It does NOT occur in the XMLUI, but seems to only occur with a combination of JSPUI + Initial Questions + Workflow approval steps. I've logged it at: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-2043 We'll have to find someone to look into it and resolve it. - Tim On 6/27/2014 10:15 AM, Tim Donohue wrote: > Hi Sebastien, > > OK, now I think I'm finally understanding things...sorry, it was not > initially clear what your goal was and how you were getting this error. > > It sounds like you're hitting an error during the *Workflow Approval > Steps* after you've re-enabled the "Initial Questions" step. > > I need to dig in deeper here, but it's possible there's a bug here > that we've overlooked. > > - Tim > > > On 6/27/2014 9:46 AM, Sebastien Ival wrote: >> Hi Tim, >> >> The default setup is what we are looking at.
