    This just started happening: During login to Teamcenter Navigator, the following FILE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM error message appears: "File Client Cache Is Not Enabled", which I OK. After I launch NX, these messages pop up: 1) "Error detected during FMS initialization. The FCC client was unable to...

    Deformable Part problem

    I have defined a deformable part, which I am trying to deform in an assembly context four assy levels above the part model. However, when I try to do this, I get the error message: "Unable to deform because deformed parents of component exists" Can anyone tell me what exactly this means, and...

    Export to STEP problem

    Nothing has worked, Anthony. I set UGII_LOAD_OPTIONS using Control Panel, and also added the full pathname for load_options.def to the \UGII\ugii_env.dat file. Nada! Thanks again for trying. I guess I'll put up with it until we upgrade to NX7. Thomas L. Clark Teledyne Relays

    Export to STEP problem

    Anthony, The first solution had no effect. (I tried using both Load As Saved and Search Directories for UGI_LOAD_OPTION.) Concerning the second idea: I can set the UGII_LOAD_OPTIONS variable using Control Panel>System>Advanced>Environment Variables>New, yes? What do I type in for the value, the...

    Export to STEP problem

    Thanks for your replies, Anthony. Neither of your suggestions has worked for me. I am attaching a ZIP file containing the latest error log, the modified def file I used, as well as a screen capture of my NX Assembly Load options. So far, the only method that works is: 1) Use the original def...

    Export to STEP problem

    I am using NX5 in native mode. The File>Eport>STEP203 command fails to produce a correct .stp file. Apparently it can no longer find the source component files of my assembly. I set search folders in NX long ago using File>Options>Assembly Load Options... and recently checked them. Assemblies...

    I-DEAS PDF Printer problems

    I have I-deas 12NX (Artisan). Used to be able to generate PDF file using I-DEAS PDF Printer as printer selection. For some reason, I always had to launch Adobe Acrobat Distiller first (AcroDist.exe), with PrintOptimized as Job Option selection. Recently, this stopped working. The print job...

    Cannot open Teamcenter data server

    All right, here is the second file, third will follow. Better? I wish we were on GTAC, that decision was not mine to make. I rather doubt anyone there will "feel sorry" for me, but I will try that if no one can help me through the forum.

    Teamcenter able to control any file format?

    Dumb question regarding Teamcenter: If we have various kinds of cad files other than NX (such as Autocad dwgs or SolidWorks models) that require revision control, can Teamcenter be configured to manage them effectively? -thomasleeclark

    NX Define Deformable Part is killing me

    I cannot seem to get Deformable Parts to work. After defining the part with deformable features in Modeling, when I go to the assembly and attempt to Deform it, I get ALL KINDS of grief, such as: "An attempt was made to associate an object with a second other part" (???), and this...

    How import NX assembly into Teamcenter

    When I try to import an existing NX assembly into a new .prt model file, it says this may not be done. You kidding me??? A NATIVE NX assembly and component model files cannot be brought from a remote directory into a Teamcenter-launched session of NX5? That can't be right. Help - thomasleeclark
