unable to create map: form layer does not exist #491

Closed pjdohertygis closed 8 years ago

pjdohertygis commented 8 years ago

The Mountain Rescue Association is filling out a GeoForm and getting this "error: unable to create map: form layer does not exist".

This has been confirmed by multiple people - I will gather more information on their device. Any ideas?

Here is a GeoNet post that describes similar symptoms: https://geonet.esri.com/thread/170430

Most likely, the layer that it was configured with was removed from the webmap or the layer is is not a feature layer.

Negative - confirmed it is in the web map and works for me as an admin but not for two users (so far).

However - how about if it were a feature layer Shared with and Organization but also with a Group that were not members of?

One person has the following configuration.

1 - On a PC 2 - Chrome and Firefox

The other:

  1. Mac
  2. Chrome

Ok - it appears the issue was resolved when I added these two people to a Group where the service, web map, and app were stored.

But they were shared with the Organization and they were members of this Organization.

Interesting - so probably not a bug but I'd suggest an enhancement for a more descriptive error message so Users know how to fix it.

Thanks, I'll adjust for the confusion.
