Submit button just doesn't work anywhere (not in Portal, Run or just the Ui designer)

Q&A
1

I am able to input values, managed to define profiles for users with associated roles in the portal, however, when the initiator (logged into the portal) of the first task in chooses to start the process, the form opens and, when all the values are input, clicking on the Submit button does nothing. The Submit button does nothing in the UI Designer preview as well.

There is no error report or anything else. It just doesn’t work. Is this because there is some error in the form (like data export) and if it is, how to see what the error is? I am using the 7.1.3 version of community edition.

I don’t know what is your problem but you can debug with your web browser network analyser :

  1. Go to your page with the submit button (with Firefox)
  2. Open developpement tools network (Ctrl + Maj + Q for Firefox).
  3. Click on Submit
  4. See a new request Post and click on it and check the response : you may see the reponse log with the error

I solved the problem a while ago. One thing I don’t really like about this system is that the errors are not displayed and the only way to really output them is to use the failed response data. Kinda annoying, but I figured out that my output was not set up correctly with my contracts. As such some contracts probably couldn’t get their data or some of the outputs from the form didn’t have anywhere to go, so it all came down crashing and burning. Basically, if you do ever change a BDM, you have to go through all the contracts and if necessary re-add the contracts from Data (as well as redefine the output operations).
