Editing Form Template with Adobe Livecycle

Former Member
0 Kudos

I am using SAP Business ByDesign. I have downloaded Adobe Livecycle Designer . When I attempt to edit a form template with ALD, a blank screen appears with the message "Loading form template. Please note that if Adobe LiveCycle Designer does not open automatically it may be because a pop-up window has opened and is hidden by the current screen. Navigate to this pop-up window and take any action necessary." However, there is no pop-up behind the screen.

I also tried downloading the template and opening it in ALD but it gives an error message. I am using ALD ES4. Please help me. This is very urgent

When I tried to work out from browser (for which ALD Add-in needs to be installed), it didn't workout for me through Internet Explorer. But, it worked for me only when viewed through Chrome with IE tab. You can give it a try. Use Chrome with IE Tab extension instead of Internet Explorer.

When you opened in ALD software, what kind of error you are getting?

I downloaded full version of ALD from the download center but I am getting this error when I try to open the .xdp file.

Cannot Load Schema, Check that the path is correct and the file is a valid XML schema file.

I downloaded the IE tab for chrome and installed the ALD Add-in. Chrome crashes everytime I click on Open->Adobe Life Cycle Designer.

It says something like Please wait while pop-up opens and then chrome crashes.

You have been really helpful so far thankyou so much. Is there a way I can directly email you or a time you are online that I can chat with you while i am working on this. I might be asking to much but I hope you can help. This is kind of urgent and the client is waiting for the work to be done and I have no help.

That is because, path to Main Schema is not valid. You need to reassign. When you download the template you should also have a MainSchema.xsd file in the archive. So select that file in the connection property of DataConnection.

refer below screenshot.

Hi Alfia,

I get the same error, but I simply ignore it and continue working on the XDP, I have found useful to link the XDP with an XML set of data rather than using the test xml data, to do so I go to the Output history of a document (Sales Order, Purchase Order, etc.) and "save as" XML, then link it via the "Form Properties" item on the "file menu".

Hope it helps,

Marcos

Hi,

First of all, there are two ALD versions available.

  1. ALD browser plugin. you need to install this to work in browser. But this is not user friendly (at least for me).
  2. Full version of ALD. You need to download the template and work offline.

Can you tell me what error message you get while opening the downloaded template?

Have you downloaded ALD from ByDesign Download Center?

After downloading the template, you need to extract the zip file and open the *.xdp file using ALD. Initially, open by right clicking the *.xdp file --> open with --> other programs --> FormDesigner.exe

Thanks so much for your reply.

I have not downloaded ALD from ByDesign Download Center. Where is the download center? How can I do this? I just downloaded Adobe life cycle designer ES4 from some website online.

Please help me. Thanks so much.

Is there any popup blocker in the browser?
