I am using WSS 3.0 and I have Infopath 2007. I created a form using Infopath 2007 and I set the form up to be web browser enabled but I am getting the following error message when I publish the form to a sharepoint forms library:

"This form template is browser-compatible, but it cannot be browser-enabled
on the selected site."

"This may be caused by.."

"- The Server is not running InfoPath Forms Services"
- The necessary features are not available on the site collection.
- The policy setting on the server does not allow users to browser-enable
form templates. "

I went to the Central Administration and looked under Application Management settings to see if I saw the settings for InfoPath Forms Services, but it was not listed. So my question is, does Infopath Forms Services come with WSS 3.0. If it does, how do I install it. If it does not, is it available as a download somewhere. Or better yet, why am I getting the above mentioned error and how can I correct the problem.
Thanks in advance!
 
I have the same issue as mentioned with InfoPath and WSS 3.0.
 
Infopath Forms Services is contained in Microsoft Office SharePoint Services 2007 (MOSS 2007), not WSS. WSS is a free download onto Windows Server 2003 (you probably know this) but MOSS 2007 must be purchased. I do not beleive you need to get the Enterprise version of MOSS 2007, however you might want to check with a vendor on that point.

Develop either in .net as web parts which can then be installed into SharePoint or use Microsoft Office SharePoint Designer
