We have a MOSS 2007 site running that has InfoPath forms (created in InfoPath 2007 and/or InfoPath 2010) with workflows created in SharePoint Designer 2010. We’re are preparing for an upgrade to SharePoint 2013. In preparation for that, we’ve been installing Office 2013 on users’s desktops.
We’ve begun to see intermittent issues with people not being able to submit forms from InfoPath 2013. Not all users experience the issues.
Those who do experience it get the same messages:
InfoPath cannot submit the form.
Some rules were not applied. InfoPath cannot submit the form. An error occurred while the form was being submitted. The form cannot be submitted to the following location: https://URL (Full URL is listed correctly) The site may be offline, read-only, or otherwise unavailable. The parameter is incorrect.
For those who have this error appear, they are running Windows 7, IE 8 or 9, and have the SharePoint URL set as the local intranet site in their browser.
Of the forms, we have 5 of the 7 are browser-enabled forms and submit without issue if the user accesses SharePoint from Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome instead of Internet Explorer. While we’ll be redesigning all of the forms as part of the upgrade process, we need for people to be able to continue processing purchase reqs, time sheets etc, over the next 3-4 months.
Has anyone seen this issue or have any suggestions of how I track down the problem and provide a temporary solution?
Hey Robin, good that compatibility setting did work. For the login prompts, can you please try to add the site to trusted site and give it a try? Having said that, I am not sure whats causing it but the compatibility of IE9 with the application. So if you click on Tools > F12 Developer tools menu, you will be able to change the Browser mode and Document Mode to IE7, IE8 and IE9. Feel free to play with that and figure how it is reacting to different modes, so that you will be able to understand the issue better . Hope this helps
Cheers!
