Apex class not running from site visualforce page

Hello All,

This issue is really bugging me.
I have a visualforce page which is enabled in the force.com site and I have changed the permission set for guest profile to create,edit etc my custom obejct but still I am not seeing the controller class being run from visualforce page.

 

My visualforce page is
<apex:page sidebar="false" showHeader="true" standardStylesheets="false" standardController="Main_questionaire__c" extensions="QuestionnaireFieldsSite" recordSetVar="sitem" id="thePages" >

<apex:form id="templateForm">
<br></br>
<apex:actionFunction name="sectionStatusJS" action="{!sectionStatus}" reRender="buttonPanel"/>

<p style="text-align:center;font-size:18px">Assessment</p>
<apex:outputPanel id="buttonPanel">


<script>
window.onload=function()
{
sectionStatusJS();
setmyFlag(true);
};
</script>
</apex:outputPanel>

<apex:outputPanel rendered="{!myFlag}">
<apex:pageBlock >
<apex:pageBlockSection id="sectionBlock" title="Sections" columns="4">
<apex:repeat value="{!sectionsStatusLists}" var="section">
<apex:commandButton value=" {!section.Section_Template__r.Section_label__c}" style="text-align:center;">
<apex:param name="sectionId" value="{!section.Section_Template__r.id}"/>
<apex:param name="doRerender" value="true" assignTo="{!doRerender}"/>
</apex:commandButton>
</apex:repeat>
</apex:pageBlockSection>
</apex:pageBlock>
</apex:outputPanel>

</apex:form>
</apex:page>

can you try going to that page when logged in to your Org and see what you get in the debug logs? Just want to make sure it does get called there.

Ya I tried , it works there the controller class constructor and action method from visualforce gets called if I login to my org but when I do through the site the controller class constructor or the action method doesnt get called at all.

So I dont know the issue,is it that the action method or javascript doesnt work from force.com site(which should be)?

 

Thanks

It may be worth trying to make the VF page use the controller as a custom controller rather than use the standard controller and the extension.

<apex:page sidebar="false" showHeader="true" standardStylesheets="false" controller="QuestionnaireFieldsSite" id="thePages" >
Just make sure to set up any record sets etc you need within your controller class.

Hi,

 

You can also check debug logs in the context of site user.

 

Follow this link and debug in the context of site user.

 

Thanks,

Thanks for the recommendations ,I tried changing the controller to be just controller not standard but it doesnt work.

My issue is it doesnt give any errors and it doesnt even call contructor,I had fixed all the authorization issues and if I login through salesforce everything is fine all code works.

So I was wondering if there is any limitation on sites vf page like you cannot have action function or something else.

 

Thanks

 

ForcepowerForcepower
Nope. No such limitation. Does the VF page show up on your site? Was it added to he list of pages allowed to be viewed on the site?

Hmm .

Yes the page shows up on my site but it doesnt call my contructor or even the  action="{!sectionStatus} method but it does call my get methods so I couldnt understand what is the issue.I am trying to debug the third option on the link mentioned by you guys so that I can find what is the issue.

 

Thanks again

newbiembanewbiemba

So I removed my action function and made everything as getter and setter methods on my vf page and now it works.Its wierd not the solution that I was looking for but it works now.

 

Thanks guys for helping me out.

ForcepowerForcepower
Interesting. It looks like that action function was not defined in your controller unless you didn't include it in your posting. The page was probably blowing up on it even before hitting any constructor.
newbiembanewbiemba

While copying and editing I must have missed the name in controller but it is the same function which I called from my vf page. Dont know how and why removing it helped but it works.

 

thanks

Hi,
I am also facing same issue and did not find any solution yet. I have created a custom link in account object and calling community visualforce page. Controller is not calling at all not even construtor. Controller contains page reference method and calling the same method from page action attribute.

If I call same method with out community URL it works fine. Could you please any one help me if you find any solution.

Thanks,
Raghav
