Problem

'The error code (9230) was received. Invalid form: root container is missing.'

Solution

This error can occur in runtime if the fm2 form has been created with Lycia3 version prior to 7.1.2161 and then used with higher version of Lycia3.
It's caused by changes in the fm2 form file format introduced in Lycia3.
