In alfresco a node is referenced by NodeRef which combine s store protocol,store identifier and node it ,it looks like workspace://SpacesStore/faaf73a0-ff4a-4f75-a5a3-21c9e00d4f26.

It seems a wrong parameter（cm:folder）was passed as NodeRef to metadata webscript

Thanks for the response.

I think that much is reasonably obvious - the question is why is http://localhost:8080/share/service/components/form calling api/metadata with a content type instead of a nodeRef?

OK - it's my fault...

I'll give a little explanation in case it's helpful to someone

In site-data/extensions I'm changing things for a certain type on the folder details page

<extension>
    <modules>
        <module>
            <id>My Folder Details Page</id>
            <version>1.0</version>
            <evaluator type="my.type.component.evaluator">
                <params>
                    <nodetype>{http://alfresco.my.org/model/custom/1.0}myFolder</nodetype>
                </params>
            </evaluator>

because you can't use evaluator.doclib.metadata.nodeType I've written a class that extends ExtensionModuleEvaluator and the mistake is connected to that.

There's a whole load of other bits behind it but that's the main reason.
