InfoPath Dev

Hi, We are working through a number of scenarios with qRules mostly using the SaveToSharePoint command. We have 12 forms that we're developing currently that all save their attachments back to SharePoint. I'm running into troubles with one of our forms where I can't add the simplest SaveToSharePoint commands without getting the error: "Some rules were not applied. The parameter is incorrect." Exposing the Success, Command, Result and Error fields onto my form shows me nothing. It's like it's failing before it gets to qRules. I've tried creating a brand new form, wiring up an attachment, ensuring it works, and then copying that command over to my "broken" form - but that doesn't work. This only shows me the error when running it in InfoPath, I get no error when publishing the form to SharePoint. The attachment field simply shows me the attachment as if qRules didn't execute. So - I'm wondering if something went haywire with the qRules injection, but I don't know how to extract the injection to try again. I tried re-injecting, but after a warning that I've already injected my form with this version of qRules, it didn't fix anything. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated Thanks Dan

Hi Dan,

When is this error showing up? You say the Success, Error and Result nodes don't show anything, so I'm wondering when the error is coming up. If on load, I would check anything executing on Form Load. Perhaps Disable data connections or Form Load rules, one at a time, to discover which one is causing the issue.

If your hunch about something incorrect in the qRules injection is strong, send us the form and we can examine it (you can attach forms via the Options tab). Or try injecting a new rule and make sure that a simple qRules command, like GenerateGuid, works without issues.

Thanks.

Thanks Ernesto, the error only shows up when I try to execute the SaveToSharePoint command (on change for the Attachment field). I've used this method successfully in other forms.

I tried to attach my file using the Options tab, but my file is 139k and the upload is limited to 128k. If you can send me an email address I can send it to you that way.

Here is my Command. It's set to run when the Attachment field changes.

concat("SaveToSharePoint /url=http://devsp01/sites/ewlc/Form%20Attachments /xpath=/my:myFields/my:CompletionRTCDataInputSection/my:RepeatingSection/my:RepeatingSectionOtherDocuments/my:OtherDocuments /name=danTest1" /overwrite=true /dsnamews=CopyIntoItems")

(I added the /dsnamews data connection and parameter as a test, but it didn't change anything.)

I also tried the GenerateGuid command on a button and I get the same error. I attached a screen shot of that setup.

Send the form to Support AT Qdabra DOT Com please.

For some reason, the Qdabra Rules data source is not set to retrieve data every time the form is opened. Have you tried re-injecting the template?

Oh, and also it looks like the data connection was manually walked through via the wizard. I'm just going to clean up this template and email it back to you, okay?

Thanks. And yes, I did try re-injecting qRules

 As an update - I tried enabling "Automatically retrieve..." in my form and that seems to work. I'm sorry for the confusion, and thanks yet again for the help

What I'm concerned about (and I mentioned in my email) is when you walk through the data connection manually, then re-inject, you can end up with a couple qRules schema files - and you'll run into troubles if you admin approve / sandbox for browser. Use the template I emailed back to you - it only has the one schema file. :-)

Will do. Thanks again.

I want to add a bit more information to this thread, since I had this same error message yesterday, and it would have helped me to have found some specific info on when this error occurs.

This error message occurs when a data field is set in a data source (via rules) and the data source has not been queried.

So - if you have a data connection that is not set to query on load, for example, and you have a rule that tries to set a data field in that data source before the query has been executed, you will get this specific error of "The parameter is incorrect". Obviously, setting query fields (if the data connection has them) prior to executing the query will not cause this error - it is specific to trying to set data fields in a data source where the query has not been executed.

In my case, this was a different XML data connection, and I had copied some rules from one place to another - but not the rule that queried the data source.
