After publishing a lot of InfoPath forms, suddenly InfoPath 2007 started to present me with an error:
The following URL is not valid: www.url.com
The error made it completely impossible to publish any document to my SharePoint site. After searching some time on Google I found a few solutions which didn’t work for me:
But the post from Firedancer worked all right.
The solution is to stop the System Event Notification service. It seems to me that it is more a work around as a solution, so after publishing enable the service again.

You’ll only have to stop the System Event Notification service for one time. After you published the form resume the service. All new publications will go allright again. I guess that something that went wrong in the SharePoint database gets fixed after the forced publication.

Does not work for me, nor do some of the other items in FireDancer’s post. The only thing I have not been able to try (as a lowly site admin) is AAM’s and whether there is a ‘/’ site.

Make sure you have a site at root level. no need to stop system event notification. I have just created site at root level. when we create new site collection at that time do not forget to create root level site, if u create root level site it avoid the error “the following url is not valid” wich will come afterwards.
