Submit Form was working and now does not

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 35

I've had an app running fine for about a month.  The submit form is no longer working.  The data source is a sharepoint list and the contents of OnSelect is simply "SubmitForm(Form1)" .  In the monitor I get the following (Rows 7-10), but no idea what to make of it.  Any ideas?

    @lowpaws 

    SubmitForm(Form1) code is in a button? What happens when you press it?

    Is your submit onselect not attached to a button? because I don't believe any of the log messages shown are button presses.

     

    Button press should show up like this

    Yes, it's actually a save icon if that matters.  It gives a red bar at the top of the screen that says 'Unknown Error'  (when I test it in edit).  When the end user click the save icon, it just doesn't do anything.

    Have you recently made any changes to the sharepoint list? If so you should remove the data source and completely re-add it. otherwise can you click the red x that says unknown and select show in formula bar and show us the code that is throwing the error.

    I haven't made in changes to the SP list.  I suppose it is possible somebody else did, but unlikely...  This is what I get after closing the error message:

    there any markers, exclamation, x etc. showing up on your form?

    No, everything looks happy / normal until I click on the save icon.  Do you think copying the SP list with a new name  and then swapping out data sources might work?

    I wouldn't make that the first thing I tried. 

     

    First I would go to view data sources, click remove on the sharepoint list one, then click add source and re-add the same list.

     

    My second step, if I was 100% confident my form was completely set up properly, would be to recreate the form and hide original and see if that worked. 

     

    If re-adding the sharepoint source, then recreating the form both do not correct the issue then you have something coded wrong in the form.

    Ok, thank you again for the help.  I'd definitely think I coded something wrong (rookie), but its worked for some time...  Also, one more thing that is bizarre.  When I connect to monitor and do nothing but click the icon for submit form, monitor returns a reference in the control column to a combo box on another page / form.

    Are you sure you have the monitor sorted by newest action to oldest? sometimes for some reason the oldest actions end up on top and you can think you are looking at one thing, and be looking at something else entirely.

     

    If we are sure that is your most recent action and not reverse maybe sit there pressing it over and over for a bit while refreshing. If it keeps adding more and more of those references then you have a good idea where to start looking. If it is only the one time and then no more it's likely something that happened before you pressed the button, sometimes if you have that error clicking the icon won't even trigger it's onselect because it's so broken that it won't even get to that step. Kind of like if there's a single error in your coding of a gallery's datasource, it won't show a partial gallery just leaves it out entirely.
