Missing windchillconfigurator.xconf File
If you deleted the windchillconfigurator.xconf file from the <Windchill>/utilities/wca/conf directory, but did not remove the ConfigurationRef element from the site.xconf file, propagating changes by running the xconfmanager utility from the command line causes an error. The ConfigurationRef element names a nonexistent windchillconfigurator.xconf file. In this case, the xconfmanager utility fails with an error similar to the following:
ERROR: Unexpected error (stack trace below):

com.ptc.windchill.structconf.StructConfManagerException: Error scanning xconf files to determine property-to-xconf dependencies caused by: Error parsing file:<Windchill>/Windchill/site.xconf, line 357 (starting at root doc file: <Windchill>/Windchill/site.xconf) caused by: Unable to generate URL for href=<Windchill>/utilities/wca/conf/windchill/windchillconfigurator.xconf'.
To recover from this error, you can either remove the ConfigurationRef from site.xconf or recreate the windchillconfigurator.xconf file:
To remove the ConfigurationRef element, you can use a text editor to edit the site.xconf file or run the uninstallConfigRef target.
To recreate the windhcillconfigurator.xconf file, you can either use the installConfigRef target to create an empty windchillconfigurator.xconf file or run the configureWindchill target with the -Dpropagate=true argument.
The uninstallConfigRef and installConfigRef targets are described in Targets for the site.xconf ConfigurationRef Element.
