AW: Workflow execution problem in version 4.6B

[Schaffer, Klaus]

Hi Kjetil,
 
I already experienced the same in a 45B System. I got the impression, that
the task is internally defect. I created the same task (identically the same
texts, decisions) new and it worked. Copying the defect task will not help.
 
Ciao. Klaus

Hi Kjetil,
maybe the cause of the error are the bindings.
Try to remove and recreate the bindings. I think
it should work then.
Best regards
Joe
