Configuring an Adobe Experience Manager Server
To configure Windchill Visualization Services with an Adobe Experience Manager server, make the following property changes on the Master Site, either with the xconfmanager command, or by manually editing the <Windchill>/site.xconf file, and then propagating the file with xconfmanager -p
|
|
• The Adobe Experience Manager server is configured using two WVS properties, edrload.livecycle.assembler.serviceurl and edrload.livecycle.assembler.credentialalias. See Windchill Visualization Service Properties for a complete description of these and other wvs.properties files.
• Beginning at Windchill 10.2, PTC has changed the location of the wvs.properties and wvs.properties.xconf files. These files have been moved from the <Windchill>/codebase directory to the <Windchill>/codebase/WEB-INF/conf directory. Be sure to make any necessary changes to your code to reflect this location change.

1. Set the property value as follows:
◦ If using the xconfmanager command, set the value as:
xconfmanager -t <Windchill>/codebase/WEB-INF/conf/wvs.properties -s “edrload.livecycle.assembler.serviceurl= http://your_adobe_livecycle_server_host_name/soap/services/AssemblerService”
◦ If editing the site.xconf file manually, add the value:
<Property name="edrload.livecycle.assembler.serviceurl" overridable="true" targetFile="codebase/WEB-INF/conf/wvs.properties"
value="your_adobe_livecycle_server_host_name/soap/services/AssemblerService"/>
2. Optional- Configure a credential alias used to apply Acrobat Reader extensions to a PDF.
◦ If using the xconfmanager command, set the value as:
xconfmanager -t <Windchill>/codebase/WEB-INF/conf/wvs.properties -s “edrload.livecycle.
assembler.credentialalias=your_credential_alias_name”
◦ If editing the site.xconf file manually, add the value:
<Property name="edrload.livecycle.assembler.credentialalias" overridable="true" targetFile="codebase/WEB-INF/conf/wvs.properties" value=your_credential_alias_name”/>
3. Create a file called livecycleauth.properties and add the username and password that is used for authenticating with the Adobe Experience Manager server. WVS looks for this properties file in the default directory <Windchill>; however an administrator can specify a different location by setting a different directory location using the WVS property edrload.livecycle.authfile. The contents of the livecycleauth.properties file must be:
auth=<livecycle_username>:<livecycle_password>
◦ To specify a different location for the livecycleauth.properties file, if using the xconfmanager command, set the value as:
xconfmanager -t <Windchill>/codebase/WEB-INF/conf/wvs.properties -s
“edrload.livecycle.authfile=full_directory_path_location”
◦ To specify a different location for the livecycleauth.properties file, if editing the site.xconf file manually, add the value:
<Property name="edrload.livecycle.authfile" overridable="true" targetFile="codebase/WEB-INF/conf/wvs.properties" value="full_directory_path_location"/>
