When I am working on InfoPath forms that is downloaded from Google. Uploaded in My test site and tried to open the Form. It welcomes with error” The form cannot be submitted because it contains validation error. Errors are marked with either a red asterisk (required filed) or a red, dashed border (invalid values)”
Solution
1. Ensure that the InfoPath feature enabled in list
Open the list in InfoPath via list tab > customize form
It will open up newform.aspx in InfoPath
Once it is open check mandatory fields available in that form.
Make sure all mandatory fields are available and deployed in newform.aspx
If you don’t want them to be displayed in newform.aspx just remove mandatory option
Republish the form and check behavior
If the above does not resolves the issue then it was a hidden field with an invalid value which caused the problem
