Issue while publishing forms form-creation-fails
After users update to AEM Forms as a Cloud Service version 2024.5.16461:
Some users may face issue while creating forms, the issue is such that when a user creates a form, the following error message pops up in the creation dialog box:
A server error occurred. Try again after sometime.
Cause cause-form-creation-fails
The issue occurs because the author publishes the form without first publishing the template used in it. This results in the addition of the jcr:uuid and other protected and system-generated properties to the <template-path>/initial/jcr:content node, causing failures in subsequent form creation.
Workaround resolution-form-creation-fails
To resolve the issue, perform the following steps:
- Ensure that the template you use in your form does not have the
jcr:uuidand other system generated protected properties at the path<template-path>/initial/jcr:content node. - Publish the template explicitly using the template console.
- Now, when your template is published, try creating new forms using the template.
- If the template you used updates in the future releases, Publish the template again (as given in the step 2) to prevent form creation failure issues.
