note The full stack trace of the root cause is available in the Apache Tomcat/5.5.26 logs.





Server is showing as online and no problems but get that error every time I goto my workspace. When trying to open parts the old fashioned way with the open icon I get a *cannot retrieve model* error. From what I've read so far I have pretty much lost 16 hours worth the work because windchill blows.


Anyone get this before and if so how did you go about recovering your work if it is even possible?

Over on the PTC/User Forums, Rod Thellen has created a software tool for recovering corrupt workspaces. From the reports, it appears to work for most people on both WC 8.0 or 9.0...


You need a PTC/User account to get at it, but here is a link to the message thread: [url]http://portal.ptcuser.org/p/fo/st/post=70909&anc=p70909# p70909[/url]
