For anyone else having the same issue, remove all un-needed data connections from the form. That cleared the issue for me.

forms services error - Unexpected end of file has occurred. The following elements are not closed: dfs:dataFields, dfs:myFields

Hi,

I have a form that works fine when I preview it in the infopath client. I fill it in and it submits to my sharepoint site, and the VSTA code works too.

Now, the same form is deployed as an administrator-approved template. When I try and create a new item in the library, *any* postback to the server in the form gives the following error:

=========================================

==============================================

If I try and open an existing form, I get the grey 'The form has been closed' message.

As I said, this all works fine when it is previewed in infopath!

Any ideas what is going on? I am rapidly coming to the conclusion that either infopath, forms services, or both are very buggy!!!!!!
