Sharepoint 2013 Workflow not available on Site created from Sharepoint 2013 Foundation Solution Template
If I create a template on SharePoint 2013 Foundation, then create a site on SharePoint Enterprise (or Office/365) fully configured to support SharePoint 2013 workflows. When I access the site through SharePoint Designer 2013, and attempt to create a workflow
SharePoint 2013 Workflows are not available -- you get message that SharePoint 2013 Workflow platform is not available because it is not configured on the server. This appears to be a bug in SharePoint Designer as the 2013 Workflows are available on the team
site on the same site collection. There is no reason that a site created from a SharePoint 2013 foundation template should have this restriction. To make matters worse if you then save that site as a template on the SharePoint 2013 Enterprise (or
Office/365) system and create a new site from the that template you get the same issue.
Anyone know a workaround/fix to this issue. Have imported the template into Visual Studio but I can not find any way in Visual Studio to enable SharePoint 2013 workflows. A solution that involves Visual Studio import would work fine
for me.

Apparently you did not read my question very carefully. The workflow manager is configured properly on this server and for the basic Team site in this site collection the full SharePoint 2013 workflows are available in SharePoint Designer 2013.
BUT they are not available on another site in the SAME SITE COLLECTION that was created from a solution template that was created on a SharePoint Foundation server.

Task Expiry in Workflow 2013 is not available
Hi,
I'm using Designer Workflow 2013, in that i need to Start a Task process. In that there is no option for Task Expiry i can find only Due Date.
In Workflow 2010 there is an option for Task Expiry so if the task is not responded within specified amount of time i can able to perform some operation then it will continue with the workflow. But in Workflow 2013 there is no option for Task Expiry.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
AhamedHi Ahamed,
I still recommend to use SharePoint 2010 workflow instead.
If you want to use 2013 workflow, I recommend to create another workflow and use retention policy to start the workflow when the due date expires.
The workflow can be created like the image below(as only due date needs to be changed, we can update the due date and send notification with the task URL to the user):
Thanks,
Victoria

SharePoint Online workflow not starting
Hi All,
I am an administrator for a company and I have been asked to create a workflow for them.
I created 2 workflows using SharePoint designer 2013. The 2010 workflow works as expected.
I created the 2013 workflow because I can use loops. However the 2013 workflow doesn't automatically start when an item is created. but works if I start it manually. I have checked and made sure that the check box is ticked for the workflow to start automatically.
The workflows go like this.
Step: Query Type
If Current Item:Query_Type equals Phone
Set Status to Opportunity
Else
If Current Item:Query_Type equals Email
Email Current Item:Sales_Rep2
Pause for 0 days, 0 hours, 15 minutes
If Current Item:Follow_Up equals No
Email Current Item:Sales_Rep2
Step: Rental or Not
If Current Item:Rental equals Yes
Email Current Item:Sales_Rep2
Pause for 0 days, 1 hours, 0 minutes
If Current Item:Quote_Sent equals No
Email Current Item:Sales_Rep2
Else
If Current Item:Rental equals No
Email Current Item:Sales_Rep2
Pause until Current Item:Date to Send Quote
Email Current Item:Sales_Rep2
And the 2013 one goes like this
Stage:Follow Up
Loop: Email to manager
The contents of this loop will run repeatedly while: Current Item:Follow_Up equals No
Pause for 0 days, 1 hours, 0 minutes
If Current Item:Follow_Up equals No
Email Current Item:Manager
If Current Item:Follow_Up equals Yes
Set Status to Opportunity
Transition to stage
Go to Rental or Not
Stage:Rental or Not
Loop: Escalation
The contents of this loop will run repeatedly while: Current Item:Quote_Sent equals No
Pause for 2 days, 0 hours, 0 minutes
If Current Item:Quote_Sent equals No
Email Current Item:Manager
Loop: Escalation
The contents of this loop will run repeatedly while: Current Item:Quote_Sent equals No
Pause for 7 days, 0 hours, 0 minutes
If Current Item:Quote_Sent equals No
and Current Item:Date to Send Quote is greater than Current Item:Date to Send Quote
Email Current Item:Manager
Transition to stage
Go to End of Workflow
If this makes sense? If not can anybody give me advice on how to get this working the way it is expected to work?Hi,
From your description, After you modified the workflow and added "App Step" to it and "Pause" actions apart from few other modifications, you got the issue that
SharePoint 2013 Workflow not starting when a new item is crated.
Whether you got the issue Before you modified the workflow.
I have done a test in my SharePoint 2013 and it works fine.
I suggest you update SharePoint to the latest CU.
Here is an blog similar with your issue, you can use as a reference:

Wifi is not available where I come from. I have broadband connection where data transmission is through cell sites then to USB modem connected to a computer. The modem draws power from the computer. Will this setup work with the ipad?
iPad requires Wifi (or 3G /LTE) to connect to the Internet. You cannot connect a USB modem to the iPad.
You can create your own WiFi hotspot through your computer for your iPad to connect to, if your computer supports this functionality. All Wifi Macs and many Wifi PCs do. Check your computer manual for how to do it. -

Hi All
I'm using Office365. And I wanted to delete a Site Collection from SharePoint admin center.
But at first, I couldn't delete it from there. So I opened the Site and delete it from the Site setting successfully.
Then I went back to SharePoint admin center to check it was deleted or not completely.
But the Site Collection was still on the Site Collections list.....
Things I did are
1. IE -> Tools->Internet Options-> In General Tab click on Delete in browsing history section and check all options and again click on delete.
2. Close and re-open the browser and sign back in
I wanna make free server resource to create new Site Collection.
Does anyone know how to delete a Site Collection completely?Hi,

Hi All,
I have opened a test server site in share point designer 2010, & deleted that particular site in SP designer 2010,can anyone let me know how to restore the site by using SharePoint Designer?
I followed below mentioned procedure to restore the site using SharePoint Designer
Open SharePoint Designer, File tab, Sites under File Tab, Open site, specified the URL of site,opened..
It is getting connected to the Organisation network & showing "path does not exist,check the path and try again".
Whether, Is it possible to restore the site deleted from share point designer in site collection recycle bin. or
Is it possible to copy the site from Production server to test server.
Waiting for an response at the earlier.
Thanks in Advance.
BadriHi Badri,
1.You could not restore site deleted from SharePoint designer in site collection, you can only restore the site deleted from
UI in site collection recycle bin, deleted from end user recycle bin.
2.You can export the site from production server, then import it to test server.

SharePoint 2013 Workflow Not Updating on Deployment
Developing a 2013 Workflow on SharePoint 2013 using Visual Studio 2012, deploying workflow changes does not update the workflow that runs. This has already been posted on the SP 2013 dev forum, but I wanted to check here with the workflow folks. Anyone run
into this issue before and/or have tips for solving?
Thanks.
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sharepointdevelopment/thread/cd543a00-f3ab-4a4a-8682-b81d8330b677
http://blog.randomdust.comThis issue is reported and I'll post about it once I have an update. For now to workaround this issue, you can try these steps
Change the default deployment option to “No Activation”
Retract the solution using Visual Studio
Deploy the solution. This time feature will not be activated by default as we have changed to “No Activation”
Open the SharePoint designer and click on the “Workflow” section. You will see your workflow already present there. Delete the workflow which you have created.
Activate the feature manually.
Now you should see your updated version.

SharePoint Designer 2013 -- Workflow Manager is required to create Workflow
Hi,
Is workflow manager is required to create workflow in SharePoint Designer 2013 for List Workflow. Is there any other alternative for this.
With Regards,
Jaskaran Singh BhattiSharePoint 2013 supports both 2010 legacy type workflows that run in the OWS timer service on the SharePoint server and 2013 workflows that run on a server running Workflow Manager. You can still create the same kind of workflows you created in SharePoint
2010 without Workflow Manager. That would include 2010 List Workflows. You only need Workflow Manager if you want to create the newer kind of workflows that use Workflow Manager. All the built-in workflows still use the 2010 legacy workflow
system. Both types of workflows can be created using SharePoint Designer 2013.

SharePoint 2013 Workflows not working

JamieHi,
Based on your description, my understanding is that when you ran SharePoint 2013 workflow, an error occurred.
You can try to re-register the Workflow Service.

Hello,
I'm running into a very interesting issue, we have a 2013 custom list that has some 2010 and 2013 workflows associated with it. Just until recently the workflows were working fine, but now only 2010 workflows are working.
I updated one of the 2013, tried to publish it but then I canceled the process of publishing it because I had to make a new update.... not sure if this flipped the switch on these but now even if I create new ones in SPD they will not run. Also if
I try to run in manually I get a message - "Something went wrong. To try again, reload the page and then start the workflow"(the option for start manually is enabled in SPD 2013). Any help on this will be greatly appreciated!Hi Ghabib05,
According to your description, my understanding is that you got an error when you ran a SharePoint 2013 workflow.
Afer you made some change in your workflow, whether you re-published the workflow. if not, please publish it, then test again, compare the result.
Please create a new SharePoint 2013 workflow on the list, then test, compare the result.
If this issue only occurred on the specifical workflow, I suggest you create a new workflow instead of the problematic one.
If this issue occurred on all SharePoint 2013 workflow, you can try to re-register workflow service.

2013 Workflow not working for tenant admin
Hi
I've been struggling with an issue developing a site for a client. They have their own SharePoint 2013 tenancy, which we can manage as a partner. I can log in to the site with my own company account linked to Office 365, and can do everything I need to in
terms of site administration.
However, I've run into a problem whereby although I can create and publish SharePoint 2013 workflows, I cannot run them successfully. If there is anything in the workflow such as writing to the history list, the workflow hangs with the status "Started"
and "Activity in progress" (no error message).
I've got around the problem by testing the workflow as a user from our client's tenancy, but I'm curious as to why my user doesn't work for this. It works fine for everything else, including SharePoint 2010 workflows. Is there some permission somewhere that
needs to be set, or is this by design?
DuncanHi Ganesh,
Based on your description, I recommend you verify the things below:
Check if the SharePoint search service account is added in the Windows Authorization Access Group in Active Directory.
Check if the non-admin users have permission to view the results searched.
Check if the inline search can work in lists’ pages or libraries’ pages.
Best regards.
Thanks

Based on my knowledge , physical DVD only can be mapped to IDE controller in VM .
"you can only assign the physical CD/DVD drive to one VM at the same time (running VM)."

Gen2 VM can add DVD device attach to SCSI controller and insert .ISO file (this file should be used by multiple VMs ).
