I have some InfoPath forms that I create it in the SP 2010 environment and these forms work very well in the SP 2010.

I tried to upload it to SP 2016 farm. they didn't work.

I got this error:

Error loading form code assembly: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Office.InfoPath, Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified..

What do you think guys? Should I compile these form in the SP 2016 environment?

I republish my form using InfoPath 2013 and SP 2016. It was in my Dev environment.

However, when I try to upload it in the SP 2016 UAT it doesn't work

I cannot install InfoPath in the UAT/PROD environment.

Is there any way to register the dll in the GAC? or it is not the problem?

have you tried by using InfoPath Designer 2013? It should solve your problem. Just open the infopath form in Infooath Designer 2013 and publish it into ur site (sp2016).

  • Do we need to have Infopath Designer on SP farm server? We can not install Infopath on SP Server. On my dev machine I have Infopath Designer 2013 and I am publishing it to Sp2016 successfully. But When I upload the form template in central admin its failing and giving error " Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Office.InfoPath, Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c' "

You should update the form to use InfoPath 2013 and re-publish it to SharePoint 2016.

Solution has been posted already so I wont cover it again. However I highly recommend migrating to .net forms or consider a 3rd party solution such as Nintex or K2. Infopath is facing its end of life in SharePoint. Personally it's more trouble than its worth.
