Failed to save form + Errors with 3.0.21, 3.0.22WIP, 4.0WIP
I have the same problem that Stephen mentions in his post and have attempted to address it with a variety of methods. I've listed my current setup, a description of my issue, and my attempts to resolve it (without success) below.
My Setup
Umbraco version 7.1.6 assembly: 1.0.5350.25714
Umbraco Contour 3.0.21, 3.0.22WIP, 4.0WIP.
.NET Framework version V4.5
Description of the issue
When creating a form, I am eventually (quickly) unable to save the form after adding/modifying/deleting a field. This affects version 3.0.21 and 3.0.22WIP as of 10/28.
The issue isn't limited to a specific type of form field. Regardless of what form fields I edit (and even if I'm simply saving an existing template), I'm unable to save changes to labels, field removals, etc. Stephen describes the issue well.
Inspecting the header response, I see:
{d: false}
My trials are listed below:
Reinstall 3.0.21
In an attempt to reinstall the plugin, I uninstalled 3.0.21. The uninstall script leaves an umbraco form dll in the bin folder and two references in the web.config file causing the site to break completely with a YSOD on both the frontend and admin panel.
Thankfully, after deleting the dll file and web.config references to umbraco.forms, I was able to access the site again. I reinstalled the current version and the issue persists.
Edit Web Config
Based on a Google search, I tried adding the following to the web.config file per this article. The modification had no effect on my ability to save the form regardless of which version of contour/forms I had installed.
I also tried the following (which also did not resolve the issue):
Install Build 3.0.22WIP
I have tried reinstalling using the latest build (3.0.22WIP). That specific build does not include the link to Contour form editor in the admin.
I made a guess at the link ({siteurl}/umbraco/contour) and was able to see the form editor. However, the form list was not present in the middle column of the admin panel.
Using that build, I was entirely unable to save any forms at all regardless of whether I used a template or created a form from scratch.
Install Build 4.0WIP.4.0.0-Build.50.zip
I have tried installing Umbraco Forms ver. 4.0WIP using UmbracoForms.package.4.0WIP.4.0.0-Build.50.zip. After installing, the forms link is present in the left navigation of the admin menu. However, there are no options to create a form. What I see, instead, is the following error:
Could not load control: '/umbraco/plugins/umbracocontour/formsdashboard.ascx'.
Error message: System.Web.HttpException (0x80004005): The file '/umbraco/plugins/umbracocontour/formsdashboard.ascx' does not exist. at System.Web.UI.Util.CheckVirtualFileExists(VirtualPath virtualPath) at System.Web.Compilation.BuildManager.GetVPathBuildResultInternal(VirtualPath virtualPath, Boolean noBuild, Boolean allowCrossApp, Boolean allowBuildInPrecompile, Boolean throwIfNotFound, Boolean ensureIsUpToDate) at System.Web.Compilation.BuildManager.GetVPathBuildResultWithNoAssert(HttpContext context, VirtualPath virtualPath, Boolean noBuild, Boolean allowCrossApp, Boolean allowBuildInPrecompile, Boolean throwIfNotFound, Boolean ensureIsUpToDate) at System.Web.UI.TemplateControl.LoadControl(VirtualPath virtualPath) at Umbraco.Web.UI.Umbraco.Dashboard.UserControlProxy.OnInit(EventArgs e)
At this point, I can certainly say that I've invested a lot of time encountering errors and trying to troubleshoot a paid plugin. I'm willing to attempt a workaround or a fix, but I'm very frustrated that this is happening.
I understand that the plugin is still in development, but it fails spectacularly at its primary purpose.
Sorry to say - looks like it's not resolved. I still get the error on the new version. I'm only able to create the simplest of forms before it begins to throw the error.
I keep seeing references to a revamped / rebranded, "Umbraco Forms" plugin. Is there any chance of a release in the near future?

What do I have to do to get this plugin to work?
Following up on this post. The issue seems to be resolved in the most recent release 3.0.22.
Great thanks for the update!

Sorry for double post:
I meant to add - I don't mind sharing my code / setup with you if you want to see it. Let me know.
