Description

  • If the user moves over the links on Resource Center web page, Creo Parametric hangs when accessing the active Workspace after logging into Windchill PDMLink
    • This happens when the authentication is required directly on startup because config.pro contains options requiring Windchill access: wtpub://<SERVER-ALIAS>/...
  • The issue is randomly observed but quite frequently
    • There seems to be a specific time frame or a particular speed range to click the active Workspace icon after logging into Windchill, to run into this issue
  • This happens independent of whether resource center is being displayed in separate window or in embedded browser - i.e., when the option Do not show window again. Display the Resource Center in the Creo Browser when launching was checked in Resource Center window previously

  • Creo Parametric remains non responding and needs to be terminated and restarted

  • Popup of request to authenticate several ti;e using IE
