Fill - In Form no longer working

I originally had a fill-in form. Once it was saved, I could no longer access the fields to type in. It also will not let me scroll in parts of the application I am filling out.
Thanks for your help in advanced!

Problem solved. I guess I didn't type the dash correctly. Re-did it and now the hotkeys appear in the accounts list and they work when I apply them.

My created forms no longer work

I use Acrobat 9 Pro. I have several forms that I have created that no longer work. I can fill in only some of the fields (whichever the system allows me to that day) and cannot save anything without receiving an error. If I try to print what little the document allowed me to fill in, only the form fields will print- not even the non-editable text will print. I need access and use of these forms. I have already tried the Repair feature in the program to no avail. Can someone please help?

Hello. I believe I found the answer to the problems yesterday. After trying everything I could from different forums and getting nowhere, I looked at the Adobe Properties by right clicking on the program. Once in Properties, there is a compatability tab. I run Windows 7 Pro 32bit. Nevertheless, I selected the box that says "Run this program in compatability mode for" and then selected Windows 7. It seems ridiculous to run the program in compatability mode for the OS I actually have on my system but it has done the trick. All forms work now and my other PDF issues around the office have been resolved. The only downside is that some PDF documents are printing slowly, but at least everything works.
ps: I first tried running compatabiilty mode for XP but it caused several credentialing issues with my systyem and our network, allowed forms to work, but only if they originated from my system (not the network) and did not allow other PDFs to open.

My PHP form no longer works?

Hi
http://www.collegestudentvoice.com/form/form.php
1. Programmer says there is no coding errors. Nothing has changed.
2. Host says there must be coding errors.
3. There may version incompetibilities with Perl script between the form and the host version.
these are 3 files:

bregent,
you have explained everything was is happening.
Mine firewall setttings block the scrip so when I fill the form and submit it, I do not get any errors, but that form information does not go anywhere.
All firewall setting should be OFF when a form is submitted?

InfoPath 2013 customized forms no longer working after linking Sharepoint 2010 list to MS Access 2013 database

Hello,
I am having trouble with my infopath form now that I have linked my Sharepoint list to an Access database.
Background: I created a simple SharePoint list and a few workflows to have users submit requests for changes to my organization's EMR system and have those requests be approved by the appropriate manager/department. I used
InfoPath to customize my form so that it would hide/show different portions depending on what the user selected. The form has 3 views: NewItem, EditItem, ViewItem.
Issue: The form and workflows were working great until I linked my SharePoint list to an access database so that I could run queries and reports using that information. Now when I click "Add New Item" on my Sharepoint site,
the correct form opens but the fields do not allow me to input any data and some of the formatting for the form has changed (ie: the text boxe fields are no longer centered. I opened the form in InfoPath and it displays perfectly fine in there but
not once it's published to the site) .
The only way that I've been able to input new data is using Datasheet view in SharePoint.
Is there a way to fix this issue? I really need to be able to have the customized forms for users to fill out the information since most users are not familiar enough with SharePoint to expect them to be able to use Datasheet view to submit their requests.
Again, I'm using InfoPath 2013, Access 2013 & SharePoint Server 2010
If the issue cannot be fixed, how can I disconnect or unlink my SharePoint list from the Access database because when I cliecked on "delete list" from inside Access, a warning popped up stating that it will also delete the list off of SharePoint
as well. If I can get the list back to the state it was in before linking to Access then I'll be happy enough to export it excel and then importh the excel file to Access as a work around for reporting purposes since I don't have to run the reports that
often.
Any insight would be very helpful!!

Hi Bostic,
I tested the same scenario per your post in my environment, however the InfoPath form was not affected if I used the list as external data in Access database.
The issue may be due to the browser you used.
I recommend to verify the things below:
Change another browser to see how it works.
Add the site to the trusted zone and add to compatibility settings in Internet Explorer.
Test with a new list to narrow down the issue scope.
As a workaround, you can save the list as a template including content, and then create a new list based on this template.

Sending mail via forms no longer working

Recently, on one of our servers (XServe G4 - 10.3.9) was running both web and mail. Mail was moved off of the server 2 days ago onto a newer server (10.4.7)
The web server has: php4.3.11 and is ONLY running AFP/OD/Web
Since the transfer of the mail server to the new machine, all web sites can no longer send mail via their scripts (either by sendmail, php's mail(), or by connecting to SMTP server via php).
The web logs do not show errors when it attempts to send the mail...
A look at mail.log shows
"relay=cyrus, delay=2558, status=deferred (temporary failure. Command output: couldn't connect to lmtpd: Connection refused_ 421 4.3.0 deliver: couldn't connect to lmtpd_)
As far as I'm aware, the web server/sendmail shouldn't be attempting to use cyrus at all. For the record, Cyrus master is not running.
All users can access the mail server without any difficulty. DNS entries have been checked and double checked.
Does anyone know why sendmail and php mail functions stopped working? I really need to get these web forms functioning again. Is the problem with apache, php, sendmail or something else?

Hi Camelot,
Thanks for the quick reply and useful suggestion. I did as you mentioned and fired up the mail server.
The mail "delivered" however, I notice a couple issues in the logs (mail.log)
issue #1: I have to start cyrus master manually via > sudo /usr/bin/cyrus/bin/master SA and command line start/stop of mail does not start master. Also, when starting master from command line as mentioned, terminal hangs.
issue #2 (from mail.log) - still getting the same lmtpd error (but messages do finally get delivered):
Jan 14 03:58:24 www postfix/pipe[2914]: 3503858502D: to=<[email protected]>, relay=cyrus, delay=5327, status=deferred (temporary failure. Command output: couldn't connect to lmtpd: Connection refused_ 421 4.3.0 deliver: couldn't connect to lmptd_ )
Jan 14 03:59:39 www postfix/cleanup[2906]: B60AE58572B: to=<[email protected]>, relay 123.123.123.123[123.123.123.123], delay=0, status=sent (250 Ok: queued as 9FBF41BCBCA)
Do you think these are "issues" to contend with or are they "normal" occurances?

Switched email servers; same address, contact form no longer works

I switched my web host's email from their internal email setup to a google business email of the same address. The propagation took a little time, but now everything's working right. Except my contact form on my website. Now when I try to submit, I get "Server encountered an error" even though its the exact same email address as it was before, just through google's business email service and not my web host's. Whats going on and how to I fix this? Is it an SMTP server issue under the hood? I notice if I make another email account through my host and then direct the form to send email to that account, it works. But switching it back to the google business email account I can't get it to work.

Hi abstractls,
You may be having the same problem as me. If the Airport Express is NOT connected to the internet, the Macs will still work, but the PC print routines say "you do not have sufficient access to your computer to connect to the selected printer" or just "An unknown error occurred during printing". If you reconnect the internet, the problem goes away.
I suspect that the PC is not getting an IP address assigned to it by the Airport Express, and cannot cope without it, but the Mac is OK.
My problem is that I do not want to connect the Airport Express to the net, I just want it to share a printer between Macs and PC. Does anyone know of a fix for that problem? I have told the Airport Express to ignore the lack of an internet connection, but that just switches off the amber light...

I'm having a similar difficulty.
I have a website designed in Flash, with a registration form which uses a php script to send the registration information as an email.
Testing the flash file locally, everything works. Test the html page (locally) - in Safari - everything works. Try the page online - in Safari - no joy. Try the same in Firefox - bingo, the email is sent.
To further drive me crazy, using my test html file and basic flash form, on the same server, same directory and same php script as the web site.... Safari does work????????

Master-Detail forms no longer work in Access

Hi
We have migrated an Access 2000 application into an Oracle 9i database successully. However, the application has a master-detail form that functioned correctly before migration. Since migration the child form does not appear, thus preventing the entering of a new child record.
Before migration the detail form appeared as a totally blank form. Now the detail form simply doesn't appear. The detail form is based on a select statement which selects data from a stored query. I am suspicious that this is the cause as during tests I have tried manually creating a simple master-detail form and can see this working. I was able to get the test form to fail to produce a blank subform when the subform was based on a select statement however, attempts to change the real form to look at a table rather than a select statement don't solve the problem.
We have looked on the Oracle forums, but the only error matching our requirements was posted in March 2001 with no real answer (Q: unable to launch subform after migration
This seems a problem that would not be uncommon so surely we have omitted doing something obvious.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Hello. I believe I found the answer to the problems yesterday. After trying everything I could from different forums and getting nowhere, I looked at the Adobe Properties by right clicking on the program. Once in Properties, there is a compatability tab. I run Windows 7 Pro 32bit. Nevertheless, I selected the box that says "Run this program in compatability mode for" and then selected Windows 7. It seems ridiculous to run the program in compatability mode for the OS I actually have on my system but it has done the trick. All forms work now and my other PDF issues around the office have been resolved. The only downside is that some PDF documents are printing slowly, but at least everything works.
ps: I first tried running compatabiilty mode for XP but it caused several credentialing issues with my systyem and our network, allowed forms to work, but only if they originated from my system (not the network) and did not allow other PDFs to open.

xsl:if test="ddwrt:IfHasRights(16)" no longer working in a New form

Hello all -
We have a list with some fields hidden for normal users, but approvers have edit access to these fields. The list has been working fine with the new,edit, and view forms all working as expected for over a year. BTW, this is on a Sharepoint Online site.
Somehow, over this last weekend, although no changes were made to any of the forms, the New item form no longer works, but rather comes up with an "unable to display this web part" error.
So, in doing some troubleshooting, I created a new form for the list and confirmed that the new default form works fine. I then added in just the code for hiding a field and immediately the form came up with the "unable to display this web part"
error.
Is this functionality no longer supported?
btw, here's the code I tested in the new form:
<xsl:if test="ddwrt:IfHasRights(16)"><tr>
<td width="190px" valign="top" class="ms-formlabel"><H3 class="ms-standardheader"><nobr>Entry Status</nobr></H3></td>
<td width="400px" valign="top" class="ms-formbody"><SharePoint:FormField runat="server" id="ff8{$Pos}" ControlMode="New" FieldName="Entry_x0020_Status" __designer:bind="{ddwrt:DataBind('i',concat('ff8',$Pos),'Value','ValueChanged','ID',ddwrt:EscapeDelims(string(@ID)),'@Entry_x0020_Status')}" /><SharePoint:FieldDescription runat="server" id="ff8description{$Pos}" FieldName="Entry_x0020_Status" ControlMode="New" /></td>
</tr>
</xsl:if>
Also, quick note that I double-checked to make sure that there was no other field on the form with ff8 already.
TIA
Michael

Hi Michael,
I have reproduced when I use this function for a field of a list from SharePoint online site, however it couldn't be reproduced from SharePoint on-premise.
Not sure if SharePoint online update causing this, since we cannot check the ULS log according to the Correlation ID, I would recommend you post this issue in Office365 SharePoint Online forum via the following link, you can get a better assistance
regarding SharePoint Online issue and there may be possible to involve the back-end support engineer to look into the issue.

Reader X - Cannot fill in form

We have a lot of forms that had been created to be fillable, all for these forms worked with no issue under previous versions of Reader. However, since the upgrade to Reader X many of the fillable forms no longer work, they open in read only to prevent modifiation. I have even uninstalled Reader X, gone back to Reader 9 and they work again, as a temporary solution this is great but Reader X is the required software. Shy of purchasing Acrobat for 5000+ users how can this be fixed?

Hi,
Please let me know if you are filling in the forms via a browser or via the application as such?
Thanks

Firefox 7 is forcing me to fill out a form field that isn't required. I've used FF on this site for years but when I upgraded to FF7 it no longer works. IE it works fine.

Firefox 7 is forcing me to fill out a form field that isn't required. I've used FF on this site for years but when I upgraded to FF7 it no longer works. IE it works fine.

It's our internal applicant tracking systems (resume database). It works fine in IE and all previous verisons of FF but in FF 7 a bubble icon pops up stating that "Please fill out this field".
The field is not required but states "Require all of these words" if you to run a search based on those parameters.

Filling PDF forms with in-house software - pdf no longer works in Reader

I have created a PDF form in Acrobat 8.1.0 Pro and enabled the "Filling of form fields" feature.
1)
I can open this form in Adobe Reader, fill fields, save, load / repeat process as many times as I want with no problems.
What we would like to be able to do is "pre-fill" some of the form fields using an in-house application with some data and save. At a later time, users would need to add additional information.
If I open one of these pre-filled forms with Adobe Reader, it immediately gives an error message and closes the file:
"This document contained certain rights to enable special features in Adobe Reader. The document has been changed since it was created and these rights are no longer valid. Please contact the author for the original version of this document."
Other programs such as "Foxit" and "AmiUni PDFSuite" don't seem to care that the file was pre-filled.
Is this because Adobe Reader actually checks some sort of CRC or signature which was created at the time the initial PDF form was created by Adobe Pro - and if the signature is no longer valid Adobe Reader won't go any further?
2)
What would be the options to get around this problem? Is there a way to accomplish this with Adobe Pro? We need to be able to pre-fill some fields in the form from our application, then have the user complete filling the form manually.
Thanks!

Enabling usage rights in reader grants specific rights for a given document - form fill in, saving, signing, etc. Reader checks if something else has been done to the document beyond the scope of the rights granted and apparently the program you are using to add the form data is triggering this test for some reason. There is a digital signature which isused to check this, plus an analysis of what has changed in incremental save sections.
What you are trying to do should work in principal. If the developer of the application is available, have them look at what else is being changed besides the addition of form data. They should be able to fix the problem.
If the pre-fill data is the same for each user, you can definitely run the pre-fill and then enable usage in reader.

Error checking no longer works when filling in a form - FF 29

I am running FF 29.0 and when I try to fill in the following form, the error checking on the form does not work, I cannot tick the checkbox and the 'Submit' button remains 'greyed-out'.
The problem persists in 'Safe' mode. Here is the form in question:-
https://digitalmailbox.com.au/registration
Hope a solution can be found.

I don't normally use Internet Explorer but on this occasion I thought I would give it a try.
IE 11.0.9600.17105 handles the above registration page without a problem.
Is the problem with FF 29 or with the webpage in question?

I installed Reader X and now a savable form will no longer work

I bought a medical claim form (CMS-1500) that allowed me to save patient information in it and save that basic information so when I enter another claim, I have most of the form pre filled out. Once I installed X, the form no longer allows me to save. Also, previous client forms I saved do not show the information in the individual fields or print them, but the strange thing is when I click on a specific field, that information pops in. But when I click on another field, the previous one disappears and the new field appears. Nonoe of the info. prints and it only allows me to save as a blank form now. This works the same if I open the file in X or 9 (Mac version) (It worked great for the previous 6 months on 9 before I installed X). I did commuincate with the form provider and they can't figure out what is going on either. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can recover this information or these files?

The problem of data in the fields becoming visible only when the fields have the focus is probably due to a well known problem with the Preview application on the Mac: http://kb2.adobe.com/community/publishing/885/cpsid_88564.html
So if you're dealing with a form that was corrupted with Preview, there's not a lot you can do with Reader to recover it. You can export the form data to an FZDF file with Acrobat and reimport it into the original (blank) form.
It's hard to tell what's preventing Reader 10 from saving without looking at the document in question.

Forms HOST command no longer works after database upgrade from 10g to 11g

Hi,
After upgrading the database 10g to 11g the forms HOST command no longer works on Unix server. The form used to work fine prior the upgrade. I read all the threads I could find and did not see any solutions. Adding PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH does not work because it does not even run a basic shell script. (I saw this solution, adding PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH, in many questions / threads).
1. I wouldn't expect the database upgrade to be an issue, but it is the only change we had.
2. Note, 11g is Oracle Fusion Middleware which is quite a bit different than 10g.
I even tried the most basic commands like "echo" which is a build-in Unix command and there is no directory for it (ie. no /usr/bin - so variable PATH is irrelvent). i.e HOST('echo hi'); and HOST('echo "hi" '); and even HOST ('echo hi > /my_file.txt'); all returns FORMS_FAILURE (actually the if is IF FORM_SUCCESS THEN ... else ... and the else part always runs now - whereas it didn't before.).
Or basic commands like /usr/bin/ls as in HOST(/usr/bin/ls). At that point I was just testing the Unix command would return FORM_SUCCESS even though I could not see the results (because they weren't writing to a log file). Notice that I'm using the direct path /usr/bin so no Unix environment variables were needed.
The form does use webutil but that part works. For example, we have webutil_file_transfer( ....) The file shows up on the application server and in the expected directory.
Here's the main goal. Upload a file from clients local PC to the datebase server. The form uploads the file to the Application server, then we have a Unix script to scp (secure copy) the file from the application server to the database server. IF webutil, or any other Oracle functions could put the file on the database server that would be better. But, I don't know of any procedures that do that - or would have done it cleanly (i.e. storing to database and write back to server and then using a blob etc. )
Anyway, I was hoping someone would help with either of these.
1) Get the HOST command to work. - If we can get that to work then I wouldn't need any more help. We can just call the already existing Unix script to copy the file from the application server to the database.
2) OR be able to upload directly to the database server - wanted to do that originally
Any help would be appreciated

Solution for those interested and for anyone else searching this forum for a solution
I found this on My Oracle Support:
<h3>Host Command from Forms Not Working in 11g in Sun Solaris Sparc OS [ID 1157346.1]</h3>
Applies To: Oracle Forms - Version 11.1.1.1.0 and later
Sun SPARC Sun OS
Symptoms:
When trying to execute a Shell script or any OS command using the host() Built-in from Forms 11g, the host()command is not getting executed. The same functionality works on other operating systems and in previous versions like 10gR2.
Steps to be followed:
1) Take a backup and edit the $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/servers/WLS_FORMS/applications/formsapp_11.1.1/config/default.env or any custom environment file.
2) Locate the following environment variable:
LD_PRELOAD=/ora10gas/app/11.1.0/Middleware/as_1/jdk/jre/lib/sparcv9/libjsig.so
3) Comment out this variable. After the changes, it will look like the following:
#LD_PRELOAD=/ora10gas/app/11.1.0/Middleware/as_1/jdk/jre/lib/sparcv9/libjsig.so
3) a) Instead of LD_PRELOAD, kindly use LD_PRELOAD_64 as given below :
LD_PRELOAD_64=/ora10gas/app/11.1.0/Middleware/as_1/jdk/jre/lib/sparcv9/libjsig.so
(This makes HOST AND RUN_REPORT_OBJECT work fine).
4) Save the file and execute your forms. The Host() built-in will work as expected
The LD_PRELOAD setting in default.env is only required for the working of signal chaining facility in JVM version 1.5 and later. If you are not using theSignal chaining facility, this variable is not required. For more information, refer to the following documentation
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/doc.1111/e14772/forms.htm#CJAJGAFF
