Posted on by Microsoft Employee

The Apps works in Studio/Web/Tablet. I edited it wihout problems yesterday (before the last Powerapps version update)  but now, when I try to edit in the Studio App (Windows) it shuts down without error messages and when I try in Browser (Edge in private mode; cookies, passwords... deleted) I obtain the following error:

 

WebAuthoring abnormal termination.

    Hi Obanuelos,

     

    What’s your OS? What’s the data source of your app? Do you get the same issue when you create a new app?

     

    I am running PowerApps on Windows 10, PowerApps version 2.0.630.


    Both on desktop studio and Web player, I can open apps without any issues. And all the apps are working fine on my side.

     

    I assume this should be a temporary issue, please try again on your side.


    If you are still getting this issue, please feel free reply.


    Best regards,
    Mabel Mao

    Hi Mabel

    Thanks for your reply. PowerApps on Windows 10 and PowerApps version 2.0.630 too. New apps and other previous apps do not show any problem. All my apps, including the "blocked" app,  are conected to local sharepoint lists via a gateway, and to Office 365 outlook. I was modifying a flow (authorization by Email, edition of sharepoint elements...) and including a Launch function to open other app when I realized the problem. I have disabled the flow, the Launch function, I have tried to edit it using other user credentials (App shared with edit permission) but the issue still present. 

    regards

    Thank you for this, we are investigating. The problem wasnt immediately obvious to me, am involving others to see if we can get to the bottom of this.

    Hi we are not being able to repro this.

    1. Do you have a flow in your app?

    2. Is there a possiblity that you can share the app with me?

     

    Feel free to email me at mayuro@microsoft.com

     

    Thanks,

    Hi Mayur
    Yes, I had a flow (start in powerapps->modify element in sharepoint->approval by Email->modify element in sharepoint->send info by Email) with problems with some users (wrong username in outlook/gateway connection) but it worked fine with most users. I was trying a launch function from other app (chemicals inventory) to open the blocked app (order management). I was intending to open (launch function) the order app with info about items from the inventory app. I am sure that the launch parameters were wrong (I am using Powerapps since 4-5 weeks and I am learning by trial and error), but I did not think the app would be blocked...
    I deleted the flow and the launch function. On monday I will phone to technical support and ask authorization to our systems manager to share the app with you (company policy, sorry).
    Thanks for your help!!!

    Thanks. After you deleted the flow does the app work? Also did you try readding the flow and see if the issue still persists?

    Hi

    No, the app still blocked. First I disabled the flow, checked the app (->blocked) and then I deleted it.

    The flow stopped at the first Email step when it was started by an user with a special character in her Outlook username ("ñ"), but it worked when other users started it. We changed the conflictive username ("n" instead "ñ"), updated the connections to sharepoint, outlook... but the flow always take the wrong username (with "ñ").

    Thanks
