Initial page running, but nothing else

I'm trying to run an OPS 3.0 application. I've set it up in an exploded
WAR file according to instructions Eric provided some time back (see
attached; I've followed these all except for last instruction concerning
the <context> pointer from Tomcat's "server.xml" file). So, in Tomcat, I
have the folder structure webapps/tooleval/WEB-INF and the attached zip
file is located in "WEB-INF".

I get the initial page of the application, but none of the buttons work.
I'm assuming there is a pathing or namespace issue causing the problem,
but so far I've been unable to spot the problem. If anyone else can,
please point it out to me.

Thanks,

Don

Hi Don,

On which page should I go to reproduce this problem? I ran your
resources went to /toolEvaluation and clicked on the first button.
There I get a "page not found", and this is because in
resources\ToolEvalApp\view.xhtml there is a submission to /toolEval,
which is not defined in the page flow.

Thanks Alex,

Well, you found the basic problem. In your case, clicking on any button
on the initial page gets you a "page not found" message. I don't even
get that. . .

I corrected the submission action in resources\ToolEvalApp\view.xhtml as
follows:

  <xforms:submission id="main-submission" method="post"
action="/toolEvaluation"/>

This now matches the "path-info" value for the initial page of the
application. Unfortunately, I still get nothing when I run the
application and click on any of the four buttons.

Any other ideas?

(Also, my attempt to view the content of the form using

<p style="margin-top: 2em">
  <xforms:group>
    <xforms:label>XForms instance</xforms:label>
    <xforms:output ref="instance('formatted')" mediatype="text/html"/>
  </xforms:group>
</p>

Doesn't work either.)

Don

Donald,
       


You don't have a ref attribute in here, it should be
ref="instance('instanceid')" to send the data

Also you need a replace attribute can be all/none/instance
If its instance you need an instance="instanceid" attribute to tell it what
to change.
Have you got instance('formatted') declared? Do you have the

<xforms:bind nodeset="instance('formatted')"
calculate="saxon:serialize(xxforms:call-xpl('oxf:/config/theme/format.xpl','
data',instance('instanceid'),'data')/*,'html')"/>

In your xforms:model?

Should work with that!

Ryan,

>You don't have a ref attribute in here, it should be

It appears the both "ref" and "replace" are optional:

        "3.2.3. Migrating to the OPS 3.0 XForms Engine

        The xforms:submission element now requires an id attribute to be
useful (by being referred from the submission attribute of
xforms:submit or xforms:send). Attributes action and method are also
mandatory."

And in any case, I'm not sure "replace" is yet supported. There is this
known limitation of 3.0:

        "3. Changes in Verion 3.0.0
        3.1. Known Limitations of OPS 3.0

        XForms upload controls only work within forms that are submitted
with a reference to a submission element with replace="all". The value
of XForms upload controls is ignored when forms are submitted with
replace="instance" or replace="none"."

I assume this limitation is the case and that the following
implementation note is provisional (but I'm not sure):

        "3.2. XForms
        3.2.1. New Features

        XForms submission. The XForms engine supports submitting forms
as application/xml with HTTP POST and application/x-
www-form-urlencoded with HTTP GET (including to external applications).
Support for replace="instance", replace="all", and
replace="none" is included."


>Do you have the

<xforms:bind nodeset="instance('formatted')"
calculate="saxon:serialize(xxforms:call-xpl('oxf:/config/theme/format.xp
l','
data',instance('instanceid'),'data')/*,'html')"/>

>In your xforms:model?

Ah, thanks. That one I had missed. However, I'm now getting this error
as a result of the "bind" statement:

"The length of sequence of input names (1) must be equal to the length
of the sequence of input nodes (0)."

Seems I have one too many arguments, but not sure which one.

Don,
Didn't actually know they were optional, but I always use them
Sounds like it might only be partially supported then, I use all three
without any problem in 3.0.1.
Hmm, I've had this one before.....It is something to do with the
instance('instanceid')! Basically the function is specifying that the
parameter before (data) is the input to be linked up to! And this should be
the input, is this correctly set up to your instance id?

I tried different things in the "instance()" function and the "data"
argument that follows, just to see what would happen. The initial page
runs again, but it doesn't properly display the content of the form.

Here's my model:

<xforms:model id="main-model">
  <xforms:instance id="formatted">
   <formated-instance xmlns="">
        <span>
        </span>
   </formated-instance>
  </xforms:instance>
  <xforms:instance id="main">
   <instance xmlns="">
    <action/>
   </instance>
  </xforms:instance>
  <xforms:bind nodeset="instance('formatted')"
calculate="saxon:serialize(xxforms:call-xpl('oxf:/config/theme/format.xp
l','data', instance('main'),'data')/*,'html')"/>
  <xforms:submission id="main-submission" method="post"
action="/toolEvaluation"/>
</xforms:model>

Try removing saxon:serialize and putting that in an xforms:output

<xforms:bind nodeset="instance('formatted')"
calculate="xxforms:call-xpl('oxf:/config/theme/format.xpl','data',
instance('main'),'data')"/>

<xforms:output value="saxon:serialize(instance('formatted'),'html')"
mediatype="text/html"/>

That should do it

Ryan/Don,

The restriction only applies to the XForms upload control. Other
controls work just fine with replace="instance".
