Hi,
we are using SW 2007, with PDMWorks Server, and both SW 2007x32and SW 2007 x64 clients.
On the 32bit clients all seems to be okay, but on the x64somefeatures don't seem to work.
If we open SW 2007, and select a drawing,n part or assemblyinMyVault, then select Document Information, and next tab View,thenthe first time the view is okay, next time the tabstaysgray/empty, and the third time SW crashes.
On that same view tab, when the assembly is shown, sometoolbarsare missing, like the 'measure' toolbar, even though'measure' isput as allowed in the Vault Admin program.
Those things work like they should in the 32bit version.
(We have tried reinstalling the 64bit machine, triedwithoutloading our own settings, tried the 64bit SP0.0, SP3.0,SP3.1,SP4.0, SP5.0 - all the same, it doesn't work)
This week, I have made a copy of our vault, installedPDMWorksServer 2008 on a test machine, and installed SW2008 x64 onthe samemachine, pointing to the copied vault.We had hoped thesethingswould work in 2008, but unfortunatly we still have thesameissues.
I was pretty sure it had nothing to do with our vault, sinceit isworking on x32, but since the 2008x64 machine has beeninstalledfrom scratch, has new software, the vault seems to be theonlycommon component.
So I'm not so sure now...
Now does anyone else have those problems as well?
Or is there someone with x64 clients connected to PDMWorksServerwho does *not* have this problem?
(or even better, a solution?
)
I would really like to find out if it is a bug, or somethingin oursetup.
Kind regards,Gert.SolidworksGeneral
