Steps you must take when updating or upgrading Windchill with Windchill Classification.
Integrating Windchill Classification with Microsoft Windows Server Internet Information Services (IIS)
Integrating Windchill Classification with Microsoft Windows Server Internet Information Services (IIS) requires Windchill Classification runtime configurations. The required steps for index search runtime configuration are similar to Windchill Classification runtime configuration.
For more information, see Configuring IIS and Windchill.
Loading a Demo Classification Structure
On a fresh server, you can load the demo classification as it is, as a starting point, or you can update the demo classification and use it to create your own classification structure.
The demo classification is provided only as a sample classification and is not loaded automatically as part of the Windchill Classification installation. To load the demo classification, complete the following steps:
1. Open the following load file in a text editor:
<Windchill>\loadFiles\partslink\demoClf\DemoClassification_nodes.xml
2. Update the file path in the <csvcontentRoot> element to point to the directory where your Windchill solution is installed.
For example, if your Windchill solution is installed on the J drive in a directory named “Windchill”:
<csvContentRoot handler="com.ptc.core.lwc.server.TypeDefinitionLoader.getContentRoot">
<csvcontentRoot>J:/Windchill/loadFiles/partslink/demoClf/attachments/</csvcontentRoot>
<!--TODO: Update above csvContentRoot path before actual load-->
</csvContentRoot>
3. Load the following files in the order specified:
<Windchill>\loadFiles\partslink\demoClf\DemoClassification_QOM.xml
<Windchill>\loadFiles\partslink\demoClf\DemoClassification_attributes.xml
<Windchill>\loadFiles\partslink\demoClf\DemoClassification_nodes.xml
For example:
windchill wt.load.LoadFromFile -d <Windchill>\loadFiles\partslink\demoClf\DemoClassification_QOM.xml -u <username> -p <password>
windchill wt.load.LoadFromFile -d <Windchill>\loadFiles\partslink\demoClf\DemoClassification_attributes.xml -u <username> -p <password>
windchill wt.load.LoadFromFile -d <Windchill>\loadFiles\partslink\demoClf\DemoClassification_nodes.xml -u <username> -p <password>
For more information on working with load files, see Introduction to Data Loading and the LoadFromFile Framework.
