InfoPath Forms Library is missing: SharePoint 2007

Issue: The following computer running windows SharePoint Services does not contain the required InfoPath form template:
http://Amar-Infopathtest-xxxx/
A generic form template will be used instead
Or
InfoPath failed to publish because the default content type in the document library is not based on the Form content type.

Troubleshooting:
Add a Form content type, and switch it over as the default content type. Only to discover SharePoint now publishes two different sets of columns in this list – one set for Forms, another set for Documents.
We noticed that Form Lib is missing on the site collection.
Resolution:
1.      Activating the Office SharePoint Server Enterprise Site Collection features and Office SharePoint Server Enterprise Site features, helps in resolving the issue.
  • Go to -> Site Actions -> Site Settings -> Site Collection Features –> Office SharePoint Server Enterprise Site Collection features -> Activate
  • Go to -> Site Actions -> Site Settings -> Site Features –> Office SharePoint Server Enterprise Site features -> Activate.
2.      If activating both of these features does not create the Form Library, you can try to execute the following ‘STSADM’ commands.  
·        STSADM.EXE -o deactivatefeature -filename IPFSSiteFeatures\feature.xml -force –url http://Amar-Infopathtest-xxxx
·        STSADM.EXE -o deactivatefeature -filename IPFSWebFeatures\feature.xml -force -url http://Amar-Infopathtest-xxxx
·        STSADM.EXE -o activatefeature -filename IPFSSiteFeatures\feature.xml -url http://Amar-Infopathtest-xxxx -force
·        STSADM.EXE -o activatefeature -filename IPFSWebFeatures\feature.xml -url http://Amar-Infopathtest-xxxx –force.
3.      If none of the above works, then try the last option to activate the ‘Team Collaboration List Features.’
·        Go to -> Site Actions -> Site Settings -> Site Features Site Features –> Team Collaboration Lists
If you have any queries/questions do let me know, I would be my pleasure to assist you with anything.
