Hi All,

I have custom workflow and we are seeing issues while it's running but we are not getting any relevant information in error.log.

I heard to configure a separate log for workflows we need to include out of the box workflow packages.

If anyone knows please give me the those out of box packages and i will configure a log.

Thanks,

Kishore

Finally ,

I have solved this issue by following below steps.

And observed my instances folder is created with incorrect sling:resourceType not sure why it's creating like that.

Issue while initiating workflow

 

 

Problem: I've deleted 'instances' folder inside /etc/workflow/ directory.  When I initiate the workflow, the folder 'instances' is automatically created under /etc/workflow/ but the workflow is not triggered on the payload.

Solution:

  • Make sure to delete the instances folder.
  • Save the changes
  • Create a instances node of type sling:folder
  • To the instances node add a property sling:resourceType with value equal to ‘cq/workflow/components/instances’

        Also add property jcr:title Instances

  • Restart the workflow bundle from felix console or restart the instance

yes ,i have only single workflow in my AEM instance.

Actually my workflow need not be triggered on any repository based events ,user will select the page in siteadmin and trigger workflow on it.

Once again thanks for sparing time on this issue.

Are you stills seeing the same error you posted previously?

What happens when you hit the url: http://localhost:4502/libs/cq/workflow/content/console/workflows.json

You only have a single workflow in your system?

When you go to the launcher tab, is your workflow definitely enabled? /libs/cq/workflow/content/console.html

Is the runmode the right one for the instance you are testing this? (You are on the author instance, right?)

Regards,

Opkar

Selecting page in site admin and then right click on it selecting workflow option from context menu,select workflow name.

I have followed the same steps mentioned and added payload but workflow is not starting.

Thanks,

How are you attempting to start the workflow?

Did you add a payload to it before starting it?

Thanks Opkar,i have followed the instructions sent by you and i see workflow-editors has permissions on /etc/workflow/models and it's same as /etc/workflow/models/dam/dam_download_asset  

workflow.

Now i have added user to workflow-editors group and tried to start the workflow but no luck.

Once Again Thank You.

Hi Kishore,

did you look at the permissions in CRXDE for the workflow you are trying to edit?

By default there are two groups: workflow-users, workflow-editors. Like I said, check the permissions.

Opkar

Hi,

when you go to "http://localhost:4502/crx/de/index.jsp#/etc/workflow/models/dam/dam_download_asset" open the "Access Control" tab and you will see which groups have permissions to edit the workflow.

Open your workflow and see what permissions your user has, I take it you are not logging in as an admin user?

Regards,

Opkar

 

The user with whom  i am trying to start the workflow is part of "administrators" group.

Do I need any more extra permission to start workflow?
