Creation of PDM customer workstation

Hello

When I try to update SoldWorks to create a client workstation for PDM, I can't check the box "SOLIDWORKS PDM Client" cf pj (whereas it's possible for my colleagues, who have done the migration).

Can you tell me how to fix the problem please?

Kind regards

Hello 

Is your PDM client under a separate license server?

I have 2 license servers, one for PDM with a server A and a server B for solidworks composer etc 

So when I install I do it in 2 times. First the customer PDM

and then the solidworks suite.

 

Maybe simply because your installation file doesn't contain EPDM?

It is possible to generate customized installation files via an administrative image. This allows you to have a much lighter installation file but it is incomplete.

If you have the full SW sources, PDM is located in the SWPDMClient and SWPDMServer directories.

 

My procedure:

Uninstalling PDM Client
Uninstalling Solidworks
Restart
Installation Solidworks
Restart
Installation PDM Client
Restart

All this while disabling antivirus/antimalware/firewall from time to time
