Issue
This occurs when creating a new form and setting the App to use the new form as "New" form. An incorrect URL is generated when trying to create a new SharePoint list item. A 404 error appears on the page.
The URL seems to be missing the Host Name of the URL (ex. https://K2.denallix.com)
Symptoms
A 404 error appears when clicking New Item in SharePoint. The same issue occurs with the Display and Edit forms in K2 Smartforms.Troubleshooting Steps
Complete the following steps:
- Check the URL that it redirects to. Make sure this has a full URL for the TargetURL parameter.
-
https://portal.denallix.com/K2Pages/NewForm.aspx?targetUrl=https%3a%2f%2fk2.denallix.com

%2FLists%2FTest%2FAllItems%2Easpx&RootFolder=&Web=eaff9988%2Dcdce%2D4ef0%2Da213%2D7164da951d51 - Notice how the above URL has a Host name in the Target URL, this is correct. If you only have Form/[FormName] then you will need to check the K2 Settings List.
-
- Also check the Integration.ProcessSharePointSetting table in the Database to see what the Target URL for the form looks like.
- Check the hidden K2 Setting List ([SharepointURL]/lists/K2 Settings). Make sure that the Smartforms Runtime URL is set to the correct Environment Field.
- If this was incorrect, simply set it to the correct environment field/URL and re-activate the site. This will bring in the correct New Item Form.
