Do you have security labels enabled? That would limit access on a document level.

Re: Creo View in Chrome browser
Open in Creo View Action (Plug-in vs. Creo View Agent Support)
Finish button in Change Request creation wizard does not appear
Need help here.
We are currently using Windchill PDMLink v10.2 M030-CPS21 and have encountered an issue that appears to be happening more and more often.
During creation of a Change Request and performing Steps 1-3 in the Creation wizard, the Finish button does not activate. The only recourse by the user is to Cancel the CR wizard and start over. This happens about 20% of the time, but seems to be coming more prevalent. Has anyone else seen this phenomenon?
We are currently running Java 8 update 45
Thanks,

Re: How do I grant read access to just one specific folder?
For read-only access you can move your particular user to Guest role.
Re: Login failed for user, Failed to acquire JDBC connection
May be you need to restore your SQL Server user.
SQL for example
USE "wcadmin"
EXEC sp_change_users_login Auto_Fix, 'wcadmin', NULL, 'YOUR_PASSWORD'
go
Re: Anyone used Rehost Utility 3.0 and do you have documentation, instead of using PTC documentation? Thanks,
We are a bit late to answer the original question but we succeeded rehosting a Windchill 11 instance by using PTC Rehosting Utility 3.0 M010. We used the tool to change the full URL, including also the web app name. So, where is our lobster dinner? ;-P
Re: How do I grant read access to just one specific folder?
Thanks for the link!
I used the procedure now my user is able to "find" the objects in this folder.
They're still unable to browse to it, but that's OK.
Re: Creo View in Chrome browser
Creo View does not work in Chrome browser. Chrome has disabled all plug-ins for the browser due to security purposes. This is why PTC is going to WebGL for the visual instead of needing a plugin.
We have to use IE 11 to use Creo View.
Also for your shrinkwraps, you probably can't see them because they are not a solid. In Creo View it only views solids with the default settings. If you want to see the surfaces you must enable the option:
Re: Creo View Adapter for SolidWorks Plots Upside Down
Still fooling with using Winline to create HPGL PLT files with inconsistent results.
I can manually print from Solidworks to the Winline printer with perfect results. The PLT file looks exactly like PDF output from Solidworks. Amazing!
However, whenever I publish using the Worker process on the same computer using the same files, the pen line widths settings in Winline are ignored. I suspect it could be that System Account that runs the GS Worker Demon is not able to use the printer settings the way a regular account can. Anyone with thoughts on this?
Access to Workspace from a different user
Hallo zusammen,
folgende Fragestellung an das Forum. Vorab, wir arbeiten mit Creo Direct Modeling und dem Windchill Workgroupmanager 10.2 M030-CPS18 auf dem Client und serverseitig mit CPS22.
Ist es in PTC Windchill 10.2 als Admin möglich irgendwie an die Daten eines Users in seinem persönlichen Workspace zu kommen um diese Einzuchecken?
Kurze Beschreibung des Falles:
Ein User ist erkrankt und hat neu angelegte Daten in seinem persönlichen Workspace, diese sind zwar in den Commonspace hochgeladen und für mich als Admin ersichtlich, aber nicht eingecheckt. Nun sollte ich die Daten irgendwie "frei" bekommen, dass ein anderer User diese weiterbearbeiten kann. Neuanlage geht nicht, der Artikel ist bereits im System vorhanden und beim Einchecken bemerkt das System, dass im Commonspace eines Users Modell und Zeichnung bereits vorhanden sind, und bringt eine Fehlermeldung. Des weiteren möchten wir den aktuellen Stand nicht einfach nochmals erarbeiten.
Lösungen unter Übernahme des Useraccounts mittels Adminrechten / Zurücksetzen seines Passwortes sind aus datenschutzrechtlichen Gründen nicht erwünscht.
Vielleicht gibt es ja Windchill-Erfahrene die eine Idee hätten? Ansonsten sehe ich das als eklatanten Mangel des Systems an?
How Document checkout Works in the Windchill.
Suppose if checkout the document how to I edit the Document and Checkin. And also Checkin its tells us to upload the file from local drive.
Re: Allow Creator to Modify the Participants of a Promotion Request
Mike,
Thanks for the quick reply.
I've enabled this permission but where exactly would the user be able to modify the participants on the Promotion Request?
I've checked the Promotion Request>Process>Members section and a user cannot modify:
Where would a user be able to modify the Promotion Participants?
I'd like for Tony Tester to be able to add another user to the EGApprover role.
Thanks again.
How to define an access policy to a role so that he can have only access to Print and View WTObject?
I have to Create a role and set accesses policy as they can only have access to view and take print of WTObject (WTDocument, EPMDocument)
What are the Acess Policy for NC Programmer Role?
How to Set Acess Policy for NC Programmer role so that they can only View the Released Design Part Documents(EPM Document) and able to Create, Modify, NC Machining File(Manufacturing File) in In Work State.?
Re: How Document checkout Works in the Windchill.
WTDocument checkout / in is fundamentally different from CAD Document checkout / in.
CAD creates relationships between files (e.g.assy <> component and drawing <> component or assy). For this reason, filenames need to be constant.
For WTDocuments (non-CAD), think of the "document" as a container for a file (actually one or more files if attachments are used). The contents of the container are replaced with each checkin. You can in fact create a WTDocument with a Word file, then on check out, replace it with an Excel file.
Re: What are the Acess Policy for NC Programmer Role?
They should have Read-only rights to the released engineering documents in the product folders.
They should create their own assembly file in a manufacturing folder and use that for all NC programming tasks.
Re: Creo View Adapter for SolidWorks Plots Upside Down
If the PTC Product manager(s) for WVS publishing of SolidWorks are looking at this thread, we would very much appreciate a chat w/you directly on this topic.
One overall goal is to be able to publish all CAD to .plt, and then to be able to use Creo View drawing compare universally.
thanks

Windchill Rehost Utility 3
Could someone please either upload or give a link to their Windchill Rehost Utility 3 or whichever is the current release?
Trying to rehost from one machine to another.
We have PDM Essentials and the documentation calls out to go login and go to the downloads page but it doesn't exist there. Even had a help ticket open for 2 weeks but they were never able to help.
