.0 M020 and M020 CPS01


Please note - we recommend doing a clean install with M020-CPS02 wherever possible.

Re: new context

I created a new ACEMPDocument under the WTDocument and the new product context created with no issues.

After looking at the Type Manager, I think they changed the naming and created sub-types under a different name.

I think I just copied the existing ACEMP Context template to NexGen. I should have exported the current active one to see what that would have looked like. I may do this and see if the ACEMPDocument is still referenced.

Windchill/PDMLink 10.1 Search Keyword operator (AND, OR) syntax

$

I know that the AND operator can just be used with caps and spaces (e.g. Electronics AND circuit), however the same syntax for OR is not working.  How do you search something like this:

Electronics AND circuit OR board

 

I know WC 11 can probably do this much easier, but I am asking for 10.1 because that is what we are on now and will be for a while.

This works for me - (rehosting AND pdmqa) OR pdm , returns all the files which has rehosting and pdmqa or the ones with pdm in it.. This works too - (rehosting && pdmqa) || pdm

Just to verify is the user search preference set to advanced

From the help files.

 

If you type in electronics;board (no spaces) it will return nothing.  Putting a space after the semicolon does have results.

Steve Galayda,

I get less results when I use the semicolon (without a space I get none, and with a space I get some but less).  So this tells me that the semicolon method is not working.

Binesh Kumar,

 

I just tried both of those methods and the first one using AND/OR gets less results with the OR part, and the second one using && and || returns a search syntax error.

 

I'll check on the advanced search option...

You are right, it was set to a simple search.  I also didn't realize that that setting, by default, is allowed to be change by the user.  So I set it and did one of the same searches again, using your syntax, and returned equal to or more results than without the OR.  The following example contains the syntax that I used with Advanced Search Preference on:

(rehosting OR pdmqa) AND (pdm OR Link)

 

Thank you for your help Binesh Kumar!

I also tried the || and && method and that works now too!

How to move Windchill on Windows server to Linux

Hi Windchill Gurus,

 

Our company has an old Windchill 9.1 running on Windows 2003 server, and we are planning to retire windows 2003 server soon, so we want to move it to Linux (RHL-2.6.32)

 

But I don't find any documents about rehost windchill from Windows to Linux.  BTW, all Oracle DBs are running on Solaris which will remain untouched.

 

I was hoping anyone from the community can give us some advice please.

 

Jerry

For this you have to follow an installation method of rehosting or else you will have find out all the folder structure references from Windows to Unix. On a high level these are the steps.

  1. Install Windchill 9.1 with same datecode, patch set and configuration as your original installation. I guess you will still be able to obtain CDs from PTC.Use a dummy Oracle database for this.
  2. Export the LDIF from Aphelion or Windchill DS(post 9.1 M030) and import it to Aphelion/WindchillDS installed in Linux.
  3. Copy the vaults directory to Linux.
  4. Run the ant -f rehost script, this will update the host name references in LDAP.(applicable only if you are updating the hostname)
cd Windchill/bin/adminTools/rehosting
ant “-Dtarget-ldap=ldap:// cn=manager:passwd@newservername.example.com/” –Dtarget-domain=newservername.example.com


 

  6. Update the db.properties to switch from dummy database to new database. wt.pom.dbHost, instance name, username, password and all.

  7. Then update the database reference to  new hostname

     Update Repository set lastKnownDomain='newservername.example.com' where local=1;

 

8. Given that all the above steps are done, you should be able to bring the server up. Now you can update the File vault settings from Vault server administrator.

Re: How to change the type of existing part.

I've just tried Sudeep Pai's code and it seems to work perfectly. Thank you!

I plan to use it with WTParts and prefer it over the SQL tool because it gives me better control over which part to change and which not.

 

Has anyone experience with this solution? Any side-effects to be aware of?

(Obviously lifecycle, attributes, versioning schema have to be taken into account, that's ok.)

How does same object trigger the workflow simultaneously twice.

I've been using this since long time. But you need to pay attention to two things:

- If the target type has less or different attributes set, you won't be able to remove them afterwards and you also will find them with solr. So you need to clean them before changing the type

- If you need the history you can change only the latest iteration or you also can change all iteration

Thanks for your answer!

- The first issue is no problem as I plan to move to a subtype anyway. So all IBAs on top level are there as well (plus more). But I have to move those IBAs to the sublevel afterwards as well. Which can be done by the TypeAttributeMoevTool by PTC. Thanks for the tip with SolR. Wouldn't have thought of that.

 

- Want to move all iterations. Will check the behavior, thanks.

Leading wildcards in global search *???

$
0
0

Our service department recently was searching for a vehicle VIN number in Windchill.  Lets say the VIN was 1HTGPSNR4HH542122 (an attribute, not name or number field), when this VIN was entered it returned nothing...what we found was that someone replaced the leading 1 with an I.  No biggy, was fixed immediately. BUT we realized a searching short coming.  The user tried leading ** to try and find the number, but couldn't. He searched:

 

*HTGPSNR4HH542122

**TGPSNR4HH542122

 

With no return.  Is there anyway to search and attribute with leading wildcards?

 

Thanks,

Greg
