Hi,

I've installed WSS + SP2 on my server, installed K2.Net and K2 HotFix for SharePoint SP2.
Now, when I'm trying to create Infopath process and run the wizard I have got a constant error while connecting to K2 Infopath Web Service. It says incorrect autentication.
If I ignore the error and complete the wizard and fill out my Infopath form from a WSS library I can't submit it - error 'Access is denied' appears.

I checked IIS settings, everywhere I use Windows autentication. Anonymous access is disabled. I guess it's the problem with installed SP2.

Any thoughts how I can solve it? Thank you!

If Sharepoint and K2 are on seperate boxes, you'll need to enable Kerberos.

Also make sure that authenticated users has rights to the temporary asp.net files folder on the K2 server as well as the windows temp folder.

Also make sure that the anonymous account has start rights on your process

Thanks for your answer, but I have SPS and K2 installed on the same server in different IIS sites though. And I can't give any rights to the process because I can't create the process itself - when I choose the Infopath template for a project a wizard starts and it fails with autentication error when I try to set the value for Infopath web services field.

You'll probably have to assign permissions to the users in WSS.

Not sure though,

can you check if you can reach the InfoPath web service from a browser? the default address is http://[servername]/k2v3/infopathservice/infopathservice.asmx

Try both from the server itself and from another machine on the network -when trying from the server, invoke the WhoAmI operation and see if the correct username is being returned.
