Validating the SolidWorks Configuration
Validate your configuration by following the next steps:
1. After exiting from sw2pv_config, verify that the following files are now located in the <setup_directory> specified earlier:
a. sw2pv_config.log—Log file created by the tool during the configuration process. See this log file for details on any configuration issues.
b. adapter.pvi—Lets you determine whether a directory has a configuration and for which adapter. Windows users can double-click this file to open the configuration tool for an adapter, with the appropriate data filled in.
c. debug_options.txt—Provides extra command line options to the adapter when it has to run in verbose (debug) mode. When the option to Start verbose workers is enabled in the Worker Agent Administration window, any worker that is started from this window will include options specified in this debug options file.
For details on the command line options, refer to the chapter titled Advanced Adapter Configurations for your adapter type.
e. swbatch.bat—Command line publishing script. Review
Using swbatch for instructions for using this script.
f. swpublish.bat—Interactive publishing script. Review
Using swpublish for instructions for using this script.
g. swworker.bat—Server controlled publishing script. Review
Using swworker for instructions for using this script.
h. purge.bat—Removes all log files generated by the adapter from the <setup_directory>.
2. You can verify each component of your configuration is working correctly by the following methods:
a. Follow the instructions in
Interactive Publishing to use swpublish. Successful interactive publishing confirms your SolidWorks environment supports swpublish.
b. Follow the instructions in
Command Line Publishing to use swbatch. Successful batch publishing from the command line means the environment of your configuration supports command line publishing.
