    Hi Greg,

    Can you please re-phrase your question?  Are you asking about the GPS location information?  Or the location of the mobile client files on the server?

     

    Thanks,
    Ari

    In MBPM mobile we have locate (via GPS) button. Is there any possibility to get this location serverside?

    Yes, it is possible.  You need to have 2 fields on your form, and they must be named "realLat" and "realLong" in order to gather the latitude and longitude, respectively.

    I believe that this is in the documentation or release notes.

    Thanks for your answer, but do you have any example? This is not workin for me unfortunatly :(

     

    I didn't found anything in release notes. I have no other documentation. Is any available on OpenText site? I have problems to find some more than release note.

    Your sample process seems to work fine in my environment (tested from my Android phone), so it must be something else with your environment that isn't right.  Everything looks fine in the Designer.

    I have problems on my Samsung Galaxy S2 and Samsung Galaxy Tab.

    I will try to forward all my problems to helpdesk.

    Thanks for your help

    I doubt that it has anything to do with which device you are using to access the mobile site.  I'm guessing that something is wrong with your mobile site installation itself.  Are you using the correct version of MBPM with the mobile site?  I believe it is 9.1 SR1 at a minimum that you need.  If you have that, then something with your installation/configuration is probably wrong.  Can you submit mobile forms that don't have location fields?

    I have latest MBPM service pack and hotfix. I have problems with solution i had attached to my post 28th March.

    I understand that you are having problems with that solution.  What I am asking is, can you submit any other forms using the mobile client?  For example, forms that don't have the realLat and realLong fields?  Perhaps your mobile site is not working correctly in general and your issue has nothing to do with the Location fields.

    If I will set this two fields as hidden (on action properties) this form is working fine.

    That is strange.  Your sample solution works fine for me when the fields are visible.
