Moving forms and database

[knechod]

I am running InfoPath 2003 SP3 and Access 2003 SP3 as the data
connection. I built this form and database on one computer, but I
need to run it on a different computer. So I emailed the form and
database to myself, and placed it on the second computer.

I am able to design it, but when I go to publish it, it says "InfoPath
cannot create a new, blank form. InfoPath cannot find or cannot
access the following file: C:\Documents and Settings\myuser\Local
Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\InfoPath\FormCache1\3a0CA6AE.
440\a16229ceefa61e$817fd693daff5c0\template.xml"

When I run it directly, it says "The form definition (.xsf) file
cannot be opened because of an error. InfoPath cannot open the
following file: manifest.xsf. The system cannot find the file
specified."

Any idea as to how to proceed?

Thanks,

Kevin

Hello

This sees to be a cache problem. Clear the cache from Infopath
Enter the following command in the Command Prompt window. This command
clears the InfoPath cache

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11>INFOPATH.EXE /cache clearall

The problem persists after running the cache clear command.

Can you let me know which forms did you email yourself? is it XSN or Xml file
.. Also refresh the dataconnection to the database when you open the form in
design mode and publish it locally

One more piece to the puzzle. My instance of Office is managed by
Altiris, and that appears to royally confuse Infopath. My desktop
support guy said that I could have a local install, but I don't think
he REALLY wants to do that for my entire department.

Oh, well! We will keep on.

Thanks for all your help.
