Question

Workflows will not run on schedule

Workflow

asked on March 6, 2017 • Show version history

I have a client that has several workflows setup to run on a schedule. They do not launch on the schedule. They can be ran manually. The user that the Workflow service is running with is a domain admin service account with full rights to the workflows.

I have tried their workflows on my test server and they work fine and run on schedule.

Regards,

John

Sorry guys there was nothing in the error logs and the Task Scheduler looked perfect. There were other issues on this server I believe caused by some very restrictive GPOs and security settings. I asked for a fresh VM and reloaded everything and now they are working. So I chalked this up to that but have no real proof of it.

Are there any error message in the event log?

This is because when you uploaded the Workflows they originally had disabled schedules on whatever machine they were created and, when you decided to add them there, you enabled them when given the choice. However, this is a bug where it will enable them but they will remain hard disabled in Window Task Scheduler. Select them all there and right click, enable. If you needed any of those disabled then you can now safely do so from the Designer.

Of course, if my guess is not correct then, um, you're on your own :P.

Best of luck!
