Error generating output file for page id NewForm.

Submitted by koumoua on Wed, 05/14/2014 - 17:53
Hi,

I get this error message below when generating my form. Where do I fix the issue? I've looked at all of the bindings for each field and they are pointing correctly to the XML tree. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Error message: "An error occurred during page and controller generation.Details
Error generating output file for page id NewForm. Unable to generate preview for page id NewForm. This means that the preview will not work, and it is unlikely that your page will work at deployment. The most common cause of this error is an invalid XPath defined for one of the bindings, so please check the details entered for this page.

I don't have any custom controls on my form. Only some hidden fields w/ process variables. I do have a repeat layout on the form. I've narrowed it down to a single field within the repeating layout. I've removed it, re-added it, re-built the field, and it still errors on that specific field. It's already part of the XML structure and I've made sure all bindings were correct on it but it still errors on it. When that field is gone, the page generates successfully.

Is the repeating structure just the 'standard' repeat or is it created as part of a composite control? What is the composite control that contains the repeat? What type of control is the field within the repeat that causes the issue?

It would also be useful to know some of the key settings on the Properties panel and the Events panel (if events defined) for the field that causes the issue.

Abdul.
