This form template is not currently browser-enabled. It must either be republished as a browser-enabled form, or opened using Microsoft Office InfoPath 2007

Hi,

When I try to open a Infopath related file from Sharepoint, I am receiving the below error. 

This form template is not currently browser-enabled. It must either be republished as a browser-enabled form, or opened using Microsoft Office InfoPath 2007.

Office Professional Plus 2010 and Infopath 2010 are installed in my Windows 7 Enterprise edition. Have executed ""C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\InfoPath.exe" /cache ClearAll" the command. But still getting the same error. It works in different machine. Repaired Office 2010 and Infopath. 

Please let me know if any solution available. 

Regards,

Hi,

You can try Amit Bajaj's method in another thread which has fixed the same problem for several users:

Check if the default Form Templates option in appearing under View all site contents page. If it is not enabled by default, then you can follow this following steps.

 If "Office SharePoint Server Enterprise Site Features" is enabled but we don't see the default "Form Templates" on the "View all site contents" page, then you should use the following steps.

  • Make sure they have backup of everything.
  • Opened the site http://<your site url> in SharePoint Designer.
  • Select the root URL and click FILE >> NEW >> SharePoint Content
  • Choose Document Library >> Form Library
  • Under options type the name as FormServerTemplates and it will create the content.
  • Now right click on FormServerTemplate and open Properties
  • On settings Tab change the name to Form Templates and uncheck the option Use a template for new documents
  • Click OK
  • Now you should see Form Templates on the view all site content page.
  • You should be able to publish the InfoPath form with "Enable this form to be filled out by using a browser."

Since this issue is more related to SharePoint, if above steps doesn't resolve the problem, I'd recommend you post your question in the following forum for further assistance:

HI All,

Thanks for the reply. Same user is able to open the Infopath. There is some problem in the present machine. 

Is there any hotfix to solve the issue. I checked that, this error occurs without infopath also,
