Although access to the online documentation might work on other HTML browsers, incidents specific to other browsers than above mentioned products are not eligible for support.

Accessing the documentation installed on a server from an AIX computer requires to provide the "connect" permission to this server in the /usr/java5/jre/lib/security/java.policy file on the AIX computer.

For instance, add the following statement in the java.policy file:

permission java.net.SocketPermission “10.242.10.14:80-“, “connect”;

if "10.242.10.14" is the IP address of the server.

Documentation search applet

When running a search in the documentation on AIX 5.3 TL 05 SP3, Mozilla level 1.7.12, you should use the Java plugin 1.4.2.

If you use the Japanese or the Chinese language, you can use the Java plugin 1.5.

When running a search in the documentation, you should use Mozilla 1.6 with the plugin 1.5.0.10_01_oct_2007_14_41.

On-line Documentation Installation

Use the following link to consult the official installation documentation:

Installing the On-line Documentation

When installing the CATIA or ENOVIA DMU online documentation, the MULTICAx products documentation are always installed.

Accessing Online Documentation Using Internet Explorer on Windows XP Professional x64  Edition and 32-bit Windows XP SP2

When you open the online documentation homepage, the homepage looks like this:

The default security setting displayed in the information bar disables active content.

To display the documentation homepage correctly, click OK, then click the information bar and select the option "Allow Blocked Content...", then click Yes when prompted. The homepage will then be displayed correctly.

Searching Online Documentation

Because of a regression in the Java plug-in's islnNet function version 1.6.14 (not fixed yet in 1.6.19, see http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6789865 for more information), proxy automation configuration scripts using this function might not work. If these scripts are used to configure connections, the Java applet used for the Search functionality does not work (the following message is displayed in the Java console: "java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.dassault_systemes.doc.search.SearchApplet.class").

Workaround: Use an explicit proxy server in the Network Settings Java control panel (bypassed for local addresses).
