      Unable to view user task form in business-central if a task variable set as *java.util.Date *type is set and a custom task form is not generated.

      The following error happens when trying to view task form in server.log:

      14:55:28,873 ERROR [freemarker.runtime] (http-127.0.0.1:8080-4) Template processing error: "Can't convert the date to string, because it is not known which parts of the date variable are in use.

      If a custom task form is generated to User Task with date field set as Short Date or Timestamp it works well.

      • issue happens only if generate process definition form, and default form for User Task (not generate form for HT);
      • once a form is generated to HT, it works well;
