InfoPath Form Library not working

I have noticed after rebooting our server that all the infopath form libraries are not working. When I try and add a document I receive an error instead of the InfoPath form opening. I have also noticed that there is a "Relink Documents to this Library"
Option in the Library Settings. I have tried relinking the documents but still no change.
Error Message is received:
The Document Could not be created.
The required application may not be installed properly or the template for this document cannot be opened.

Resolved. Re-installed Office.

Forms Library Not Working Correctly in Records Center

Greetings,
I have a scenario where I have created a form library in a records center. This form library has the same InfoPath form published to it as is in the primary collaborative site. In the collaborative site, based on certain conditions, a workflow
moves the form entry to the records center; all of this work correctly.
However, the entry in the form library is recognized as a plain XML file, this can be seen by the file type icon. When I click on the item I want it to open using the InfoPath form. Is there something special I need to do to make this work?
Thank you in advance for your suggestions!
Bob

Hi，
Based on your description, my understanding is that when you use workflow to move the form entry from collaborative site to the records center, you can't open the items in the records center using the InfoPath form.
Could you please offer how do you use workflow to move the form entry from collaborative site to the records center?
You said "However, the entry in the form library is recognized as a plain XML file". Does the items looks like the following:
You said "When I click on the item I want it to open using the InfoPath form". if the items look like the following, Then you can open the items using the InfoPath form.
I have done a test in my SharePoint, I create two new form library with the same infopath form template.
then I create a workflow "Create List Item" action to move the form entry from the first form library to the second form library. Then I can open the items from the second form library using the InfoPath form.
If I misunderstanding your issue, Please offer some screenshot about issue, I will help you better.

Hi Lisa,
I use the Submit File action in SharePoint Designer to move the file.
To be able to reproduce my same issue, you would need to provision your records center in a different site collection.
I have the same InfoPath form published to the form library in the records center and have created the correct link to open the form; using formserver.aspx?XmlLocation=... However, I still can't get the item (in the records center) to open.

Searching items in InfoPath form library

Hi,
I have an Infopath form library, in which I have done the property promotion and exposed some of the columns.
I am trying for search functionality. How to search items in infopath form library? Is there any OOB webparts which can be used to display search criteria and the results. I do not have access to Central Admin, and hence cannot create Managed metadata properties,
but the columns are exposed in InfoPath form.
The infopath form has repeating table as well.
How to achieve the search in InfoPath form library?
Thanks

Hi Venkatzeus,
Have you tried using contextual search for this InfoPath form library?
Please go to site setting page->Site collection ->Site Collection Administration section->Search Settings page, select the value "Show and default to contextual scope" for option "Site Collection Search Dropdown Mode",
then please go to the InfoPath form library to test the search using "This list:YourFormlibraryName" dropdown (and wait a full crawl if needed).
See more information from below.

Form does not work

Hi
I use Adobe Livecycle Designer7.0 English and Acrobat7.0.8 Japanese. I made forms to upload to Workflow Server. One form I made does not work at all when the form is opened in the Form Manager.
It is strange that the PDF preview of the Designer works well.
1. Page Counter
In the master page of the form I set a page counter field from the custom library. In the preview it works well but when the form is opened from Form Manager it does not work. It looks like "Page ##/##".
2. Font is not shown
I put a button in the form. The font of the button is set to "MS UI Gothic", but when the form is opened from Form Manager the font of the button is "KozukaMincho".
3. JavaScript does not work
I wrote javascript to change the caption of fields like this.
----- form1.#subform[0].Button1::click - (Javascript, client)
FieldA.rawValue = "test";
FieldB.rawValue = "test2";
This script does not work too when the form is opened.
These issues are basic but I do not know where is wrong. Because no error message appears when I test the form in the PC.
Please advise about these issues.
Thanks,
Akira

Hi Jared,<br /><br />I am very glad to read your reply. <br />I added a button with the script you wrote in previous reply and found that Form Manager changed the root tag. <br /><br />The xsd file I define to the data is like this<br /><br />b <Message> //rootnode name <br /><br /> <Heade></Header><br /> <Contents><br /> <FieldA></FieldA><br /> ......<br /> </Contents><br /> <Footer><Footer><br /></Message><br /><br />So, I set the structure of the form like this.<br /><br />b <Message> //This is name of contents area<br /><br /> <Header></Header> //Subform name<br /> <Contents> //Subform name<br /> <FieldA></FieldA><br /> ......<br /> </Contents><br /> <Footer></Footer> // Subform name<br /></Message> <br /><br />But the saveXML script write out like this:<br /><br />b <fields><br /><br /> <Header></Header><br /> <Contents><br /> <FieldA></FieldA><br /> ......<br /> </Contents><br /> <Footer></Footer><br /></fields> <br /><br />So I changed all of the Javascript using relative path and I upload this form again to the FM, but this form does not work...<br />I am not sure that it must be the same name between the rootnode of the xsd file and the name of the contents area. <br /><br />Jared and all, would you let me know whatever you find about this issues.<br /><br />Best regards,<br />Akira

Form is not working of multiple form check boxs, source posted. HELP.

Form is not working of multiple form check boxs, source posted. HELP.
I'm trying to have golive form be able to check one, two or all of the options in Graphics field.
As is it will only post results from the last checked box.
Here's the page
http://www.perfection-press.com/Pages/ContactForm.html
Here's where source in golive has scanning,design,filesupplied.
[code removed to fix forum topic display]

Since the checkboxes all have the same name, the values are over-writing each other when being passed to the PHP script. The best way to fix that is to add a pair of empty square [] brackets after the checkbox names, so make the names "graphics[]" instead of "graphics". That tells PHP that the values are being passed as a list (an array) instead of a single value. As long as your processing script knows what to do from there (and it does), should solve the problem.
By the way, I noticed that two of the checkboxes were named "graphics" and the other was "graphic" (singular). You'll want to fix that too so they're all the same.

My 'contact' form is not working. When I send a test contact it returns to my adobe email account this: "Contact Form" has a new form submission.

My 'contact' form is not working. When I send a test contact it returns to my adobe email account this:
"Contact Form" has a new form submission.

What exactly is not working ? As you have mentioned form submission notification is received in your email account so form process is working I believe but you want the notifications to go to another email account I think.
Have you added the email address in "Email to" field in form options ? If yes and then also you are not receiving the form , then please provide me the site url and post a screenshot or form with option box open.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Forms Personalization not working after R12 upgrade

Hi,
We have recently upgraded to R12. We have forms personalizations on the People, Enter and Maintain form and this is not working now after the R12 upgrade.
I went to one of the form personalizations and Validated and Applied again but it still did not work. I also created a new one but had no success with that either.
Any ideas how to get this working again ? Is there something extra that needs to be done for R12?
Thanks
Regards,
Shalantha

Pl indicate which version of R12 and on what form you had the personalization in the previous version. Have you checked FND_FORM_CUSTOM_% tables to ensure that the personalization survived the upgrade ?
Pl see if these MOS Docs can help

Inserting records from Infopath forms library to a SQL table

Hi,
I have a requirement where i need to populate records from a Infopath forms library to a SQL table in a database. We have written a console app to achive the same. However we are encountering performance issues when inserting records in the database. The
way we retreive information from Infopath forms library is through a CAML query and then insert record by record in database. Is their a better and faster way to acheive this?
Can someone pls help?
thanks,
Anand
Thanks and Regards, Anand R. Deshpande

Hello Anand,
Could you share you console application code? Also tell us when you face performance issue. I mean is there any problem in accessing infopath form or you are facing problem with only console application.

HTML 5 Contact Form "Placeholder" instead of label makes form validation not work

Hi,
I am trying to implement a HTML 5 contact form which uses a "placeholder" within the field instead of a label. But now the form validation does not work.
The site is at http://www.partnerrealestate.ch/avenuedefrance23/index.html and it is not using any workflows from BC as the person receiving it is an external person and the process does not require a workflow.
Would appreciate any input into this.
Kindest Regards,
corina

There is no label on input fields. The form does not work because you have edited the names. BC needs the ID and names to be as it is issue when you create the form so it knows what to use for the validation and what information to pass into the database.
So where you have edited these, you need to restore those.
You have some invalid html on some input's as well one has input="" inside of it when rendered so that is not right.
It is not to do with placeholder use. So fix up your HTML errors, correct the name and ID changes and it will work fine.

InfoPath 2010 does not work in claims authentication mode on SharePoint 2010

Hi everyone,
I created an Infopath 2010 Forms published on a Claims-based authentication site collection. This form has an external datasource plugged on the
_vti_bin/UserProfileService.asmx webservice (within the same site collection). This datasource is queried when the form opens. When I check this form with Infopath designer preview, everything works fine.
But once this forms is published, an error "Error while trying to contact Web Service" occured when opening a new form.
Here ere an extract of the logs:
The following query failed: GetUserProfileByName (User: DOMAIN\username, Form Name: library, IP: , Connection Target: , Request: http://server/_layouts/FormServer.aspx?xsnLocation=http://server/library/forms/template.xsn?DefaultItemOpen=1&Source=http://server/page.aspx, Form ID: urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:infopath:library:-myXSD-2010-01-12T23-08-28 Type: DataAdapterException, Exception Message: The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error.
Server was unable to process request. ---> Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation.
The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error.)
Here is an extract of my IIS log:
2010-11-25 13:45:30 fe80::b9ab:23d9:ff9e:bb23%11 POST /_vti_bin/userprofileservice.asmx - 50000 - fe80::b9ab:23d9:ff9e:bb23%11 InfoPathDA 500 0 0 41
Additionnaly, you have to know :
If we set the web application authentication mode in "Classic mode", everything work fine
As soon as we set "Claim mode authentication", we reproduce the issue and this even if we are using a Windows integrated  account or an external account (SQL Memberships, Claims/AD)
We reproduce this issue in different SharePoint FARM.
It seems that this issue is generic with "Claims mode authentication" and i'm not shure that other forum can help us.
How can I make this WebService works for my form?
Thanks in advance.
Seb Nicot

I am not sure but a Code Solution might work ... I assume InfoPath 2010 is not Claims-Based aware.
I am on SP1 and June 2011 CU but still had no luck
If you only need the current user’s login name, then in the “FormEvents_Loading” event, you can retrieve the current user name with a call to the “Application.User.LoginName” property. Here is an example:
        public void FormEvents_Loading(object sender, LoadingEventArgs e)
            XPathNavigator codeUserNameXPN = this.CreateNavigator().SelectSingleNode(
                "/my:myFields/my:CodeRetrievedUserName", this.NamespaceManager);
            codeUserNameXPN.SetValue(this.Application.User.LoginName);
OR ----------------
        public void FormEvents_Loading(object sender, LoadingEventArgs e)
            //A place to write the results
            XPathNavigator codeUserNameXPN = this.CreateNavigator().SelectSingleNode(
                "/my:myFields/my:CodeRetrievedUserName", this.NamespaceManager);
            //codeUserNameXPN.SetValue(this.Application.User.LoginName);
            try
                //ThresholdAuthentication is the web service reference to the
                //https://test:24575/_vti_bin/authentication.asmx web service
                GetUserName.ThresholdAuthentication.Authentication authenticationWS =
                    new GetUserName.ThresholdAuthentication.Authentication();
                //Call the web service's Login method and pass the username and password of a site
                //administrator so we have rights to read all user profiles
                authenticationWS.Url = "https://test:24575/_vti_bin/authentication.asmx";
                authenticationWS.CookieContainer = new System.Net.CookieContainer();
                GetUserName.ThresholdAuthentication.LoginResult result = authenticationWS.Login(
                    "Admin", "Pa$$w0rd");
                if (result.ErrorCode == GetUserName.ThresholdAuthentication.LoginErrorCode.NoError)
                    //If we authenticated correctly, then set up a call to the user profile service
                    //ThresholdUserProfileService is the web service reference to the
                    //https://test:24575/_vti_bin/userprofileservice.asmx web service
                    GetUserName.ThresholdUserProfileService.UserProfileService userProfileWS =
                        new GetUserName.ThresholdUserProfileService.UserProfileService();
                    //Pass the authentication cookies we got back from the authentication web service
                    userProfileWS.Url = "https://test:24575/_vti_bin/userprofileservice.asmx";
                    userProfileWS.CookieContainer = authenticationWS.CookieContainer;
                    //Try to find the user profile information of the current
                    GetUserName.ThresholdUserProfileService.PropertyData[] resultData =
                        userProfileWS.GetUserProfileByName(this.Application.User.LoginName);
                    //Enumerate through the properties
                    foreach (GetUserName.ThresholdUserProfileService.PropertyData property in resultData)
                        //Pick out the "AccountName" property and display it
                        if (property.Name == "AccountName")
                            codeUserNameXPN.SetValue(property.Values[0].Value.ToString());
                else
                    //If we failed to authenticate properly, display the reason why
                    codeUserNameXPN.SetValue(result.ErrorCode.ToString());
            catch (System.Exception ex)
                //If an exception occurred, report it.
                codeUserNameXPN.SetValue(ex.Message);
Note that in order for this code to work, you will need to make your form template fully-trusted in the “Security” section of the “Form Options” dialog, and then publish your form template to SharePoint as an Administrator-Approved form
template

Infopath forms are not displaying in the list

Hi,
I have created an info path form template after customizing a list form using infopath designer. But it is behaving weird. After submitting the form it is not displaying in the lists allitems view rather it is displaying from designer but directly
under the list not in the items folder.
1) Any idea why this is happening?
2) What is the use of NaN.xml? why it gets created in the list?

Yes, it sounds very simply, but there is a very tiny little broken piece causing lots troubles.
It’s tiny piece, so the solution is going to be very simple. On the other hand, it’s hard to find out because it is very tiny broken piece.
I have feeling that you made a mistake while saving/publishing or filename in submit option (I don’t think List InfoPath form let you set up different submit option).
Sometimes, it is much faster and easier to re-do it again. I recommend you to following the article below. You can skip most but please pay attention on the start (beginning of Part 2 – Customizing)) and on the end (Part 4 - Publishing)
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/gg180738(v=office.14).aspx
Once you follow the best practice written in the article and make it work, then you may realize the difference and mistake.

InfoPath forms suddenly not saving for some

I have three different Infopath forms that have over the past two months developed an inability to sometimes save to their SharePoint Document Library. These are Full Trust forms with lots of custom code on the back end. So far I have not recieved any tickets
for people not being able to Submit a form, but when approvers go in to approve a form (all in custom code), usually they recieve no errors, but the form does not save even though to them it appears to do so. The custom code from the minute they
press the Save button is in try/catch, so I would get an error if one was present.
For a few of the people they start getting this message::TrxResult:GeTrxResultBusinessLogicFailedMessge- One or more messages failed execution. Please check message TRxResult value for more details." But after a while they stop getting it but the forms
still do not save.
The thing is one of these forms has been in production for almost four yeears and we have never seen this error message, or the inability to actually save the form happen before. It only happens to certain people and it happens even if they try a diferent
PC. It seems to be happening at only a couple locations (we have over 100 locations on our network), so it could be location specific, as in, someone installed something locally that is silently interferring with Infopath, but I have never heard of anything
doing that.
There is absolutely nothing strange going on in the save routine:
Public
Sub FormEvents_Save(ByVal
sender As
Object,
ByVal e
As SaveEventArgs)'
' See if you are allowed to save the form
If bAllowSave =
True
Then
e.PerformSaveOperation()
End
If
e.CancelableArgs.Cancel =
False
-Barry
End
Sub
I
also do not see anything in our logs and most of the time the users see no indication that the form did not save. Does Does any any of this ring a bell to anyone? Thanks.

here is one of the forms that is not working in Reader (except on my wife's PC and another Mac) it is the current PDF form i am having trouble with. If we can resolve the issue then it will help me resolve my other forms too. I have made them all using the same process. (Maybe therein lies a problem)
Form Creation Process:
Create initial page layout in Pages (mac app for those that are not familiar)
Export as PDF
Open PDF in Acrobat Pro 9 (started making forms in v8 now i am working in v9 - both have produced this problem)
Run Form wizard, adjust fields, save final version of form
Extend Features in Adobe Reader (via Advanced menu) - Follow steps to save a new Reader Enabled version
Email new RE version to co-workers
All can fill out the form, only a couple can actually save the partially completed / fully completed form for reference, filing, or submission.
Am I missing something? Thanks for all the help so far!

Attachments in Form Library Not Available?

Are attachments in the Advanced Settings not available in a Form Library like it is in other Library's? I know I can add the attachment link on an InfoPath form, but I would like it to be on the ribbon as well and as a column for my view.
I am on SharePoint 2013 On Premise.

InfoPath Form Library cannot edit in Datasheet view, cells delete themself

Hello,
I wanted to be able to edit a cell in datashee view for my form library. I have made sure within the publishing wizard that the cells can be edited in datasheet view. This seemed to work fine last week, but now when I input text into the cells, pause for
3 seconds, the cells then delete themselves???
I have no idea why, the cells are not read only and I have triple checked they can be edited in datasheet view. they are simple text fields!!
Has anyone ever seen this behavior before??

Hi Palumbob,
I tested the same scenario per your post in my environment, however the datasheet view worked fine when I edited the cells.
For troubleshooting this issue, I recommend to test the things below:
Check if there are any workflows or event receivers to set the column value to be null in the library.
Type value in the simple text field and then click other cells to see how the value works.
Create a new datasheet for the library to see if the issue still occurs.
Create a new column in the library and test.
Create a new library and test.
Thanks,
Victoria
