Can you do some tests on this? there are two places we should debug this:

The Class area:

On line 103 check what is the value received from getDynamicForm

We can also check what is the value from the model at line 100 when it calls the getComponents method in the model.

The view:

Here in the view where the error is found, we are calling the form value which I would expect to be null, if there are no components found, let me know what you see there.
