Request Data - Attachments with not permitted characters

$
0
0

Hello everyone.

I’m testing attachments adding in Nintex Workflow 2010 (with Request Data action) on SharePoint 2010 Foundation.

I am encountering an error when I try to attach file with not permitted characters (eg. “&”).

Server Error in '/' Application.
The file or folder name contains characters that are not permitted. Please use a different name.

 

 

After that the workflow has Status “Completed” but Outcome is “Pending”.

When I try to edit that task and Complete it again the following error occurs:
Server Error in '/' Application
This task is currently locked by a running workflow and cannot be edited.

 

The problem is that the workflow hangs and I cannot do anything with it.

Do you have any ideas how to unlock the failed workflows or how to prevent from locking?

 


Thanks in advance for any information!

 


Problem with start workflow action, "Value does not fall within the expected range."

We experience this issue straight after we start the workflow. The only action in the workflow, is starting another workflow (Adlib default workflow)
The ULS logs show the following error message:

 System.ArgumentException: Value does not fall within the expected range.    

 at Microsoft.SharePoint.Workflow.SPWorkflowExternalDataExchangeServiceCollection.get_Item(Guid id)    

 at Microsoft.SharePoint.Workflow.SPWorkflowExternalDataExchangeServiceCollection.get_Item(Type type)    

 at Microsoft.SharePoint.Workflow.SPWinOESubscriptionService.CreateSubscription(MessageEventSubscription sub)    

 at Nintex.Workflow.Activities.StartWorkflowActivity.CreateExternalEventSubscription(ActivityExecutionContext context, Guid workflowInstanceID, Type interfaceType, String eventName, String[] correlationTokenNames, Object[] correlationValues, WorkflowQueue& queue)    

 at Nintex.Workflow.Activities.StartWorkflowActivity.Execute(ActivityExecutionContext executionContext)    

 at System.Workflow.ComponentModel.ActivityExecutor`1.Execute(T activity, ActivityExecutionContext executionContext)    

 at System.Workflow.ComponentModel.ActivityExecutor`1.Execute(Activity activity, ActivityExecutionContext executionContext)    

 at System.Workflow.ComponentModel.ActivityExecutorOperation.Run(IWorkflowCoreRuntime workflowCoreRuntime)    

 at System.Workflow.Runtime.Scheduler.Run() 

 When we disable the "Wait for the workflow to complete before continuing." checkbox, the workflow does run fine. However if we enable it we run into the error displayed above.

 Any help is greatly appreciated. 

Content Type Field - not available in Nintex Forms

$
0
0

Is there a way, to get the Content Type field to be available, so that the user could change the content type of the item that they are working on?

For example, a custom list has 2 content types associated with it, "basic" and "detail".  "Detail" shares the same fields as "basic", but has additional.  Currently, using SharePoint OOTB edit form, I can simply change the content type from "basic" to "detail", in order to get the other fields. 

But I am unable to do this with the list customized using Nintex Forms.

I know that I can change content types via Workflow, but this seems like a silly workaround.

 

Any information would be greatly appricated.

Thanks.

Attempt to configure Set Item Permissions action intermittently results in Invalid URL error

$

Hi,

We receive an SP error page that says Invalid URL: /sites/abc on clicking Configure to configure the Set Item Permissions action.  The SetItemPermissions.aspx URL is:

http://{web app URL}/sites/abcdef/xyz/_layouts/NintexWorkflow/SetItemPermissions.aspx?activityId=62&ListId={some GUID}&Version=11101.

My guess is that /sites/abc should actually be /sites/abcdef.  I did an internet search and a search here and in the search engines and didn't find anything.  Please let me know what sorts of configuration related things to check.  I can tell you that /sites/abc was backed up (most likely using SPD) and then restored to a new blank site collection at /sites/abcdef.  This occurred before any Nintex workflows were added and even before the product was installed on the farm.  No other Nintex workflow actions have any issues.  Also, this issue appears intermittently, even with the same instance of the Set item Permissions action.

Regards,

Mike

fn-Remove query

Hi

I'm trying to use the fn_Remove function to remove part of a sytem name

so for example, if the user name  was

Bloggs, Chris: ATC Post Confirm (LDN)

I would like it to be  

Bloggs, Chris

I was using the following syntax but am wondering if the fact that the determing character is a ':' is causing an issue

I'm using the following in a Build String action,

fn-Remove({ItemProperty:Uploader12},:,20)

where ':' is where I want to the remove to start and 20 is number of characters after (will never be any more then 20)

This is how I understood this function to work, however what is currently being returned is;

fn-Remove(Bloggs, Chris: ATC Post Confirm (LDN),:,20)

Any help greatly appreciated

 

Thanks

Chris

 

 

 

 

 


Making forms accessible via Microsoft Account

Hey Nintex!

I've installed all required components and can get a Form and Task on my W8 laptop while connected to our work VPN (I'm out of the office). All working well and as expected.

I've gone through all of the config I can find to make the same List and Task form accessible via a MS Account (eg. myemailaddress@outlook.com) on my iPhone. I've Enabled Mobile Apps Live in Central Admin, logged in to the app with a working MS Account, created some iphone mobile forms for my flexi task and list and live enabled them and also specified the same MS Account I'm logging in with in the Live Settings in the form. I keep getting an error saying "Logged in user is not registered in mobile gateway".

 I've had a look through the FAQ's and How To's but I can't find anything specific to this.

Love the product though guys, got heaps of potential.

Problem with PublishFromNWFXml method of the workflow.asmx web service

Greetings,

Thanks to Vadim's examples, I have been able to construct a workflow in a library that accepts files of exported workflow (.nwf files) and then deploys the workflow to another library. However, the in-line functions within the Build Dynamic String actions of the workflow are being corrupted as per the example below. The specific corrupton varies but seems to be limited to Build Dynamic String actions.

Code before deploy: fn-SubString({WorkflowVariable:TempStep},5,1)

Code after deploy: f

I am using Workflow 2007 build 11101 and I have validated that the exported .nwf is intact as I can import via the GUI and the code is not corrupted.

Any assistance provided is very much appreciated, thanks!

fn-Replace in Build String action against a xml

$

Hi

I retrieve xml data from a web service and I have let Nintex do a "Force top level XML node" to get a single root element.

Then I do a XML operation successfully on it. I now have to remove this additional XML node from the variable before I can send it back to the web service.

Should be easy because I should be able to do a "Build String" action with

fn-Replace({WorkflowVariable:projectdatasetNEW},<xml>,)

But the result of this is always something like

fn-Replace(mylargexmlstructure......,<xml>,)

The workflow does not seem to evaluate the fn-Replace as a function but only as text :-(

The XML in the variable has about 1.4 MB - could that be an issue?

Thanks for help

How do I add "Flexi-task respondent" as an item property in a SharePoint library?

$

I have a Flexi-task, set up as "First response applies", in a Nintex workflow.  The group for whom I have built this workflow wants to see the name of the person who responded as an item property in a SharePoint library.  What action do I use, or how do I otherwise capture this information and add it as a column in a SharePoint library? Any suggestions or information would be most appreciated 

Thanks!

Converting Word document to PDF in 2010

$

I have a developer who states he can convert a Word document to PDF using the Convert Document feature on his VM.But Word Automation Services does not convert Word docs to PDF OOTB. It does with code, but we currently do not have such code in our environment. According to the Nintex Workflow 2010 User Manual: "We only support the conversions supported by Word Services."

Is there such code running behind the scenes within the Convert Document workflow item? And if so, would it be possible to see it?

 Thanks. 

Create Item with site workflow, errors with person/group field

$
0
0

This is a project request site workflow that results in a document set being created within a library.  The initiation form collects information such as project name, project sponsor, description, etc.  The form has not been customized with IP or Nintex forms.  The Project Sponsor column is of type Person or Group in the form and the document library.

When running the workflow, the following error is generated:

Failed to create item. Invalid data has been used to update the list item. The field you are trying to update may be read only.

The workflow runs as expected when removing this field from the Create Item action.  The workflow also runs as expected if I add an Update Item action immediately following the Create Item action.  In the Update Item action, I rely on the same workflow variable captured in the initiation form and write to the same column in the document library.  This workflow completes with expected results.  So fortunately there's an easy and acceptable work-around.  But it's definitely a bug.
