Workflow error Failed on Start (retrying)

When I run my custom workflow, it gives error Failed on Start (retrying) each time. It was working properly, but now it gives the mentioned error. Even I have created two more very simple custom workflow on testing list, they even did not work and gave the same error. How to rectify this error.

Hi,
I am also facing this same issue and I have been scratching my head since last 2 days.
I have created a blog site. There is a SPD workflow attached to the Post list and Comments list with a few number of activities like Build Dynamic String, Send Email etc. Both the lists (Post & Comments) have content approval set. Point is whenever I
am creating a new post or new comments, the workflow column is showing "Failed on Start (retrying)". Then after a few moments it's getting completed, activities are working and sometimes getting stopped.
Checking the log files under 12 hive I got : 
System.ArgumentException: Value does not fall within the expected range.
RunWorkflow: System.ArgumentException: Value does not fall within the expected range.     at Microsoft.SharePoint.Workflow.SPWorkflowActivationProperties..ctor(SPWorkflow workflow, Int32 runAsUserId, String associationData, String initiationData)
    at Microsoft.SharePoint.Workflow.SPWinOEWSSService.MakeActivation(SPWorkflow workflow, SPWorkflowEvent e)     at Microsoft.SharePoint.Workflow.SPWinOeEngine.RunWorkflow(Guid trackingId, SPWorkflowHostService host, SPWorkflow workflow,
Collection`1 events, TimeSpan timeOut)     at Microsoft.SharePoint.Workflow.SPWorkflowManager.RunWorkflowElev(SPWorkflow originalWorkflow, SPWorkflow workflow, Collection`1 events, SPRunWorkflowOptions runOptions)
I don't know what is the issue. But still it's not getting resolved.
I have already tried the below tricks following various forums and blogs.
Checked removing the Send Email & Build Dynamic String activity.
Checked the app pool account (IIS) and service account (Central Admin) and changed them both to NETWORKSERVICE account.
Checked and compared all the entries in web.config and GAC
Tried repairing the perfCounters
Tried this blog - http://sharepoint.indigoreality.com/2013/01/14/sharepoint-designer-2010-error-could-not-publish-the-workflow-because-the-workflow-configuration-file-contains-errors/
Tried deactivating the features with the word "workflow"
Tried another workflow with another custom list. Same thing is happening.
Also tried an OOB approval workflow. Task is getting created and mail is coming. But workflow column is showing "Failed on Start (retrying)".
Please help me out. I am using MOSS 2007 and SPD 2007.
Thanks a lot in advance.

  • Out of the box approval workflow suddenly failed on start (retrying)

    SharePoint 2010. I've been using out of the box approval workflow for several month now. I did some minor changes to it, like to who and when emails should be send, but that's all.
    Then out of a sudden it stopped working. New request status is "Failed on start (retrying)". Sometimes (!) status is "In Progress", but no tasks are created. In both cases there is nothing on workflow history and error report is also empty
    (it even cause an error "Report contains no data").
    I'm sure that I didn't change anything in a workflow. The only think that I changed was an InfoPath form, but I only added there field "Created By", so I would see in calendar later who created this request. I couldn't see how this might affect workflow
    process.
    I'm confused as I don't even know where to start searching for the solution. Why this might happen? Any ideas are very welcome!

     In my list I have a multiple choice field which is not required. When it was
    blank my workflow was failing on start! This field was not involved in a workflow directly, I included it only in the email to approver. When I deleted it from an email everything was fine.

    Hi David,

    Cannot Place or Receive Calls After a Secure Profile is Enabled
    Problem   After a secure profile is enabled for a user, the user cannot place or receive calls. The user might see the following error message multiple times:
    Failed to start conversation
    The user can use the instant messaging features.
    This problem occurs if a secure profile is enabled for the user in Cisco Unified Communications Manager while either of the following is true:
    •The user is signed in to Cisco Unified Personal Communicator.
    •The cucsf.exe process is running on the computer of the user, that is, Cisco Unified Personal Communicator is running, but the user has not signed in.
    Ask the user to sign out of Cisco Unified Personal Communicator, then sign in again.
    Hope it helps,

    Yes, they are not talking to DNS Server as they are installed in LAB, LAB network does not communicate with Production.
    If I configure everything in Lab i.e. Hostname, IP address, Domain Name, Name server, NTP server and then put them in to production whether it will work? Or tell me the best way to configure them!

    Hi,
    I am new to this Studio Creator 2 so that I decided to follow "Sun Java Studio Creator 2 - Tutorials - Using the Debugger".
    I followed the instructions word by word and have no problem running it.
    But Whenever I run it under the 'debugging' mode, I got an error ( at step 2. Examining local variables in the tutorial) as follows.
    It directs me to look at the server log file for more and I clicked on the link on the same pane (Output window in the bottom of IDE) but it doesn't mean much to me -- partly due to me being a newbie???
    Here is a bunch of error messages being generated under the debug mode[F5]. Did anyone have a similar problem before?

  • Frustrated beyond belief.   Trying to download the new Itunes 11 version so I can sync my phone.   It goes thru the whole process, says I was successful and then I get a message - "Apple Mobile Device Failed to start----retry, and retry, same message.

    On my desk computer, I tried to download the new Itunes 11 version.   I had Itunes 10.  It goes thru the whole process and then says "Apple Mobilve Devide failed to start, Verify you have sufficient privileges to start service.   I hit retry and then I get  Installation successful followed by error 126.   I can not enter Itunes at all now.   If I click on the former icon it says  MSVCR80.dll for error.   I can't even figure out how to ask for support on this website.   I have several devices linked to Itunes and need to sync.

    Solving the iTunes Installation Problems in Windows
    1. Apple has posted their solution here: iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows- Unable to install or open - MSVCR80 issue.
    2. If the Apple article does not fully resolve the problem for you, then try Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates - MSVCR80.

    Updating system with pacman didn't solve it.
    Did I miss something out while migrating to systemd, is it a problem with SLiM or user session maybe ? Do you guys have any ideas where to start ? Thanks.

    Have you looked in this log file to see why the OCR is inaccessible? Have you looked in the ASM instance's alert log for other clues?

  • Leave workflow error cannot be started.Check entitlements error

    Hi,
    Hope someone helps me.
    I am using a copy of WS20000081 and when there is an erroneous entry this error gets displayed. Even if I update the erroneous entry when I click the Send button this message still gets saved. I would need to click the Exit button for the entry to get routed for approval.
    Does anyone know how to disable this check or how not to display this error message?
    Thanks and best regards.

    What is the specific error you are getting?
    Thanks
