File Structure Changes
For upgrade installations from releases of PTC FlexPLM before PTC FlexPLM 9.0, the file system structure has the following changes:
• The web-root folder has moved from <Windchill> to <Windchill>/codebase, and has been renamed rfa.
|
You are not required to change the custom.*.properties files defined in codebase/com/lcs/wc/client/*. They resolve themselves correctly after customizations are in place in the new locations. You must review customizations in depth to ensure compatibility with PTC FlexPLM 9.0 and later releases.
|
• The images folder has moved from <Windchill> to <Windchill>/codebase.
• The PTC HTTP Server configuration has changed, and old conf files no longer work. You are not required to make edits, other than the inclusion of the template file.
• The Embedded Servlet Engine configuration has been eliminated.
• Load files and database setup have changed to use Windchill PDMLink containers and libraries.
• The PTC FlexPLM URL has changed from http://<hostname>/LCSW* to http://<hostname>/Windchill/rfa*.
