Form Builder no longer works after moving to new server

[bowenac]

Moved some sites to a new server which use Form Builder and they are no longer working.

The pages that should display the form are using the easy embed option form-builder/basic-contact

Apparently the client was told by the author that they needed Swift Mailer because the forms were responding very slow. Then they installed form builder 2.5 via ftp and now the forms do not display. Anyone familiar with the below expception method? Or can point me in the right direction.

When viewing the page while not logged in it displays internal server error where the embed should be.

While logged in as a super user it shows the following exception:

Error: Exception: Method FormBuilder::setTemplateVersion does not exist or is not callable in this context (in /var/www/example/wire/core/Wire.php line 349)

Like I mentioned above, they attempted to install a new version of form builder via ftp I guess, I can see two different directorys for form builder which seems odd.

site\modules\.FormBuilder\FormBuilder.module

site\modules\FormBuilder\FormBuilder.module

So one with a period before FormBuilder and one without, all of which seem to have the same files and code. I checked FormBuilder.module of both and they both say they are version 22 which I assume 2.2 so not sure what they meant by version 2.5 as apparently the latest version is 2.4. Maybe they got versions mixed up and were talking about PW being version 2.5 as they are running 2.5.3

The form-builder.php template is using this which is what is throwing the error

    <?php
    $forms->setTemplateVersion(2);
    $form = $forms->getFromURL(true);
    echo $form->styles;
    echo $form->scripts;
    ?>

It seems some FormBuilder files are missing. Have you copied the FormBuilder files as well? They are in:

/site/modules/FormBuilder/

Also you can easily reinstall FormBuilder and export the forms from the development version to the live version using the Export tool. I would suggest uploading FormBuilder from the zip file in the Form Builder forum. You might want to post in the FormBuilder forum as well since you can expect a quicker support response by the author.

Yes there are a bunch of files in that folder I dont understand why there are two though. .FormBuilder and FormBuilder

Looking for the formbuilder forum right now thanks.

Ok so I went into the site\modules\FormBuilder\form-builder.php and copied that template and replaced the code in site\templates\form-builder.php and now the form displays and works as I tested it and can see the entries in the Forms in the admin.

But it also shows the good ole Hello World haha under the form. Whats the deal with that? I could hide this for the time being via css but not sure why this is being spit out.

I've never seen a Hello World in the Form Builder. Maybe you could grep "Hello world" in the Form Builder files or in your /site/templates/ files to see where it is coming from?
