My form has two submits: first submit does not allow overwrite; update
allows overwrite.

The following sequence works:
1. In SharePoint for library, select "Fill out this form"
2. Enter form data, then click "first submit" button.
3. Update form data, then click "update" button.
4. Close form.

When I open the updated form for edit, the update submit generates a
"Some rules were not applied" message. The details are:
InfoPath cannot submit the form.
An error occurred while the form was being submitted.

I'm not familiar with "update" but can tell you that I am using
multiple updates of the forms I've published. I use a button and save
the form using code but it does basically the same thing. If both
buttons (If I understand your problem correctly) are submitting how is
that possible with one data connection? Make sure your rules or code
are not using the submit connection for the "Update" button. Another
thing, if a rule is processed when clicking the "Update" button it is
possible that a value could be set causing it to only save once.
Also, check the sharepoint library properties to insure they are set
correctly for what you're trying to do. Just guessing here... If you
have more information please reply.
