HELP forms are white in developer

derk.hulshof · April 11, 2017, 11:34am

Hi all,

I just restarted my system and all my forms in Servoy Developer are white no elements appear on it but are visible in the outline and properties.

When running the application is works well.

Someone know how to fix this…

Servoy 803
windows 10
java 8 latest

There might be a custom web component in there that crashes the editor. Or maybe a custom service (NG) if all forms are the same…
When you open a form editor in developer, in the workspace log (your workspace/.metadata/.log) a line containing an URL appears.

Take that line, open a browser window, start browser development tools (CTRL+I for chrome, firefox, F12 for IE) and go to console. Then paste the URL from the log in there and see if you get any errors in browser console.
Edit: I assumed you are using the HTML 5 based editor.

Weird thing is I didnt change any ng component (custom made) today, only tested some data.
It operates normally this morning.

In the .log there is an error

The browser console gives a error:

Something is wrong there…
But the information listed in the browser console doesn’t really help pinpointing the problem.
Not sure what browser you used, but do you get similar errors if you open it in a different browser? (chrome, firefox)

First I suggest that you move to 8.1.2 or 8.1.3 rc, because 8.0.3 is already some versions behind. It is possible that the root of the problem was fixed already.
Also please check for an exception in application server log file as well at the time you opened the form editor.

If the above steps don’t help, next we’d have to use the browser debugger to really find what is behind those two errors in browser console, or monitor/log web-socket traffic.

I tried to update the client before, but running into a lot of angular errors. Thats why I stick by v 803 and update in the future.

I just update it again (from 803 to 812) and running into angular injection errors

Also retrieving 284 warning about nog existing dataproviders

All I can say is:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2104 … ormodulerr

One thing you can do to get clearer errors is in [8.1.2_install]\developer\plugins\servoy_ngclient_8.1.3.3032.jar\war\js\ copy angular_1.5.8.js on top of angular_1.5.8.min.js (so overwrite it).
Then you might get a more human readable/helpful error. I created a case to use by default non-minified libs while in developer: SVY-11039.

For example you should get something like this instead:```
Error: [$injector:unpr] Unknown provider: $modalProvider ← $modal ← $applicationService ← $editorContentService


We saw a similar error message when upgrading recently to an even newer angular version due to dependencies of custom components to older/incompatible angular modules such as angular-animate.
So some libs in some custom components might need to be updated to same/compatible angular version.

In any case, this needs a bit of debugging.
One option that should be faster then sending messages on the forum until we see what needs to be updated/changed would be to create a private case to which you attach your workspace.

Andrei_Costescu · April 11, 2017, 4:31pm

This is what I get (with the trick above of copying non minified angular on top of the min file):

angular_1.5.8.min.js:68 Uncaught Error: [$injector] Failed to instantiate module editorContent due to:
Error: [$injector] Failed to instantiate module servoyApp due to:
Error: [$injector] Failed to instantiate module servoy-components due to:
Error: [$injector] Failed to instantiate module mobileChilddeftype due to:
Error: [$injector] Module 'mobileChilddeftype' is not available! You either misspelled the module name or forgot to load it. If registering a module ensure that you specify the dependencies as the second argument.

I see the nice login screen in 8.1.3 rc. Form editor works as well.
All I had to do was change in “resources\components\mobile\META-INF” the Bundle-SymbolicName prop. to mobile (it was something like childdeftype)
You should move those out from the resources project as well each into their own web package project as the use of resources project for web packages has been deprecated.

Because of that attribute it wouldn’t find the js files in that package (folder was mobile, package symbolic name was different). So before the angular error it gave errors about not finding those js files.
