Hi, I would recommend checking the log file to see exactly what the problem is first: Go to "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\12\LOGS" (or wherever your SharePoint logs are) Repeat the operation that causes a failure in IPFS and check the latest entry in the log (it should have "Forms ...
