Shreyas

The xml you're using is supposed to add existing user to existing group. So you're probably getting the error because you have no 'ast' user and/or have no 'Authors' group in the container you're trying to load data (Site level in your case, since you're not using the -CONT_PATH)

To just create a group, use the following:

<nmloader>
<csvgroup handler="wt.load.LoadUser.createGroup">
<csvuser></csvuser>
<csvgroupname>TestGroup</csvgroupname>
<csvdescription>TestDataLoadGroup</csvdescription>
</csvgroup>
</nmloader>

thanks Dmitry,

Now I m able to create group, but how to add existing user to group I am using

<csvuser></csvuser>
<csvgroupname>TestGroup</csvgroupname>
<csvdescription>TestDataLoadGroup</csvdescription>
<csvusername>approver1</csvusername>
</csvgroup>
</nmloader>

it gives error

C:\ptc\Windchill_9\Windchill\loadFiles>windchill wt.load.LoadFromFile -d groups.xml -u wcadmin -p wcadmin -CONT_PATH \"/wt.inf.container.OrgContainer=Royal"

Error in XML input file Error loading data from file.

data file = <groups.xml,c:\ptc\windchill_9\windchill\loadfiles\cust\groups.xml>

map file = <null,null>

token separator = <null,null>

method = <null,create>

user = <null>

Command line = <{CONT_PATH=/wt.inf.container.OrgContainer=Royal}>

Error in XML input file

Approver1 is existing user in Royal org,what I am missing?

Try createGroupGroup example of usage in sample load files.

Everything you need to know is in the example xml load files, just open them up and you'll figure this out in no time.

Sheyas,

Try this for loading users into groups.

<csvusergroup handler="wt.load.LoadUser.createUserGroup">
<csvuser></csvuser>
<csvgroupname>PDMLink Users</csvgroupname>
<csvusername>cd03882</csvusername>
<csvdirectoryservice></csvdirectoryservice>
</csvusergroup>

This is what I used to load users into groups.

Shreyas, use

<nmloader>
<csvusergroup handler="wt.load.LoadUser.createUserGroup">
<csvuser></csvuser>
<csvgroupname>TestGroup</csvgroupname>
<csvusername>approver1</csvusername>
</csvusergroup>
</nmloader>

to add existing user to existing group.

Also, since you're using -CONT_PATH \"/wt.inf.container.OrgContainer=Royal" when adding approver1 to the group TestGroup, make sure you have the group created in the Royal org, not on the Site level.

Hi All,

I'm trying to load and existing user to an existing group using the LoadFrom File utility and i'm getting an error

G:\PTC\Windchill_10.0\Windchill\loadFiles>windchill wt.load.LoadFromFile -d C:\Kiran\User_List\05-16-2013\testgroup.xml
Error detected in createUserGroup <emp00264 norma_applications_engineers=">
Loader method wt.load.LoadUser.createUserGroup reported a failure
No objects were imported due to the error.
Unexpected problem in export/import process.
Nested exception is: wt.util.WTException: Loader method wt.load.LoadUser.createUserGroup reported a failure Error loading data from file.
data file = <c:\kiran\user_list\05-16-2013\testgroup.xml,c:\kiran\user_list\05-16-2013\testgroup.xml>
map file = <null,null>
token separator = <null,null>
method = <null,create>
user = <null>
Command line = <{}>
Unexpected problem in export/import process.
Nested exception is: wt.util.WTException: Loader method wt.load.LoadUser.createUserGroup reported a failure

This is my xml file.

<nmloader>

<csvusergroup handler="wt.load.LoadUser.createUserGroup">
<csvuser></csvuser>
<csvgroupname>NORMA_Applications_Engineers</csvgroupname>
<csvusername>emp00264</csvusername>
<csvdirectoryservice></csvdirectoryservice>
</csvusergroup>

</nmloader>

Any suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks,

Leave out the csvDirectoryService?
When I loaded existing users into existing groups I used the following format for csvUserGroup

<csvusergroup handler="wt.load.LoadUser.createUserGroup">
<csvuser></csvuser>
<csvgroupname>Corporate</csvgroupname>
<csvusername>dougjone</csvusername>
</csvusergroup>
