Form no longer displays after file download
« on: March 12, 2024, 08:42:56 PM »
I have a webForm that works fine, mostly. I added the  -File Upload- field to the form to save a file.  As far as I can tell this form is almost identical to the web26 example, except that I save the file to a blob in the record.

Now the file uploads and saves, I've checked in the postgres backend and it's there.

The problem is that I can now no longer edit that row, it just comes up blank.
See attached images

I'm lost as to what's going on.  Any help appreciated.

Update
After  conversations with Bruce it was found this only happens when the form is called as a popup.

The problem ended up being having the blob field in the field field of the file upload control properties
changing that fixed it

Indeed, the file field can (should?) be blank. It's designed to accept the file name.
the "Save into Blob Field" setting should be used for blob fields.
