Hi,

I have differen forms working with a Web Service. These forms have several
data connections and are working correctly. However if I try to modify the
Data Connection to which I submit the Data, I always have the following
error message:
Infopath has encountered an error. Operation failed. Catstrophic Failure.

Any Clues?
Thanks
Dominique

Dominique,

What did you do when you attempted to change your data connection?

Hi Andrew,

I only selected the DataConection I want to modify, than selected the Web
Service, and finally selected the web method, and I get the message while
clicking next at this stage.
In the meantime, I tried to make a new form from scratch and ad the
dataconnection, and I get the same error. Existing forms still work OK.

There are some rare issues with web services that cause InfoPath to crash
while designing a form. Would it be possible to post your WSDL to the
newsgroup? I can find someone to confirm my hunch then.

Alternatively, if you are getting an "Error reporting" dialog, we can get
some info that way as well.

Hi Brian,

I don't think it would help that much to have the WSDL. This Web Service is
working for months as well as those forms. The problem only arise now that I
have to modify a form or create a new one. Also I do not have any Error
Reporting Dialog, Jsut a message box with the message I mentionned.
Thanks

If it is happening for new forms when you try to create a data connection
from that web service, then the particular data structure of that WSDL is
the mostly likely source of the problem.

OK, May I send it to your address?

Yes, that'd be great. You'll have to remove part of the address to make it
go through.

Hi Dde,

I have had the same problem with NewFromSolutionWithData.

The problem turned out to be the processing instructions were needed in this
order:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><?mso-application
progid="InfoPath.Document"?>

Hope it helps

The most frequent cause of this error is that in the form template files,
sampledata.xml and/or template.xml is no longer valid according to the
schema.
Did you do any manual change to the data source that could have led you into
this situation (e.g. change the WS without performing a change data source
in the form template)?
To fix it, the quickest way is to extract the form files to a folder from
the designer and to realign the schema and sampledata.xml / template.xml.
After this, you can open manifest.xsf in the designer again and republish
your form.

Hope this helps
