MS Office Forum / General MS InfoPath Questions / May 2006Submit Error
I have created a form for a school that I was able to publish to the school's web server. Now I would like people within the school district to be able to access the published form and then submit it back to the same web server. I have "enabled submit commands and buttons" I chose "submit to web server" and typed in the URL of where the folder is on the server that I want the submitted forms to be saved it. The error message I get is "InfoPath cannot submit the form. Method Not Allowed The download of the specified resource has failed." Anyone have any ideas how to fix this? Thank you, D D Submission can be instanted in one of three ways. Via a WEB SERVICE, not a folder on a web server, as an email message OR via a databse OR Via HTTP or custom submits, what you are wanting to effect is save I am guessing, go into tools, form options , and enable the save effect so the save icon is not greyed out when filling it in.

I'm starting to see that maybe this is not possible and maybe that is not what it means to submit by HTTP?

The form has to pass through three people so I think we are going to go with the email option and then have the last person save it to a shared drive.

So, create all fields except the attachment fields in your dbase, then click on my fields and add an additional group that does not link to the database. Then add the fields for the attachments in there and they will not submit to the database, drop me a mail and i will show you what i mean.
