Hi Alok,

I understand you are getting the "File Not Found" error when trying to open "Configure InfoPath Forms Services" in Central Admin in SharePoint 2013.

There are a few possible causes for this error:

The InfoPath Forms Services feature may not be installed or enabled.

The InfoPath Forms Services binaries may be missing or corrupted.

The InfoPath Forms Services configuration files may be missing or corrupted.

To troubleshoot this issue, please try the following steps:

Verify that the InfoPath Forms Services feature is installed and enabled.

To do this, open Central Admin and go to Application Management > Features.

If the InfoPath Forms Services feature is not listed, click Add Features and select the InfoPath Forms Services feature.

Verify that the InfoPath Forms Services binaries are present.

The InfoPath Forms Services binaries are located in the following directory:

%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office Servers\14.0\Data\InfoPath\Server\Bin

If the InfoPath Forms Services binaries are missing, you can download them from the Microsoft Download Center.

Verify that the InfoPath Forms Services configuration files are present and correct.

The InfoPath Forms Services configuration files are located in the following directory:

%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office Servers\14.0\Data\InfoPath\Server\Config

If the InfoPath Forms Services configuration files are missing or corrupted, you can restore them from a backup.

If you have tried all of these steps and you are still getting the "File Not Found" error, please contact Microsoft support for further assistance.

Additional Information:

The InfoPath Forms Services feature is not available in SharePoint 2013 Standard edition.

If you are using a localized version of SharePoint 2013, make sure that the InfoPath Forms Services binaries and configuration files are in the correct language.

I hope this helps!

Sincerely,

Bruno Gomes.

Hi @alok paul,

Thank you for posting in this community.

Since we can't reproduce your situation, we need to narrow down the problem and try some things. So, please kindly provide more information below to let us work further.

1.Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to access Central Admin. You can run Central Admin as an administrator to have elevated privileges.

2.The ipfsConfig.aspx is located in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\ADMIN. Could you please check if it is there? If not, you may need to re-install the SharePoint server. If so, please try to configurate the SharePoint server using SharePoint Configuration Wizard again.

3.If the problem persists, try restarting SharePoint Administrator Center in IIS.
