Hi Everyone,

We are using a built-in workflow. Recently, we solve a problem where it does not send emails to approvers. We just disable/enable the Immediate Alerts timer job and set creation of alerts by users to no limit.

After solving the problem, a new problem comes out where an Error event type in Workflow History occurs. This happens after approval of an item. Please refer below for the workflow history:

Date Occurred	Event Type	User ID	Description	Outcome
03/05/2009 10:33 PM	Workflow Initiated	User	Notice Board Workflow was started. Participants: Notice Board Admins
03/05/2009 10:33 PM	Task Created	User	Task created for Notice Board Admins. Due by: None
03/05/2009 10:35 PM	Task Completed	User	Task assigned to Notice Board Admins was approved by System Account. Comments: Approved	Approved by System Account
03/05/2009 10:35 PM	Error	System Account	An error has occured in Notice Board Workflow.

Is there any way tocorrect theerror? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Joel Ballesta

Hi Frank,

I already managed to solve the issue because of this thread:

You shouldun-check theUpdate the approval status (use this workflow to control content approval) option in Workflow settingsif the Content Approval of versioning settings is disabled.

Microsoft should check on this matter to make it easily to debug.

By the way here is the log entry:

WinWF Internal Error, terminating workflow Id# 60b33662-d063-4fae-9ca4-702e02a400e7

System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null. Parameter name: name at System.Resources.ResourceManager.GetString(String name, CultureInfo culture) at Microsoft.Office.Workflow.LocUtil.GetResourceString(SPWeb web, String resourceId) at Microsoft.Office.Workflow.ReviewRouting.SetItemMetadata(Object sender, EventArgs e) at System.Workflow.ComponentModel.Activity.RaiseEvent(DependencyProperty dependencyEvent, Object sender, EventArgs e) at Microsoft.SharePoint.WorkflowActions.LogToHistoryListActivity.Execute(ActivityExecutionContext context) at System.Workflow.ComponentModel.ActivityExecutor`1.Execute(T activity, ActivityExecutionContext executionContext) at System.Workflow.ComponentModel.ActivityExecutor`1.Execute(Activity activity, ActivityExecutionContextexecutionContext) at System.Workflow.ComponentModel.ActivityExecutorOperation.Run(IWorkflowCoreRuntime workflowCoreRuntime) at System.Workflow.Runtime.Scheduler.Run()

May I suggest detaching and re-attaching workflow?
