One more NINTEX issue, today I am going to
discuss some more details with respect to one workflow issue which has been configured
using NINTEX.
Problem
Description:
The “xxxname of the workflowxxx” workflow has ended unexpectedly
for ‘xxxname of the itemxxx’.
“name of the workflow” failed to start.
Click here to view the workflow status.
As
soon as we click on “click here to view workflow
status” then we get the following exception.
Error
Message:
Cannot find history for workflow
with instanceId a39c080f-1215-47eb-7f7a-6242e3882e5e. It may have been removed
from the database.
Troubleshooting
done:
-Checked
the SharePoint logs
-Checked
the event logs
-Checked
the NINTEX REPORTS based on that specific site collection
-Tried
opening the site in Mozilla Firefox to debug by means of FIRBUG
-Checked
the workflow history exist or not for that specific list
Resolution:
From
the error message, we have a instance id of the list on which we are trying to
check the workflow history.
Here
are some links that I have referred to get the instance id:
But
the strange thing was the item did not exist, how did I find out this? It’s
very simple…
Let’s do
some analysis on the error message again!!!
The “xxxname of the workflowxxx” workflow has ended unexpectedly
for ‘xxxname of the itemxxx’.
“name of the workflow” failed to start.
Click here to view the workflow status.
-now try to click on name of the workflow item
-as soon as we clicked on that item then we got the following
error message:
File not found.
Troubleshoot issues with Microsoft SharePoint Foundation.

From the above exception, it’s very clear that the item does not
exist.
Issue resolved. We are good now…
