Coral Pathfield not working properly

Hi,

I'm working with AEM 6.5 on-premise with the 6.5.15.0 SP installed, and currently, the pathfield is not working correctly. The dialog to select a path won't open, and in the console, it says next:

Uncaught TypeError: currentColumnEl is undefined

If a value is entered into the input area, for example "/", then the dialog opens appropriately and you can select a path as you wish.

This is the .xml file and how it's currently set up:

                        fieldLabel="Text"
                        name="./text"/>
                    <test
                       jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
                       sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/pathfield"
                       fieldLabel="Test"
                       fieldDescription="Test"
                       name="./test"
                       rootPath="/content/"/>
                </items>
            </column>
        </items>
    </content>
</jcr:root>

Is this a bug, or am I missing something? Thanks in advance.

Hi @matzika,

The issue is caused by incorrect value in rootPath property, it should not end with /.

Use:

rootPath="/content"

instead:

rootPath="/content/"

Full config will look like this:

                    <test
                       jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
                       sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/pathfield"
                       fieldLabel="Test"
                       fieldDescription="Test"
                       name="./test"
                       rootPath="/content"/>
