The following URL is not valid in Info Path form publishing

Problem:
I have created a leave form and tried to publish it to my "Leave Form" library located at http://sharepoint:2222/sites/bat/leave form. But Infopath 2010 generates an error "The following URL is not valid http://....". when i  enter this URL  for infopath form services site.
Figure: Infopath form Services URL 
Figure: Infopath form publishing error
After trying couple of times the following workaround solved my problem.
The way i solved it: 
I have created a Site Collection named Marketing (for example) on my Web Application at the root Which is under http://servername:2222/ but not under http://servername:2222/sites/ .
Figure: Create Site collection at the root of web application 
And this has solved my problem.Now i can publish my form at http://servername:2222/sites/sitename/leave form library.

Figure: Infopath form publishing successfully
That's all.

Difference Between Site Template and Site Definition Before going into direct comparison, let me define both: Site Templates  : Are  snapshots of  sites at a point in time. When a user customizes a site from the UI or SPD, the custom template consists of the difference between the original state of the site (determined by its definition) and the state of the site or list when the custom template is generated. Custom templates remain tied to a particular site definition (for example, the site definition for SharePoint Web sites or Meeting Workspace Web sites), so that if the site definition is not present or is changed, the custom template cannot work.
