Can't see custom object types in Webtop but I can in DA


When I try to create a new document in webtop 6.5 sp3 I do not see my cutom object types that I created and installed using composer.

I can however see my custom types in DA and I can create documents with those custom types in DA.

I can also see them in da in the "types" node.

I tried clearing tomcat cache under catalina and documentum cache under c:/documentum/cache.


Solution

  • Ok so I figured this out. The problem is due to the language. I realized it after noticing da is in english and webtop is in FR.

    Here is what I did to fix to the problem.

    Enabled french data dictionary in data_dictionary.ini. under documentum/dba/config Modified data_dictionary_fr under product/6.5/bin to LOCALE = en Ran the script: dmbasic -f dd_populate.ebs -e Entry_Point -- D:\Documentum\dba\config\\data_dictionary.ini Ran the dictionary job again restarted app server

    and now I can see my types.

    I'm not sure why this wasn't working ootb though and if all these manipulations were necessary.

    Anyway thanks all for your input!
