Hi All,
I'm having a few problems getting some SharePoint workflows going. I am using VS 2008, and started out trying to build a simple sequential workflow so I can get more familiar with coding under the WF / SharePoint model, but have run into what I think are a couple of problems, one of which I think I'm on top of, another which I'm not. The workflow is on an e-mail enabled document library, and the e-mails that come into the library have a unique subject line, but a subject line that contains colon characters. For example the original e-mail that generated the following entries had a subject line of "InboundRequest/IDX:13455242 - ID:1A10E6014CE4FF23CA257412000504B9". Interestingly the first colon seems to have been replaced with a space, but the second colon in the subject line appears to have been simply dropped. 03/27/2008 12:19:44.71 OWSTIMER.EXE (0x07AC) 0x0C80 Windows SharePoint Services General 8kh7 High There is no file with URL 'InboundRequest/IDX 13455242 - ID1A10E6014CE4FF23CA257412000504B9' in this Web. 03/27/2008 12:19:44.87 OWSTIMER.EXE (0x07AC) 0x0C80 Windows SharePoint Services Workflow Infrastructure 72fv Unexpected AutoStart Workflow: System.ArgumentException: Value does not fall within the expected range. at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPWeb.GetFile(String strUrl) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Workflow.SPWorkflowAutostartEventReceiver.AutoStartWork flow(SPItemEventProperties properties, Boolean bCreate, Boolean bChange, AssocType atyp) Can someone confirm that my supposition that the colons are the problem here is correct? I am now pre-processing the e-mails to ensure the colons are no longer present in the subject line, but now I'm getting entries in the log like the following: 03/31/2008 15:43:10.70 OWSTIMER.EXE (0x08EC) 0x0F68 Windows SharePoint Services Workflow Infrastructure 72fv Unexpected AutoStart Workflow: System.ArgumentException: New instances of this workflow template are currently disallowed. at Microsoft.SharePoint.Workflow.SPWorkflowManager.StartWorkflowElev(SPListItem item, SPFile file, SPWorkflowAssociation association, SPWorkflowEvent startEvent, Boolean bAutoStart, Boolean bCreateOnly) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Workflow.SPWorkflowAutostartEventReceiver.AutoStartWork flow(SPItemEventProperties properties, Boolean bCreate, Boolean bChange, AssocType atyp) Any suggestions gratefully accepted. Have I mis-configured the workflow in some way?
