Windchill System Administrator's Guide

WebEx Setup Properties
To enable web-based meetings in the Meeting Center and to connect to the
WebEx server, add the following properties to the wt.properties file using the
xconfmanager.
Property Description
wt.meeting.centerUrl Specifies the URL for the WebEx server.
For example, http://ptc.webex.com
wt.meeting.partnerId Specifies the partner ID for the WebEx server.
For example, execute the following command from a windchill shell:
xconfmanager -s wt.meeting.centerUrl=
-s wt.meeting.partnerId=
-t /codebase/wt.properties -p
Where is the location where Windchill is installed.
To diagnose problems in setting up the connection to the WebEx server, set
wt.meeting.verbose to TRUE in the wt.properties file.
WebEx User Name and E-mail Address
When you host a meeting, the WebEx account used is based on your Windchill
user name. The account name is webex_.
Every WebEx account must have a unique e-mail address associated with it. Two
accounts cannot use the same e-mail address.
Proxy Server for Connection to WebEx Meeting Center
The WebEx server is always located outside the corporate firewall, and Windchill
servers are usually located inside the firewall. Your site may require the use of a
proxy server for HTTP connections through the firewall. To make it possible for
the Windchill server to connect to the Webex server, the
wt.manager.cmd.MethodServer entry in wt.properties must be modified to look
like the following example:
wt.manager.cmd.MethodServer=\
cmd.exe /C start "MethodServer" /MIN \
"$(wt.java.cmd)" -classpath "$(wt.java.classpath)" \
-Djava.protocol.handler.pkgs=HTTPClient \
-Dhttp.proxyHost=proxy.mycompany.com \
-Dhttp.proxyPort=8080 \
-Dhttp.nonProxyHosts=.mycompany.com \
-Xms32m -Xmx64m -Xnoclassgc –noverify
