Submit not locking form

I have a form that when the submit button is selected, it locks a subform and sends a pdf doc. However when I open the document it unlocks the form allowing for edits. How do I prevent this from happening? I'm LC Designer ES 8.2.1

Did you add script to lock the sub-form upon submission? Field locking is not default behaviour.
If you want the form to be non-editable by users subsequent to the original save, you will either have to flatten the document (make it not interactive basically) or add script to make fields read only.

Converting (locking) form upon submission.

HI All. I have a product sample submission form for my laboratory. The form has multiple fields that are filled out by the requestor and a Submit button that will mail a copy to a domain. When I send the form now, it does not lock the fields and can still be edited. I would like for it to lock the field and send what I call a "normal" .pdf, (like when you convert a .docx to a .pdf). Is that possible in LiveCycle? I would like for the form to not be editable once it is sent, as well as to be smaller in size. (3MB after submission currently).

Try the LiveCycle Designer forum. This forum is about forms created in Acrobat.

How can recipients submit completed PDF forms using a MAC?

We have created fillable PDF forms using LiveCycle Designer 8.0. They include
submit buttons that are set to submit the completed forms as PDFs. Rights have been extended for Adobe Reader users. They work great when the recipient is using a PC, but when they are using a MAC we have a number of problems:
1) the Print and Submit buttons do not work
2) when the recipient saves and e-mails the file manually, the data they entered is only visible when you click on that field
Help! How can our MAC recipients submit their completed form as a PDF that displays all of the data!
Thanks!

Thanks Niall. This information proved really helpful in confirming the problem. We ran some tests and the problem does seem to only occur when MAC recipients are using Preview.
We recieved this link from Adobe, which provides a solution if you have access to all the recipients:

How can I embed a form on my website and set up a submit button so that when people fill out and click Submit, the filled form will be emailed to me as an attached pdf file?

Thank you!

Hi;
That is not a workflow that is supported by the Adobe forms solutions at this time.

XML Parsing error: not well-formed (invalid token) (error code 4) --- Urgent Help Needed!

Hi all, what im doing now is im trying to create a database connection my my MS SQL 2005 database. I created a data source and went to my Adobe Lifecycle Designer 7.1, i created a new data connection, selected OLEDB and created the connection string using the build function.
Ok, now the problem is, after creating the new data connection and i click on the preview tab, i will receive the error stated above.
'XML Parsing error: not well-formed (invalid token) (error code 4), line 444, column 1 of file'
Does anyone know why am i receiving this error and how do i go about solving this?
I need this database connection to pre-fill my form when the user downloads the form =(

I have a vital form that clients fill out, which is passed to many people in the company along the workflow. The form is a Planner and we have in the following PDF, Word Doc..
Well before, the Planner.pdf was originally created in Word, since most people have access to Word.. but evolved to a PDF form created from the Word Doc via Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.0 w/ User Rights enabled so that the form could be filled out and saved using Adobe Reader.. which was a step better than Word.. being that it is free. But this needed to be easier and more to the point b/c some clients don't particularly like installing the latest version of Reader, even if you provide them the link. Nor do they like saving the form, filling the form, and attaching the form to send back.
My goal is to have the client fill an HTML version of the form, submit and be done with it, but everyone in the workflow be able to easily receive the filled Planner as a PDF form.
So some months ago I ran into this post Chris Trip, "Populate Livecycle PDF from mySQL database using PHP" #8, 22 Sep 2007 4:37 pm
which uses the command line Win32 pdftk.exe to merge an FDF file into an existing PDF on the remote server, and serve this to whoever.
My problem was with shared hosting and having the ability to use the Win32 pdftk.exe along with PHP which is predominantly used on Linux boxes. And we used a Linux box.
so i created the following unorthodox method, which a client fills the HTML version of the Planner, all field values are INSERTED into a table in MySQL DB, I and all filled planners that have been filled by clients to date can be viewed from a repository page where an XML file is served up of the corresponding client, but someone would have to have Acrobat Professional, to import the form data from the XML file into a blank form.. altoughh this is simple for me.. I have the PHP file already created so that when a Planner is filled and client submits. >> the an email is sent to me with a table row from the repository of the client name, #, email, and a link to d-load the XML file,
But I also have the PHP files created so that the Planner can be sent to by email to various people in the workflow with certain fileds ommitted they they do not need to see, but instead of the XML file beiong served up i need the filled PDF Planner to be served.
I can do this locally with ease on a testing server, but I am currently trying to use another host that uses cross-platform compatibility so i can use PHP and the pdftk.exe to achieve this, as that is why I am having to serve up an XML file b/c we use a Linux server for our website, and cant execute the exe.
Now that I am testing the other server (cross-platform host), just to use them to do the PDF handling (and it's only $5 per month) I am having problems with getting READ, WRITE, EXECUTE permissions..
Si guess a good question to ask is can PHP do the same procedure as the pdftk.exe, and i can eleminate it.
or how in the heck can i get this data from the DB into a blank PDF form, like i have described??

Groupware Integration XML message is not well formed

Hi everybody,
I have the problem that i got an message in the error log of the Groupware Connector at the Groupware server.
ERROR MIDDLEWARE - CREATE APPOINTMENT - - "[ERR: 6005]: Failed to get message from data queue: [ERR: 4001]: XML message is not well formed: [org.xml.sax.SAXException]: org.xml.sax.helpers.AttributesImpl@4cb3a4"
I also got an entry in the Groupware Connector Administrative Toll under current locks:
ORGANIZER_UNKNOWN:GWA_01 with error code 4001. (I think this belongs to the message of the error log)
Error Code 4001 stands for XML message is not well formed.
Has anybody a solution for the problem. What can I do. Where can I get more information or debugg the problem? Where can i see the XML message?
Thanks and best regards,
Sebastian

Hi Sebastian,
Have you solved your problem? I have got the same on CRM 6.0.
Thanks and regards,
Yann

Xml is not well formed and caller ID issues

XML is not well formed happens when i click on links from facebook mobile...links to youtube videos, or any other external links. This used to work before, just started happening out of nowhere.
Also, caller ID doesnt display names from contacts, just the number they are calling from...1-10 calls will show the contact name.
any information would be great, thank you!

Since you have a "BlackBerry Browser" I'm assuming you're on a BES? Have you talked with your IT department? Is the device locked when the caller ID doesn't work? Do you have content protection enabled?
1. Please thank those who help you by clicking the "Like" button at the bottom of the post that helped you.

Limit the number of submissions to a form?

I'm not sure if this is possible with BC?
How can I limit the number of submissions to a form, and when the max number is met, replace the form with a different form?
Thanks,
Stephen

Hi,
Unfortunately, it is not possible to limit the form responses in FormsCentral.
However, you may manually close the form; after reaching the maximum number of replies.
Regards,
Nakul

Only with YES it should be possible to submit, not the negative. how do I set it?

I would like to create a forms with formscentral.acrobat.com. at the conclusion I want to insert the terms and only with YES it should be possible to submit, not the negative. how do I set it?

You can use a single checkbox field and make it required. It will have to be checked otherwise the form cannot be submitted.
I think this is what you are asking for...

Help!!urgent!!can not insert/update clob:the row containing the lob is not locked

Hi,
could you do me help?
i can not insert a string into a oracle clob field, it echo as:
ORA22920 row containing the lob value is not locked. ORA 06512 at "SYS.DBMS_LOB" line 708
ORA 06512 at line 1;
what its means? please.
my table defined as : create table clob1(id number(5),mclob clob default empty_clob()); the id is create by a sequece of test_sequence automaticly.
my code as belows:
import java.io.*;
import java.sql.*;
//import oracle.sql.*;
public class test4 {
public static void main(String args[]) {
String url_String
= "jdbc:oracle:thin:test/test@myhost:1521:myorcl";
try {
Class.forName
("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
java.sql.Connection con =
java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(url_String);
con.setAutoCommit(true);
Statement stmt
=con.createStatement();
String sqlStr ="insert into
clob1 (mclob) " + "values(empty_clob())";
stmt.executeUpdate(sqlStr);
String query = "select
test_seq.CURRVAL from dual";
ResultSet rs =stmt.executeQuery
(query);
rs.next();
int currval =rs.getInt(1);
query = "select * from clob1 where
id="+currval;
String str
="abcedefhijklmnopqrstuvwxyz";
rs =stmt.executeQuery(query);
rs.next();
java.sql.Clob clob1
=rs.getClob(2);
oracle.sql.CLOB clob=
(oracle.sql.CLOB)clob1;
System.out.print(clob);
java.io.Writer
wr=clob.getCharacterOutputStream();
wr.write(str);
wr.flush();
wr.close();
stmt.close();
con.close();
} catch(Exception ex) {
System.err.println("SQLException: "
+ ex.getMessage());
null

Hi,
To avoid ORA-22920 error while selecting lob column, use the 'for update' clause in the select statement like :
query = "select * from clob1 where id="+currval+" FOR UPDATE" ;
This should solve the problem. However, after fixing this, you might get the error :
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-1002: fetch out of sequence
I got this error when testing your code. To avoid this error, before executing 'select ... for update' statement Set AutoCommit to OFF, like :
query = "select * from clob1 where id="+currval+" FOR UPDATE" ;
con.setAutoCommit(false);
rs =stmt.executeQuery(query);
Hope that Helps,
Srinivas

Mac desktop. 10.6.8. Text edit. Not locked. Read and write. Still, documents are locking when they are moved from desktop to another folder on the server. Techies can't figure it out here. What am I not doing?

Mac desktop. 10.6.8. Text edit. Not locked. Read and write, not read only. Documents are locking when they are moved from desktop to another folder or saved directly into that folder on the server. Not happening with anyone else but me and the boss's computer so has to be in the properties for my text edit software. Techies can't figure it out after trying for two weeks. Boss can do a cut and paste and put into a new document, but that's starting to become a problem.

How to calculate the total of bytes transferred when I submit a PDF Form in A. Reader

Hello,
I need to know some way for calculate the total of bytes transferred when I submit a PDF form using JavaScript, hereby:
b ******************************************************************
i var service_url = http://some_webservice/;
i var send_type = "PDF";
i var doc = event.target;
i doc.submitForm( { cURL: service_url, cSubmitAs: send_type } );
b ******************************************************************
b The reason:
I need to indicate the percentage of bytes sent to the server, in real time. Adobe Acrobat shows a progress bar and the transferred quantity in bytes, but Adobe Reader doesn't. Is in this case, when I need to find a way in order to make something similar.
b Than you for your time.

You can use SharePoint Designer and calculate the total in xslt view. Refer to the following post for more information

Since installing the latest update, Firefox will not load; it gives me the following error -- XML Parsing Error: not well formed.

since installing the latest update, Firefox first operated with some errors but now will not load at all; it gives me the following error --
XML Parsing Error: not well formed
locations chrome://browser/content/browser.xml
Line Number 1191, column 20:
utton id="back-forward-dropmarker" type="menu" chromedir="&locale.dir;"-------------------
please note that the words "utton ID" are exactly as the error message gives it; and at the end of the message there are exactly 19 hyphens.
I don't know why this faulty code is referencing things to do with "chrome"... the Chrome browser is not installed on this PC or anywhere on our network.
Also, this is not the first problem I had after clicking Firefox's prompt for the latest update. Before Firefox retreated into this error message, it was loading but running with some faults...
1. the bookmark symbol was not appearing on the right hand side of the URL line, so I had always to click on "bookmark this page", after which the bookmark symbol did appear; however I don't know if the bookmarking function worked properly.
2. the back and forward buttons were not highlighted, as if I had not come from a previous page; so once I clicked on a link to a new page I could not go back to where I came from because Fiefox thought I hadn't come from anywhere.
3. there may have been other errors, but I did not find them.
How do I reinstate my Firefox program to work properly please? do I have to download the latest version and reinstal? if so, do I have to remove the old version first? or is there a fix?
Even to write this message I have been forced to use (yuk -- I don't like to say this!!!) Internet Explorer. So please -- I need help urgently.
Thanks,
NOEL

Some how I solved my problem by opening a user account and downloading Firefox 4.0 beta and installing it, I did try it, worked fine, so I did close the user account and did go back to my own account(switched user), the main page that I had problem with Firefox which would not open, I dabble click on Firefox it start working again!! I hope that solves your problem too.
firefox will not open, it gives me this cod and would not turn off, Error on switching in renew: NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED, Component returned failure code: 0x8000ffff (NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED) [nsIPrefBranch.getCharPref] id: none

XML from CF not well-formed?

I have been working through the Training from the Source book
on Flex2 (Trapper, Boles, Talbot, etc.). In Lesson 17, it deals
with accessing server-side objects.
One piece of code accesses a CF template, which brings in an
XML file:
<mx:HTTPService id="prodByCatRPC"
url="
http://localhost/flexGrocer/xml/categorizedProducts.cfm"
result="prodByCategoryHandler(event)"
resultFormat="e4x" />
The CF plate from the book's file has the following:
<cfheader name="Expires" value="#now()#" />
<cfxml variable="xProducts">
<cfinclude template="categorizedProducts.xml">
</cfxml>
<cfset xmlObject=ToString(xProducts)>
<cfcontent type="text/xml" />
<cfoutput>#variables.xmlObject#</cfoutput>
When run the Flex file, I get a run-time message which seems
to indicate that the XML is not well-formed. (Here is a bit of the
message; not sure I'm understanding it!):
[RPC Fault faultString="Error #1088: The markup in the
document following the root element must be well-formed."
faultCode="Client.CouldNotDecode" faultDetail="null"]
I am ASSUMING that the CF page is not returning the xml as
desired, because if I simply change the flex http service call to
the xml file that the CF page is including, the flex app runs as
expected and without errors:
url="
http://localhost/flexGrocer/xml/categorizedProducts.xml"
(something in the posting mech is making the above url
statement messed up, but you can probably tell what I mean)
I am a CF developer and although haven't used the book's
exact method to get the cf generated xml, I have done so
successfully for Spry and other things.
I tried some ot the things I had to do to get the CF
generated xml to work in Spry with this flex, but didn't help.
Tried adding a reset='true" with the cfcontent tag; tried making
the cfcontent wrap the output; added cfprocessing tags to
suppresswhitespace.
Appreciate any thoughts/help on how to solve this. Also,
whether others agree that the problem is with the generated xml
rather than something else.
Thanks
Keith

I don't remember the exact context when I first posted this
question and answered it; but, if one doesn't want to change
overall settings for debugging in cf admin., I *think* you can
ajust for a specific area using cfsetting and/or
cfprocessingdirective. There's a number of attributes and
combinations there that I think can take care of the problem. I
forget for sure, but may want to try that, especially on a
development box where you might generally want debugging to be on.
Also, if using cfcs in any part of what you generate, they
can produce whitespace. To solve (or minimize), make sure that
output attribute in the component is false and that output in
function is false (unless directly outputting within the function.
Seems like CF and whitespace is an ongoing item to try to
manage.
