InfoPath Forms Services is not turned on

Posted by mundeep on February 17, 2009

While trying to deploy an InfoPath Form to sharepoint via stsadm commands i received the error:

InfoPath Forms Services is not turned on.

Initially thinking that the Enterprise features where not enabled in the Site Collection i was deploying to i tried activating the “Office SharePoint Server Enterprise Site Collection features”, however that did not make a difference.

Turns out the problem was that the account i was trying to deploy under (my own) did not have sufficient permissions (to what i am not sure – but i am guessing the configuration database), running the deployment under an account with more priveleges solved the problem.

Summary: If you get the above error make sure to try your deployment/stsadm commands under an account with higher priveleges (most likely access to the config database).
