Workflow verification test failed

a workflow I created last week was still working properly, but today when I ran it, it failed at the decision step. Therefore I ran the simple workflow verification test, a work item was created and sent to the inbox, then I executed the work item, it failed immediately, looked at the log, the failing point is at decision step again. that's really weird. configuration seems to be all fine in swu3, my doubt is someone in the system changed settings, but it's nearly possible for me to trace what kinda change was made. any suggestion?
Thanks.

What error message is appearing? Please analyse the Workflow Log from SWIA. It is impossible to help you with so much less information.
Thanks

  • Workflow configuration error - System Account connection test failed

    Hi,
    Has anybody faced a problem with Workflow configuration? The version we are using is 2.6.2 on Oracle database 9.2.0.5 on AIX5L. The workflow installation from 9.2.0.1 installation CDs goes through without any problem. But when the workflow configuration tool comes up it fails with the following error.
    "SYSTEM account connection test failed".
    The system and sys accounts are fine as verified by sqlplus. Any help is greatly appreciated.
    The log file is shown below.

    We had this problem on 2 machines.
    On the 1st machine, we tried the local install option after a few days (Local option with no connect string) and it worked with no problems!
    On the 2nd machine, we could never get it to work even after opening a tar with Oracle. Finally we did a remote install from the 1st machine into the database on the 2nd machine. During the remote install while running wfinstall on the 1st machine, we just had to choose the remote option and the database service name for the connect string.
    Thanks,

  • First Step in Workflow Verification

    Hi,
    I did the workflow configuration by using SWU3 successfully. For initial testing, i did Start Verification Workflow and i got the intial workitme in my SAP inbox. The i selected First step in Workflow Verification in my SAP inbox, but in the next sceen it was not displaying the Use Decision Steps (Immediatley and Later). It was showing blank screen. This is happening for all workflows (selected standard workflows for testing purpose). Initial workitem is displaying in my SAP inbox abd after executing nothing is displaying in the second screen. My understanding is becuase of authorization to execute the work item.
    If any one faces the same problem, please share with me.
    Regards,
    Steve

    Hi,
    Check your container object and see the Decisions are alloted are not?
    Standard Program - It will go to another user. it wont come to you.

  • Before Workflow Notification Mailer fails sends failure alert.

    Hi,
    We are using Oracle E-Business Suit R12. It happens few times that Workflow Notification Mailer fails (unknown reason), thus stopping all the upcoming alerts.

  • Color LaserJet MFP M476nw Fax Test failed

    I bought a new LaserJet M476nw, but my fax test fails everytime through the laserjet setup and HP utilities software.  The Laserjet is connected on a network and using Vista.  
    I have a dedicated fax line connected from the jack to the icon with the jack on the back of the laserjet.   I can hear dial tone on the fax line when connected to a phone.   I have called the fax line and it is rings normally and no answer.   I also tried connecting a phone to the laserjet phone icon, while the fax line is connected to the laserJet, I can hear the dial tone from the phone.
    I do not know what else I should do to get the fax test to pass, so I can start faxing on this new machine.  Any suggestion is appreciated.

    Actually this problem is now solved.  
    It was a brand new machine, so since I really didn't have any data so I did a restore default.  It rebooted and now it passes.

  • Pavilion G6-1203ey: Hard Disk Test FAILED, but can still boot into Windows

    Hello
    I have HP Pavilion G6-1203ey laptop. After installing Windows (7 ultimate, 64 bit) and some drivers on it and after several restarts, it hanged at Windows logo and I had to turn it off with power button. Then after turning it on, it gave me the option to repair problems which are preventing it from starting up, from there I let it to restore the computer to an earlier restore point and after a restart the Windows was working again. After that I decided to do a hard disk check just in case.
    The Hard Disk Self Test ended up with a message: Hard Disk 1 Full (305). Then I installed HP Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) Support Environment and did hard disk from there. I chose the comprehensive test from the options, but it finished fairly quickly (in ~1 minute) with the following output:
    Testing Drive: 1
    Hard Disk SMART Check : PASSED
    Hard Disk Short DST : FAILED
    FAILURE ID : PTTU22-5T774L-MFPV4K-60S003
    PRODUCT ID : A5Q15EA#B1R
    Hard Disk 1
    Hard Disk Test : FAILED
    A bit more background:
    The previous owner told me that the original HDD was faulty which is why he replaced it with this one last year. He said that other than that there has been no problems with the laptop. The Windows is working right now and this HDD is quite new so I would not have expected any problems with it, but the results from the previously mentioned tests seem troubling. Is there a reason to worry?
    Thanks

    Hi Alnuir,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
    I read your post and looked into the failure ID that you posted regarding the failed Short DST test. That error is indicating a hard disk failure meaning that if it hasn't failed it might soon. If everything is working I would considering backing up your data on a regular basis just to be safe. You could have a local technician take a look at the hard drive to see how close it is to full failure.

  • Unit test fails after upgrading to Kodo 4.0.0 from 4.0.0-EA4

    I have a group of 6 unit tests failing after upgrading to the new Kodo
    4.0.0 (with BEA) from Kodo-4.0.0-EA4 (with Solarmetric). I'm getting
    exceptions like the one at the bottom of this email. It seems to be an
    interaction with the PostgreSQL driver, though I can't be sure. I
    haven't changed my JDO configuration or the related classes in months
    since I've been focusing on using the objects that have already been
    defined. The .jdo, .jdoquery, and .java code are below the exception,
    just in case there's something wrong in there. Does anyone have advice
    as to how I might debug this?
    Thanks,
    Mark

  • Windows App Certification Kit - Test Fails for Validate Desktop App at "Write appropriate Add/Remove Program values"

    Hi,
    I am trying to validate a .Net Framework 4 WinForms application for use in the Microsoft Partner Network portal.
    I am using Windows App Certification Kit 3.4 for Windows 8.1 , and the Validate Desktop App option.
    To build the package I am using InstallShield 2012 SPR Limited Edition (for Visual Studio), and the validation fails
    only with the following error (please also see the attached image):
    Clean reversible install test: Failed to Write appropriate Add/Remove Program values
    Error Found: The registry population test detected the following error: app didn't create the required registry entries.
    A non-optional value 'DisplayName' is missing or invalid (same for 'Publisher', 'ProductVersion')
    Please note that I have filled in all the publisher/product details in the InstallShield project, on the General Information page.
    Also I have tried to use the Microsoft Visual Studio Installer Project for VS2013, and the validation failed with the exact same error.
    (https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/9abe329c-9bba-44a1-be59-0fbf6151054d)
    Any help would be very appreciated.
    Thank you.

    You may need to add the necessary info to the app’s Windows Installer package so it can configure Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel correctly. Setting these properties automatically writes the corresponding values into the registry. From the picture,
    you are missing some necessary information about your desktop app.
    Also You need the correct admin permissions to write to the registry.

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6-1100eo Entertainment Notebook PC  (P/N: NR597EA) with Vista 32-bit.  Unfortunately no warranty left in and general I have been very happy with this notebook.
    However suddenly Wondows would not start up - and it did not even find Startup Recovery partition on the harddisk. As I wasn't sure if this Startup Recovery was on hard disk or not - I ordered System Recovery DVDs for this Scandinavian language version.
    These disks did not work - so I figured I have probably not done my homework before ordering those disks.
    Then I ran system Diagnostics (even if I have a old BIOS version F.03).  On the diagnositics - both Quick and Full Hard disk test failed during the first 1% of the scan.
    Is there anything that can be done - or is the only option new hard disk? In case - what hard disk is recommended that is not too expensive - as I don't want to invest too much into a soon 3 year old notebook.
    I recently bougth an external harddisk (1 TB) based on USB connection. Can that be used bypassing internal HD. In this way I would increase HD capacity and not invest anymore into this notebook - since I already have the recovery DVDs
    It is probably only a time question before I will buy a new HP notebook - that is why I don't want any long permanent fix of this problem.
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
    Sorry to say, but you won't be able to install or boot Vista from the external HDD, so if you need to get the notebook working, you're going to have to replace the internal drive.
    The drive on the link below is an example of one that would be fine for your notebook.
    500Gb Hard Drive
    The procedure to replace the Hard Drive starts on Page 57 of your Maintenance & Service Guide.
    Once done, simply use your Recovery DVDs to reinstall the Operating System on the new drive.

  • Massive stability issues - Disk Utility repair failed, hardware test failed

    Hi,
    I am having massive stability issues. The installer will not install anything, programs are quitting randomly, and it is getting very annoying!
    I read through a lot of posts and I have attempted to:
    Repair my disk using the install cd: but that failed.
    I did a Hardware test: but i had an error relating to fonts (?), couldn't see anything on the screen and I couldn't do anything.
    Is there something else I could do that I haven't tried?
    I have had my PB for a little over a year and have had no issues like this before. All of these issues seemed to start when I was playing a game and it suddenly just quit; I then couldn't go back into the game or re-install the game.
    Help!!

    Hi, Dan.
    You wrote: "Repair my disk using the install cd: but that failed."That's a big problem. You won't get very far until the problems noted by Repair Disk, the function I presume you ran based on your description, are sorted out. It's possible the hard drive has failed.
    If the Apple Hardware Test failed, that's another significant problem. If it produces messages you can read that describe the failure, write them down. The machine may need to be serviced by an Apple Authorized Service Provider.
    As to your next steps, first run the procedure specified in my "Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption" FAQ. Perform the steps therein in the order specified to see what's up with your disk and if anything can be done to correct that.
    Good luck!

  • My Macbook aliminium unibody from late 2008 will not boot. I reach the grey screen with the apple icon and the spinning grey gear. I used disk utility to boot it but it said integrity test failed. I don't know what to do can anyone please help?

    Sounds like you may have a harddrive issue.  You are probably going to need to get that changed out and then install the OS X again to get it going.

  • [svn] 1013: Bug: LCDS-180 - [WebLogic 10.1 on Suse9] MxUnit Dynamic destination "SecurityEmployeeUser" test fails with a NullPointerException

    Bug: LCDS-180 - [WebLogic 10.1 on Suse9] MxUnit Dynamic destination "SecurityEmployeeUser" test fails with a NullPointerException
    QA: Yes
    Doc: No
    Details:
    This prevents the NPE but for non-servlet endpoints you need to be sure to define your users/roles in Weblogic's default security realm. The test was failing because login was failing, most likely because the regression server wasn't fully configured.

  • WebDynpro for Abap Test failed (System Admin/Support/WD)

    Hello,
    I'm using EP 7.0 and I'm trying to test travel&expenses (Ehp3) WD for Abap from System Admin/Support Desk: Integration of SAP Applications/WebDynpro and we get the following error: Exception in SAP Application Integrator occured: Unable to parse template...the problem occured at position 275. Cannot process expression &lt;IView.PCDUnit.ShortID&gt; because Unable to get PCD Unit com.sap.portal.appintegrator.sap.WebDynpro.
    System contector test is ok. Please, could you help me?
    Thank you

    Hello Michael,
    Ok, I forget system connector and support tests. Web AS parameter are supposed to be ok:
    Web AS Host Name: host.domain:port (from smicm tx)
    Web AS Host Name: /sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/
    Web AS Protocol:     http
    but the SAP Web AS Connection test fails. When trying to execute the iView it works. Does it mean that is it correct? Why WAS connection test fails?
    In the other hand, when iView is displayed, it asks for user and password because the R/3 user is locked. Why R/3 user is locking everytime?
    Thank you&Regards
