AEM Forms - Attach Files to adaptive E signature forms

[santosh10899]

Team,

I have integrated Adobe E-sign with AEM and I'm able to send agreements for signature to signers. But when i added file attachment field to adaptive form to provide signer to attach additional documents, this is not working and through following 500 error. I have enabled the file attachment while creating cloud configuration for E-sign and AEM integration and I use a free developer account for adobe Esign.

As per the stack trace, you must be testing this use-case with 6.5.7.0 (6.0.234 package) but FYI -this issue was fixed with AEM Forms 6.5.8.0. 

So please upgrade this set-up to SP8 or the later version, you shouldn't see "ClassCastException" while submitting a form with attachment(s) and Adobe Sign. Please let me know in case of any issues further.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for confirming @santosh10899! The new stack trace points to Signer data (malformed / missing), could you please review the configuration helpdoc. In case it is urgent, please raise a ticket with support so that we can review this issue over a screenshare.
