Hi Stephanie

Your error I think is because xforms:setValue should be xforms:setvalue.

However, the "ref" attribute of xforms:setvalue is a single node binding (http://www.w3.org/TR/xforms/#action-setvalue) - from your code it looks like you are attempting to update all or part of an instance (ie more than one node) - I don't think that will work.

Instead consider defining a submission to update the instance, and within your xforms:action have an xforms:send to kick off the submission.

Also, instead of calling your XPL directly, an alternative approach is to define a URL in your page-flow.xml which executes the XPL, and call that URL to update your instance.

Regards

Steve

Subject: [ops-users] Error when using xforms:action with xforms:setValue

Hi,

I keep running into errors when trying to run the following code:

<xforms:action ev:event="xforms-ready">

      <xforms:setValue ref="instance('categories-instance')/categories"

            value="xxforms:call-xpl('http://localhost:8080/forms/categories.xpl', instance('categories-instance'),'formatted-output')/*, 'output')"/>

</xforms:action>

The exact error I get each time is: Invalid action: {http://www.w3.org/2002/xforms}setValue. My purpose here is try to populate an instance using a pipeline, but I don’t think it’s even getting there. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong to cause this error? It would probably be better if the error message told me what I was doing wrong, because I’ve seen people use xforms:action with setValue in some of the archives with no errors.

More detail, from the logs:
