Root Cause

The root cause of this problem is a defect in Pegasystems’ code/rules.

The content of ActionAutoSubmit:
 
<SCRIPT>
    <%
    String strMessages = tools.getPrimaryPage().getMessagesAll();
        if(strMessages.length() == 0)
        {
            tools.appendString("if(window.name != null && typeof(window.name) != \"undefined\" && window.name == \"actionIFrame\" ){");
                    tools.appendString("pega.util.Event.addListener(window,\"load\",doSubmit);");
            tools.appendString("}else{");
            /*BUG-168564: Updated doSubmit to call after loading all files. */
            tools.appendString("pega.u.d.attachOnload(doSubmit);}");
        }
    %>
</SCRIPT>

The doSubmit() simple never gets called because it is attached to an event that has already occurred.

Resolution

This issue is resolved through the following local change: 

Please do a save as on ActionAutoSubmit and create a new ActionAutoSubmitLocal (Any name) and have the following code in it. Make sure your search again flow action references the ActionAutoSubmitLocal in the HTML tab

<SCRIPT>
<%
String strMessages = tools.getPrimaryPage().getMessagesAll();
if(strMessages.length() == 0)
{
tools.appendString("doSubmit();");
}
%>
</SCRIPT>
