    InfoPath 2010 dropping "Site" on Data connections

    I am creating data connections to SharePoint libraries and to GetUserProfile.  I save the form and exit SharePoint designer.  when I reopen the form the data connections have lost part of the URL to the sites they were connected to.  Browser forms.

    below is the original data connection.  fine until i closed InfoPath Designer

     Original Data Connection

     Below is what the data connection looks like after reopening the file in InfoPath Designer

    Lost Site on Data Connection

     

    Original GetUserProfileByName data connection

     Original UserProfile Connection

     GetUserProfileByName connection after reopening up infopath designer.

    GetUserProfile lost data connection

    Any ideas on this would be greatly appreciated.

    Your screenshots aren't showing - could you attach them under the Options tab?

    All you are doing is saving the form, then re-opening the same saved template, correct? I've not run into this before....

    Hilary,

    I have reposted the screen shots.  Yes all I am doing is saving the template then re-opening the saved template.  I am betting it is a setting on the server side of InfoPath but I cannot get to that part of the company setup.

    So the site is ArkutunDagi-eMOCs? And you aren't publishing the form, or anything, just adding the data connection, closing, and re-opening. Can you try with a new blank form (if you haven't already) and see if it reoccurs?

    It happens after being published.  Tried it with a blank form on a subsite just like before and the data connection was fine until published.  then it truncated off the subsite.

    Are you publishing to the same site?

    Saving the template to  ....sites/xxxx3011/WorkOrders/InfoPath Forms

    Publishing to  ....sites/xxxx3011/WorkOrders/Test1

     xxxx3011 is the TeamSite

    WorkOrders is a subsite
