Also from the K2 documentation, check out the step by step instructions.  (be aware you will also need to have some type of digitally signed form in many cases for this to work 100%)

InfoPath integration using Code Behind

When integrating K2 blackpearl with InfoPath FormServices and the InfoPath form contains Code Behind the following steps will need to be performed:

1. Create your Form, add your C# or VB code, set it to Full Trust and save the template on the local machine

3. Open the InfoPath Process Integration Wizard

4. Select Add

5. Browse to your Template saved in step 1

6. On the Deployment Location page select Local or Network location

7. Complete the Add InfoPath Template and InfoPath Integration wizards

8. Deploy your process when done with your design

9. After successful deployment browse to the Deployment Location selected in step 6

10. Right Click the file and select Design

11. Select Publish from the File menu

12. Enter your Site URL and click Next

13. Select Enable this form to be filled in Using a browser and Continue to the next page

14. Enter the Template filename which will have to be uploaded by an administrator using the Central Admin and complete the rest of the wizard

15. Close InfoPath

16. Open the MOSS Central Admin site

17. Navigate to Central Admin > Application Manager > Manage Form Templates > Upload Form Template

18. Browse to the File saved in step 14 and select Upload

19. When this completed navigate to Central Admin > Application Manager > Manage Form Templates

20. Find the template uploaded in the previous step, open the file’s drop down menu and select Activate Template on Site Collection

21. Select the site on which you would like to use the template and click on OK

22. Browse to the site on which you activated the Template and navigate to the library on which you wish to add the template as a content type

23. Ensure that the Library is set to display as a Web Page and apply the changes

24. Still on the Library settings page find the Content Types Section and select Add from existing site content types

Hello all,

Well its been some time since I have posted anything up here but this video is a long one, but also very important.  IT IS KERBEROS.  Since this one is so long and covers so much I added an index/TOC to it, Simply open the HTML file associated with this project in the ZIP.  If you do not want to use this you can just watch the straight WMV.

One item that I did not explain very well was the Kerberos Time Sensitivity.  By default if there is greater than 5Min difference between 2 systems involved in a authentication Kerberos will fail.  Check out the following article for more info.

We are on a roll this week and I have 2 more How to K2 videos ready for you.  A huge thanks to our own "bobopedia" Bob Maggio for all his help on these videos.

Debugging a Service Broker

This will show how the Visual Studio Debugger can be utilized to debug a custom K2 Service broker.

In this scenario the configuration method is debugged, so K2 workspace is used to trigger the debugging event, as opposed to some sort of actual Create or Update method.

Note: in some environments the K2 server may need to be enabled for remote debugger. Refer to the below link for more details:

Debugging a K2 Process

This will show how the Visual Studio Debugger can be attached to the K2 server and used to step through the code of an executing process.

Note: in some environments the K2 server may need to be enabled for remote debugger. Refer to the below link for more details:

Hello again everyone..

 

I know last time I said the next video would be on Actions and Outcomes, but I was trying to get some 2003 templates to work in blackpearl this week and thought it would be a great video to show. I am sure someone out there could use the help.

So here it is video 10 on using 2003 templates in blackpearl. This one is short and sweet….

And as always they come in a variety of flavors
