AQuAMan

Hello Stewart Burchell ,

Can you please let us know the hotfix name or number  which is required to deploy in on premises server to fix the  

1. Support for new Object Types:
2. Portal
3. AI Skill
4. Report on potentially risky design constructs:
5. Process Models with:
6. Multiple End nodes
7. Send Message nodes
8. Receive Message nodes
9. User Input Tasks with:
10. no Exception paths
11. no Escalations
12. Interface components with no label configured
13. Interface components with no accessibility text configured

Hi - apologies for the slow response on this.

I have discovered that this is due to a change in a release of Appian that causes the fn!xpathdocument() to throw this error when introspecting into some (but not all) Process Models. There is a hotfix for this that you can raise with Appian support. Just mention the error and the fact that it is in the function mentioned and they can apply the hotfix to your environment.

How to resolve this AQUAMAN issue?

Hi Stewart,

Have you had the time to investigate on the issue? I am eagerly waiting for your feedback on the same.

Thanks,

Hi Stewart,

Thanks for your quick acknowledgement. Yeah we are seeing this error for all the process models. Whenever a patch contains a Process Model, this error is blocking the patch analysis. A patch without any process model is successfully processed by Aquaman.

We have further analysed and found that this error surfaced from 18th September, 2023. Prior to that it was all working fine.

FYI. We are currently on Appian Version: 23.2 and 23.3

Please find attached instance of the process model, I have used in examining in my second screenshot in earlier post.

Process Model.xml

Thanks,

Subhadeep

Hi Subhadeep

I am not seeing this/hearing about this anywhere else. Is it for all your process models or just the one that you are examining in your second screenshot? Are you able to send me an instance of one of your process models?

thanks

Stewart

Hi Stewart Burchell/Author,

We are facing issues in Aquaman application while trying to analyse a patch which contains Process Models. Please find the below error:

"An error occurred while evaluating expression: =rule!AQA_ER_identifyObjectType(objects: pv!patchObjects) (Expression evaluation error in rule 'aqa_er_identifyobjecttype' at function a!forEach [line 7]: Error in a!forEach() expression during iteration 1: Expression evaluation error at function a!forEach [line 14]: Error in a!forEach() expression during iteration 1: Expression evaluation error at function 'xpathdocument' [line 23]: A Namespace with the prefix 'n1' has already been declared.) (Data Inputs)"

Please find attached screenshots for reference.

Could you please help me with the same. Thanks.

Regards,

Subhadeep

• The 'Execute Stored procedure' plug-in has been deprecated as this functionality is now part of the base Appian product.

Please refer to jeanalainb0001's comment regarding a modification to the "AQA Tables" database script that is necessary for AquAMan to be compatible with version 23.1 of the Appian Platform.

Make sure to only change the lines referring to `OBJECT_TYPE_ID` 12, (i.e. Interfaces), and not those referring to Object Type 7, Expression Rules.
