Issue with XML form builder

Hi All,
1 ) My XML form builder is hanging up very very frequently (other than this, my portal is very fast).
when I save the project its hangs up at "50% saving internal model". then I have to close the xml form builder and reopen it and save it again (when i do it repeatedly, some time it saves).
when I click on "open Project" many times its not popup the project list, I have to close the xml form builder, logout from my portal and then login back.
Its horrible to work on this, keeps on hanging every time. Any idea why its behaving like this? as I said, my portal is very fast except XML form builder.
My Java version is 1.4.2_16... XML form builder verison is 6.xx
2) when clicked on "preview" button, can we open a pcd iview??? my requirement is, when user clicks on preview button I need to open my application built in PDK java (created iview out of it, which shows xml form in a better way)?
3) Can I show "Edit" form first other than "Renderer" form in News application? Presently it shows renderer form-> user has to click edit link -> then it will open Edit form. I want "Edit" form to be visible to the user in the first step itslef. is it possible?
Thanks
Pradeep

Hi.
I suppose changing of the JDK, because 1.4.2_16 is not recommended version (see SAP  Note 716604). Refer to note 718901 - How to Change the JDK of the J2EE Engine.
Also check what version of client JRE in use. (see Note 1341069 - XML Forms Builder not supported if client JRE is 1.6).

  • Populating dynamic values in the combobox with XML form Builder.

    I am trying to  populate dynamic value in the combobox with xml form builder. I  see the document saying create property group and document property Id with respecitive values.  I am able to create the property group with system admin -> System config
    -> KM -> CM -> Global services  -> property Metadata -> groups  with new button. and I  am trying to create document property Id with value. I am not able to find the way to give  value in the property.   I am using  EP 7.0 Sp 14.  Please let me know how to sovel it

    Hi
    You can create new property metadata with System Admin > System Config > KM > CM > Global services > Property Metadata > Properties > New. Specify the values for this metadata as the ones you need to have in the combo box. Use allowed values parameter of the matadata to sepcify the values. Each metadata property will have unique property ID and you can map this property ID to your combo box in xml forms.
    Give it a try.

  • Issue in XML Form Builder

    Dear Experts,
    i am new to XML Form Builders in Portal, so i have started with this document as my first form:
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/ee639033-0801-0010-0883-b2c76b18583a?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true
    but i have come across two issues can you please guide me to troubleshoot this issue's:
    Issue 1:
    I have made changes as per the document but as per the document (refer page: 17, 2. point)
    refer this image from document: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/825/xmlerror1.png/
    New> Form>?,   here my created News is not displayed
    But it show like below:
    http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/839/xmlerror2.png/
    As shown in the image no News form that I have created?
    Did I miss anything?
    Issue 2:
    As per page 18 from same document:
    Path to Initially Displayed Folder:      /documents/myNews

    Hi,
    Please read and try to understand the concept; give yourself some time. Try to understand what an XMLForms project is and how this differs from content based on such a project.
    > Path to initially displayed folder : /documents/myNews
    > Path to root folder for Navigation: /documents/myNews
    These are just two settings for the KM navigation iView; you can read the (different) meanings on help.sap.com. But in short words: You just configure to which folder the KM navigation iView points to. That's all.
    > so here it pointing to both newly created folder for saving the form created by the end users
    If you have the iView, it is a KM nav iView pointing to this folder. Now an "end user" - it is: an author - can call this iView and can create content based on the XMLForms you have created before (Folder - New - Forms - ...). That's all. That works. End of story. Afterwards, XMLForms content objects based on your project are to be found in this folder.
    > but this folder "myNews" does not contain the form which i have created
    You have created an XMLForms project. Period. You can ("author" iView!!!) create content based on your project in that folder.
    > so how do the end users see my form in first case.
    ??? Really, you have to be much more precise if you want to survive in IT... What is your "end user"? We are talking of an author iView. In that cas it is an author. And under "Folder - New - Forms - ..." there is the possibility to create new XMLForms content based on the project you have created. (That you have said by yourself - issue 1 was gone!!!)
    There is nothing more to explain. That it everything. I really don't see your or any problem any more.

  • Xml form builder- DataSchema not expanding

    Hi Experts,
    I am facing a strange issue in XML form builder.
    When i am trying to expand DataSchema root node by clicking on the + sysmbol. It is not expanding.
    Is there any particular setting or what for this. I have tried this many time but unable to expand data Scheme and not able to create any nodes under DataSchema.
    Please help me in resolving this issue.

    Hello,
    Immediately after opening the XML forms editor from the Content Manager page, you will get a link Start Environment Check Tool.... Click on that and proceed for a check. It will take some 5-10 mins based on your connection speed.If every thing is successful, clear the browser cache and restart the browser and open forms editor again. It will open the data schema and properties filed and project browser and all.
    I was having this problem just now and i resolved it with the above steps.
    My JRE version is 1.6 and portal is EP 7 SPS 21 patched.

  • Issue with HTML Editor of XML Form Builder.??

    Hi All,
    We are using HTML Editor of XML Form Builder to enter the Content. This content will be displayed to teh User by parsing these XML Files generated by the XML Form Builder Application.
    But, when we parse the XML, the other field values are coming properly, except HTML Editor field Content.
    This is working fine, only when I enter a Single line Text. If I enter some Spaces, New lines, Paragraphs, etc. the XML Parsing is not returning any Content..
    And also when I use Text Area, the total content is returning as a Single Paragraph, Even if I enter multiple lines, spaces,.
    If anyone has Idea on this, Please Help me to solve this Issue ASAP.
    Thanks&Regards||
    Ashok Kumar M.

    Hi Bala,
    It is already mapped correctly. If I enter a single line Text in HTML Editor, I am getting the same Text after Parsing. But If I enter multiple lines, spaces, new lines, etc., then the Problem.

  • How to reference a file with the XML Forms Builder?

    Hello,
    I've created a form at the XML Form builder (I am using NW 04). This enables the users to create new topic.
    I've created at at the "Edit" form an option to upload a file along with the new topic. The file is being saved in a subfolder of the topics main folder.
    My question is how to create a link to the specific file that has been uploaded with it's specific topic at the "Show" Form? Note that the subfolder contains files of many topics, I want to link to this specific file uploaded with it's relevant topic when created. How do I do that?

    Hi Roy,
    > I've created at the "Edit" form an option
    > to upload a file along with the new topic.
    What I expect that you have done is to add a browse functionality which browses within KM with the possibility to upload an image into KM?! As done within SAP Demo News?!
    If that's the way, just compare the SAP Demo News: Create /DataSchema/News/image and map it to the browser, whereas in the show form part you'll map it to an image.
    If I didn't understand you right and the issue is still open, please report...
    Hope it helps

  • XML Form Builder-Problem with the save button

    Hi All,
    I created a project in XML Form Builder.
    I included a button "Save" in my project.
    All is working fine when i preview my project in XML Form Builder.
    The problem is when i run my project with iview.
    I suppose the form to save my input and then to be closed but
    unfortunately it did not.
    I don't know where the problem is as in the XML Form Builder everything seems ok.
    Thank you for your help!
    Regards,
    Ari

    Hi Carsten,
    Thank you for your help.
    There is no javascript error in the form.
    In the status bar when i have my mouse over the button i can see "javaxcript:HrefSubmit('save',"");"
    And when push the button "Transering Data..."
    I created the form in the Xml Form Builder and in preview there the project works.
    What do you mean "Did you access your Form using the KM Admin Explorer via a comman?"
    How can i have acess there?
    I appreciate you help!

  • Error writing output with iview for xml form builder

    Hi,
    I created a Xml Form Builder's project in which I developed an "Edit" and "ListEdit" sheet.
    I also created an iview for theese in which the code link is:"com.sap.km.cm.xmlform",and the field for Style Sheet for List and for single item are set up correctly,but when I tried the preview the following error message happened:
    com.inqmy.lib.xsl.xslt.XSLOutputException: Error writing output. -> org.w3c.dom.DOMException: Root Element is already present, cannot be appended as a child.
    could someone help me?
    thank's a lot!
    Nick.

    Hi,
    Now I'm confused,what do you mean with create new data? Are users editing existing documents
    (as if they go to a document example.xml > edit) or they are creating new documents (as if they go
    on folder > new > forms)?
    The problem is, in both cases a user would need read/write permissions.
    The normal flow content (data) is created in KM is as follows:
    1. user is assigned to a role
    2. role contains KM Navigation iView
    3. KM Navigation iView executes com.sap.km.cm.navigation component
    4. user chooses New > Form UI command (edit_xml_forms)
    5. edit_xml_forms UI command executes its code (com.sapportals.wcm.rendering.uicommand.cm.UIXMLFormsCreateCommand) and open xml edit for the user
    6. user fill the form and click Save, form is created into folder
    For what I understood so far, your requirement basically asks you to go directly to step 5, it is
    possible to pass a URL that goes directly to step 5, the UI command button, but if you do that
    you won't have a context, so chances that it will work are slim, since a context is required to
    fill the parameters asked by the app (like folder, user, permissions, etc). Even though, in some cases you can
    still pass the parameters via post in the URL but you must know which service/parameters the
    app asks for it, also a URL is static...
    That was the create scenario, I think it's more cons than pros, users would still be
    able to bypass the URL iView created for that, I'd suggest evaluating again if it's really
    a problem having users access cm to manage data
    kind regards,
    Rafael

  • XML Forms Builder - problem with checkbox

    Hi,
    I have created many checkboxes in XML Forms Builder and if I want to create a new document based on this "Form" I have still checked one of checkboxes. I would like to have all empty  checkboxes becasue user should check the appropriate checkboxes.
    Do you know how to resolve this problem?

    Hi,
    is it always the same checkbox that is already filled in? Is this ckeckbox based on a metadata-definition?
    If yes: You could maybe have a look at the metadata-definition. Is there maybe a default-value defined?

  • Urgent - XML Form Builder - lnode

    Hi,
    Strange behaviour, i created a new XML Form Project and have defined a schema with some nodes (day, month, year, lead, body, link under root node), for data schema.
    I build the Edit form and run it, everything works fine until push save button, when i do this, i get an error message saying that "..star-tag link different from end-tag root...".
    I made some changes until i find that by simple removing the node link from data schema, everythings works fine, if put it again, gives the same error message.
    Is there any limitation of using a node link, under root node of data schema? Any one tried?
    EP6 SP11.
    Thanks and Regards,
    John

    Hi Darin,
    Changing the node name link to another think, was my first thought, but there are 2 issues:
    - What's the reason why a node named link doesn't work?(Looks like a "bug")
    - I have upgraded the portal from SR1 SP09 to SP11, and in SP09 i have already created some items with XML Form with this structure, and because of the upgrade, i have already to change all the XML Forms, because listShow and listEdit doesn't work anymore, and now, for some strange reason i can't see my old news, because doesn't accept de node named link and i can't rename the node named link, because this means that i have to re-save all old news items.
    Other think is, all XML Forms, incluind the standards ones, HTML editor are not working, clicking on any option available(Bold, Italic, ...), gives a message saying "[Object required]".
    If you get another thought on this, please tell me.
    Thanks and Regards,
    John

    Hi Leah,
    Have you tried double clicking?
    If this doesn't solve the issue, you might want to try using a different version of the browser and disable the pop up blocker on your browser.
    Please try this out and let me know.
