Error: "The document information panel was unable to load"

Hello,
I have created a custom document content type that uses a specified word template for a sharepoint document library for contracts and offers, and added a few custom columns in the document library as well. The word template launches succesfully when creating a new item in the document library, but the problem arises when I add custom columns to the word template content type. When the document loads in Word, I get the following error: "The Document Information Panel was unable to load. The document will continue to open. For more information, contact your system administrator." And in details:
"Document Information Panel cannot create a new, blank form.
Document Information Panel cannot open the form. To fix this problem, contact your system administrator.
Form template: http://servername/sitename/proppanel.xsn
The following DataObject either cannot be created or cannot be initialized: list_033AA217-8906-447E-A604-A300F51D4030
Document Information Panel cannot add the following object to the DataObjects collection: list_033AA217-8906-447E-A604-A300F51D4030
list_033AA217-8906-447E-A604-A300F51D4030 could not be added to the DataObjects collection.
The following item already exists in the collection: list_033AA217-8906-447E-A604-A300F51D4030"
Interestingly enough, I have two web applications running on the same server that I have tried to implement this on, and on the other it works flawlessly, meaning that the Document Information Panel launches successfully and I can edit the columns associated with that content type and store the values in a document library. I have also tried to save the DIP template from the working web application and use it as the default DIP template on the other application, but that doesn't work either.
I have also tried to browse through all options and configurations in the application settings in CA and SSP, but to no avail. Any suggestions about what might be causing this problem or how to fix it would be greatly appreciated.

I have made the same thing that Kirikou has suggested and I was able to recreate the broken library. The problem is that Kirikou's way has failed on my Share Point staging installation:

  • The Document Information Panel was unable to load.

    Platform: SharePoint 2013, Office 2013.
    Background: When you open an Office document from SharePoint users get this error:
    The Document Information Panel was unable to load. The document will continue to load. For more information, contact your system administrator."
    "The form cannot be opened. To fix this problem, contact the form designer. Form template:
    http://<site address>/../proppanel.xsn. The XML Schema for the form template has an invalid value for the following attribute: location." 
    I tried running this fix: http://www.cb-net.co.uk/microsoft-articles/2063-sharepoint-2010-templates-and-document-information-panel-errors, but it kept saying that it couldn’t see the url that
    I specified (I did check this carefully); think it might only apply to SharePoint 2010 – perhaps the shell syntax is different in 2013.
    Can anyone help me out?

    Hi Alex,
    According to your description, my understanding is that the error occurred when opening a document from SharePoint.
    Is this document information panel customized?
    I recommend to re-edit the document information panel template to see if the issue still occurs.
    Please go to the Library setting > click the corresponding content type(need to enable managed of content types in Advanced settings) > click Document Information Panel settings.
    If the issue still occurs, please check if the command below can help(change the site URL and the library name in the code):
    Apply-Fix -siteUrl "http://your site URL "
    function Apply-Fix($siteUrl)
    clear

  • The Document Information Panel was unable to load. The document will continue to open ?

    The lookup column is creating the problem , you can find powerscript solution to fix this issue , please check this -

    Hi,
    For a better troubleshooting, I suggest to do as follows:
    1. Please try to update the Location column's schema by following the steps below.
     1) Go to Site Settings -> "Site Columns"
     2) Click on "Location", after the page is opened. Don't modify any settings, click "OK"  to forcibly update the field's schema.
    2. Re-edit the document information panel template to see if the issue still occurs.
    Please go to the Library setting > click the corresponding content type(need to enable managed of content types in Advanced settings) > click Document Information Panel settings.

  • Catastrophic failure -- The Document Information Panel was unable to load

    I have a content type that has a document template and a custom document information panel associstaed with it. For most users, these work without issues.
    Some users are reporting, however, that they receive the following series of messages when trying to create a new document from the content type:
    You are currently working offline.
    Here, the user can choose either Try to Connect or Stay Offline.
    If the user clicks Try to Connect, the following error message is displayed:
    Clicking OK results in the document loading. The DIP loads, but two fields that pull values from a SharePoint list are blank.
    Again, this happens for only a handful of users, so it seems like it's an issue with either their local PC or their connection to SharePoint.
    So far, I have tried the following:
    Repair Office 2010 installation
    Removed all locally cached versions of both the document template (.dotx) and the custom DIP (.xsn)
    Verified user permissions for the SharePoint site and the SharePoint lookup list
    Based on some other posts I've seen, checked to make sure that InfoPath is installed and that IPEDINTL.DLL
    is present at
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\1033

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that the Document Information Panel was unable to load.
    I recommend to go to the
    Document Type Advanced Settings, click Edit template, go to
    File, click on Inspect, click on Remove All behind
    Custom XML Data.
    Here is a similar blog for your reference:

    If your list contains lookup columns, you can refer to:

  • Is it possible to have two Excel workbooks open at the same time but only have one show the Document Information Panel?

    We are using SharePoint 2010 and Excel 2010. In SharePoint, we have created a custom content type that uses an Excel workbook template along with a Document Information Panel (DIP -- an InfoPath form) that always displays when a workbook of this custom
    content type is opened.  That's all working fine.  However, if one of those Workbooks is open with the DIP displayed and the user opens another Excel workbook, a DIP displays for the 2nd workbook even if it's just a regular workbook,
    i.e. not one of the custom content type.  If the user closes one of the DIPs, both close.  And if the user displays one of the DIPs again, both display. 
    Is there any way to separate out the DIP display for specific workbooks during the same Excel instance so that it shows in one but not in the other?  Or is this just something we have to live with (and train our users on)? 
    Thanks in advance.  Carol.

    Whether the DIP shows or not is a client side toggle, not something tied to an individual workbook.  So if you are using the same client instance then the DIP will display or hide based on what you did in the other workbook.  YOu might be able
    to create a macro that would display or hide it, but that's a lot of work for little advantage.  I would train the users and live with it.

  • Office 2013 applications crash with Document Information Panel open

    I am using Office Professional Plus 2013 to work with documents that reside in SharePoint 2010 document libraries.
    The content type(s) in that SharePoint site collection are set to automatically show the Document Information Panel when opened in Office applications.  By opening any of these documents in their desktop app (via browser or Skydrive Pro), I am able
    to check-out and edit content; but the check-in step always crashes the application, giving a pop-up error: "An unknown errors has caused <office program> to stop working."
    By choosing to NOT automatically show the Doc Info Panel for these SharePoint documents, Office 2013 programs can handle everything just fine (editing, versioning, etc.).
    If I don't auto-show the Doc Info Panel, but then manually open the panel once I get inside the program, this crashes the program in the same way as before.
    If I save a local copy of a document and show the Doc Info Panel in any way (auto or manual), Office 2013 crashes.
    I couldn't find any postings on this error and I don't see this incompatibility listed in the
    Office 2013 known issues article and was wondering if anyone has had a similar experience?

    I am having the exact same issue.  I have created a Custom Site Column which is defined as a CHOICE.  I do not want to put in a Default so left it blanl but field must be populated.  I then put this into a Document Library Content Type.  
    With documents that are already been uploaded and in the Library when I pull up in Office Web Apps, I can make changes to the document but when I try to save it crashes.   Also, when I pull up document and say edit in Office Web Apps there is no
    way to change information in the Document Information Panel since this does not appear.   (I forgot to mention that I required DIF to display in Content Type also). 
    This only happens on blank column fields when trying to save.  If I do a Quick EDIT of the list and change my blank Choice columns to something(I created as radio buttons) and then go through the process it works OK and will save.  Not sure
    if this pertains to your issue but, I just prepopulate all columns with what the should be,  when a brand new document from word, excel etc is created it is created from the Desktop version of Word Excel and when IT saves to SharePoint, I get
    a message to choose information to put into properties before it actually saves. 
    Hope this helps a little.   

  • KB2837583 CU for Office 2010 Professional Plus breaks multiple line fields document information panel

    When we install CU KB2837583 for Office 2010 Professional Plus I get an error on the document information panel in Word while saving the document to SharePoint 2010.
    The error shows a red border around the multiple lines field "Adres" saying that the field contains errors.
    We had this issue before with CU
    KB2760758, this was a bug and Microsoft has fixed this with Service Pack 2. Now we have the same issue again with this cumulative update.
    Microsoft knows this bug and
