SYMPTOMS
When you try to install a new electronic form (e-form) created in the
Electronic Forms Designer via an Exchange client by using the Tools /
Options / Exchange Server / Manage Forms menu selections, the following
error message may appear:
The form could not be installed, the required action was not successful
due to unspecified error!
CAUSE
You are trying to install the forms to a folder located on a non-Intel
platform system.
WORKAROUND
Installing e-forms to a non-Intel-based platform will give the error
message only when you are installing to the organization forms or public
folder.
If you install e-forms to a PST file or personal forms library, the
installation is successful. This occurs because Visual Basic for e-forms
and Visual Basic 4.0 were designed and compiled to run on Intel platforms
only. Non-Intel platforms include Alpha, MIPS, RISC, and so on. To be able
to install e-forms into the organization forms or public folder, install
them on an Intel-based server in the organization and allow Exchange to
replicate to the non-Intel platform.
