We are using a customized version of the (out-of-the-box) request for activation workflow. The last few steps are the same as the OOTB flow.
AEM version: 6.5 + SP 6.5.6
Expected:
When payload reaches the last steps without any on-time set, it is activated automatically.
Actual:
No matter what user (incl. admin) we use to trigger this WF for a page or asset, the WF gets stuck in the step "waiting for activation - Waiting for activation until the scheduled time is reached". This is a participant step assigned to admins.
No errors are seen in error.log.
Severity/Effect:
This is blocking the activation flow, as only admins would be able to tackle this.
Below you can see the last steps of the WF (where it gets stuck) and the Waiting for Activation step config.
