Object reference not set to an instance of an object while uploading InfoPath Form

  • 项目

 

I have a full trusted InfoPath form that was OK in MOSS 2007 and it was also OK to import from the exported cab files with SharePoint 2010 RTM. But it throws the following error after SP2010 SP1  when I tried to upload the same InfoPath form:

System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

In the troubleshooting process, I copied this InfoPath to a fresh SharePoint farm and tried to upload it and it verified OK but give me a list of referenced assemblies that were missing. I added the missing assembly to GAC and the above error showed up again. So there is must be something special about the assembly – looked at the source code and found out that the public class used by InfoPath form code does not have namespace. Added the namespace and everything works fine now.
