I have deployed several smart forms. Most users can use them without issue. However some users only get the error.

Resolution


There is an illegal character in the group: zz_Project_BOON_Quality
Looking at the debug in normal text, you don't see anything funny with zz_Project_BOON_Quality.

But if you look at it in n hex editor, you can see the 1F (marked as a .) right after the zz before the underscore.

If you try to create a group in AD with the 1F character in, you will get an error when I copy the character from the error log file in notepad and paste it in between “test” and “illegal” ...

Client found the issue with the Group , removed members from it and will recreate the group
