Hi,
I have a problem with “Download Only” File in form.
When a I choose Download Only in Data Description for the widget File, the name of the file is not showing and so I don’t have the link to download the file in the form.
Is it a bug?
I have also notice that the file are all insert at the end of the form, why?
Thank you!
Hello mario19,
If i understand your case you want to get the files from your form, in other task ?
If it is the case be sure that you have chosen ‘Internal Field’ when you specify your file in the pool. And that you uploaded all fiels befor submit your form.
I did it and it works
I don’t think this is a bug. Since your process is not started, your document isn’t store with an ID into the base.
When you choose “Download only”, he tries to get the document with his ID. And since the document doesn’t have ID, the field is empty.
When you don’t choose “Download only”, he just get the initial value of the document. Having initial value on a file field doesn’t mean the document is stored into the base.
Don’t forget that a document have an ID is related to a processInstance since you upload a document from a processInstance. Since his process isn’t started yet, the document doens’t have any relation with a processInstance, so he isn’t stored into the base.
Hope this help.
Hi Mario19,

Hi !
I don’t understand your problem. These questions will help me to understand :
Hi,
I declared the file in Pool, in document section, as Internal file.
and I want to see the document in “download only” format in the first form that i have created in pageflow in Pool (the tipical request form).
Can you help me?
Thank you!
Problem is, I don’t think that documents are “instantiated” before clicking on execute, that’s why you can’t see any document.
Did you try to show this document in a human task right after the start event ?
Start event → Human task → End event
In internal human task i have the same problem but
if I use “Document” and not “Resource” for the file reference I see the link
So I think that the problem is the combination of Resource and Download Only
The problem is that in the requestForm (the first in pageflow) I can’t use Document (there isn’t checkbox) but only Resource.
So, how can I link a document in the first request page form?
Thank You
I don’t really understand what you’re trying to do …
You talk about document and then, you talk about Ressource. This is totally different !
I think ressource is used to manage your Workflow UI (Image, css …). You can’t use these ressources in your process. By use, I mean download, modify, upload.
If you want to modify your page after clicking on “Start” in Application menu:
Did I understand your problem ?
I try to describe better my step:
In the published form I don’t see the link at the document
(if I don’t check “Download only” I see the link at the document)
As I told you, I think the variables are not instantied in the pool pageflow (especially files). Can’t you do a human task after the start event which contains this form ?
Why can’t you do this ?
Yes is it the case…
but i have just choosen “Internal Field” and uploaded file.
In fact if I don’t choose “Download Only” I have the name of the file visible and with link (but I have also the “modify” and “cancel” link)
When I choose “Download Only” I have nothing…
Looks like a bug you should report it.
