Can't publish anything to SP 2013 w/ InfoPath 2013

I am having a really hard time using publishing any InfoPath forms to SharePoint.

Here are the steps I've taken:

  • Created two document libraries.  One called "Applications" (to store the completed forms) and one called "InfoPath Forms" (to store the form).
  • Create a simple form from the "SharePoint Form Library" template. 
  • Create three fields: name, date, and question1.  
  • Create a submit button and create a data connection to my "Applications" doc lib
  • Go to publish to SharePoint Server and enter URL (I've tried publishing site and team site)
  • Select to publish as new Content Type
  • Put in the URL to my "InfoPath Forms" doc lib
  • Add the fields "name" and "date" as new columns
  • Click "Publish" and I get an error:

InfoPath has encountered an error.  The operation failed.

Find this in the Event Viewer:

Microsoft InfoPath
InfoPath has encountered an error. The operation failed.
P1: 1200176
P2: 15.0.4420.1017
P3: aaw74P4: 

Find this on the SP Server ULS Logs:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?><SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAPSDK1="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:SOAPSDK2="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:SOAPSDK3="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"><SOAP-ENV:Body><UpdateColumns xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/"><newFields><Fields><Method ID="3"><Field  DisplayName="PTOApplicantName" ReadOnly="TRUE" Node="/my:myFields/my:ApplicantName" Type="Text" Group="Microsoft Office InfoPath" XName="{AB2443F6-2816-46D5-BA99-5813D1EAAFEB}"/></Method><Method ID="4"><Field  DisplayName="PTODateApplied" ReadOnly="TRUE" Node="/my:myFields/my:DateApplied" Type="DateTime" Format="DateOnly"  Group="Microsoft Office InfoPath" XName="{AB86C619-D8DC-4842-B629-BD4EFA063567}"/></Method></Fields></newFields><updateFields></updateFields><deleteFields></deleteFields></UpdateColumns></SOAP-ENV:Body></SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

No idea what I'm doing wrong.  I've been able to successfully create a form for adding records to a SharePoint list, but I can't get the form library to work no matter what I do.

If I've left out any critical information please let me know!  Thanks in advance for your help!!!

Workflow 2013 - how to set the value of a managed metadata column

August 22, 2013, 6:47 am

From within a SharePoint 2013 workflow, I want to copy the value of a managed metadata column to another managed metadata column (all in the same content type).

I tried using the "Update item in Current Item" action. It lets me set it, but when I click ok to save it, it blanks whatever I entered in the "Current Item" dialog box. It looks like this is an unfinished feature and Microsoft did a quick pass at making it unavailable... I could work on developing a custom action, but I am in Office 365, so this is ruled out.

Any idea?

And then, is there any trick to set the value of a metadata column to something known (such as an existing term in the term store)?

thanks,

Pierre

Hi all,

I would like to update the default value of a library using the POST method of a Web Service call. The value I would like to put in place would be a Workflow Variable.

Is it possible to pass a variable into the HTTP Web Service POST within SharePoint Designer 2013?

Thanks,

Hi,

I have Sharepoint site that is upgraded from 2010. In that site we have a custom list which is customized by InfoPath and it is using user profile service to get the current user information. After the upgrade I change the data connection file to use secure store service to get the information (because of changing the application to claims base). Everything works fine if I usehttp://servername:port as my site address, I can pull current user. But when I change the IIS binding and configure Alternate Access mappings to usewww.siteaddress.com I start to get an 5566 error. I also tried a fresh new SP2013 site that did the same thing to both Works fine withhttp://servername:port and both gives error withwww.siteaddress.com Can anyone please help me about it, thanks a lot.

Treeview to show only items that users have permission to access

Hi! I need your help

I want to hide items from a treeview that users don't have access. I did not find a configuration in Settings in SP or Designer. I found code to modify something, like these examples (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/aac2b433-cd57-4ccb-9935-9e3ee04b2fdb/urgent-how-do-i-get-treeview-to-show-only-document-libraries-users-have-permission-to-access?forum=sharepointgeneralprevious) but I did not undestand very well, because... does SPSecurityTrimmedControl control the visibility of treeview items?

Please help me with tips =)

Thanks!

Change drop down threshold of SP.UI.CommandBar - Discussion Board Flat View customization - CSR

November 7, 2013, 9:57 pm

Hi,

We have a requirement to customize the out of the box SP Discussion board's flat view (in SharePoint 2013). Attached below is a screenshot of what needs to be achieved.

We know that the views are rendered using the client side rendering scripts, specifically the sp.ui.discussions.js. Also, the drop down is rendered by an object called SP.UI.CommandBar. This object apparently has a Threshold property which is set to two, which is why it renders the ratings and the reply action controls and bundles all others into a drop down menu. We want to increase this threshold so that the commandbar object renders all the controls in a single line. We intend to customize the sp.ui.discussions.js and provide that in the JSLink property of the discussion board's webpart.

Could anyone please help us in locating the implementation of this SP.UI.CommandBar object, or suggest a workaround that will enable us to render all action items in a single line?

Thanks,
Vinod

How to migrate the backup

Hi All,

Let say i have drafted a workflow and attached with a list in a site collection. Once testing is completed, I am wondering how can i move this workflow to production farm? With SP2010 we used to take the backup and restore the same in production farm. Since in new model workflow manager holds the workflow i suppose migration would be tough.

How robust workflow manager is?

November 16, 2013, 10:07 pm
$

Hi All,

Let assume that there is a SPD workflow that invokes a web service.  Web Service is down for 5 hours, let assume. During this 5 hours there are 100 workflow instances that are created by SharePoint. All the instances will stuck on web service invoke step since service is down.  As i understand the workflow manager functioning, workflow will retry to invoke the web service couple of times.

I am wondering:-

  • How many times workflow will retry to invoke the service?
  • If maximum retry is over, will workflow instance be suspended or killed?
  • If workflow instance is suspended, will manual intervention required to resume the workflow.
  • If workflow instance required manual intervention, can we resume all 100 instance in one go?
  • While suspending the workflow instance, will workflow manager intimate the admin regarding it using some media e.g email.

Do anyone has any thought around it?

Hi All,

Earlier SPD workflow didn't provide any robust logging/tracking, only option that was available, was history list. I am wondering does Workflow Manager provides robust logging & tracking?

SPD workflow vs. Visual Studio workflow.

As I understand both SharePoint designer workflow and visual studio workflow are declarative workflow and both run in workflow manager. So as I understand both are same.

If my understand is correct, now both workflows should have same set of activities/actions that are inherited from WWF 4.0, however in actual it is not.

Have anyone thought around it?

Hello;

I created a workflow on Sharepoint Designer 2013 which is Sharepoint 2013 workflow - Project Server. I want to use "set project field" action to set custom fields on my project detail pages. Nevertheless, when I use the action, it actualy sets custom fields to value I specified but, not saves them. I can only see values in edit mode of project detail pages on projects. By the way, I check-in the project before use that action. Do you have any ideas?

Hi,

I want to add breadcrumb in my custom master page. I have checked many possibilities/approaches.The scenario is :I'm in a site collection's sub-site having page - Home.aspx.There it shows the web title.In a list , it shows Web_Title > List_name , which is again all right. But when I navigate to any _layouts page , like people & group , it;s showing "HOME" :( which is not required. I am using the following code in .html file :-

<!--Breadcrumb Start -->                    
             
                    <div style="background:#f7c210; font-size:14px;color:black;height:25px; padding-left:20px; padding-top:5px;">
                   <!--SPM:<SharePoint:AjaxDelta id="DeltaPlaceHolderPageTitleInTitleArea" runat="server">-->
<!--MS:<SharePoint:SPTitleBreadcrumb runat="server" 
WelcomePageUsesWebTitle="true" DefaultParentLevelsDisplayed="3" 
ParentLevelsDisplayedInFolder="3" RenderCurrentNodeAsLink="true" 
SiteMapProvider="SPContentMapProvider" 
CentralAdminSiteMapProvider="SPXmlAdminContentMapProvider">-->
                 <!--ME:</SharePoint:SPTitleBreadcrumb>-->

                   <!--SPM:</SharePoint:AjaxDelta>-->
             </div>                                        
                    <!-- Breadcrumb Ends -->

 I have also tried using "asp:SiteMappath" , but no success. I have also used different combinations of SiteMapProvider like SPXmlContentMapProvider,CurrentNavSiteMapProviderNoEncode,SPContentMapProvider etc but no success.

infopath 2013 forms with Sharepoint 2013

November 6, 2013, 7:50 am

morning,

I am in the process of implementing Sharepoint 2013.

On our old SharePoint 2003 server / site we have a very basic document library that contains a few infopath "xsn" files that were created in Infopath 2010. 

A very basic simulation of how we would use these forms are as follows, users navigate to the form library, they see the form they want to use, double click, form opens, fill out form, click submit and contents of form are email to whomever.

looking to do something simular in Sharepoint 2013, however, when I upload these xsn forms in sharpoint 2013 document library and attempt to double click I receive an error stating...

"This action couldn't be performed because Office doesn't recognize the command it was given" 

thoughts?

I then opened the form in infopath designer and published the form, however, I am not looking to publish the data in a list for all to see, I am just looking for a way to have end users click on the form name (which publishing does not provide) and filling out the information. 

Am I missing a step? Is it because office is not installed on my new sharepoint server? Has this all changed from sharepoint 2003 to 2013 because of workflows? 

any advice is greatly appreciated!
