Workflow '63011967' work item 63016296: No successor definedfor event?

Thu Aug 18 10:00:49 EDT 2005

Hi Rick

If I remember correctly, I saw this error once before when an Outcome was
incorrect on task/step - though note that I did not have the 'Task
completed by hand' twist to this. The workflow log was not particularly
helpful to me, as the outcomes all appeared to be fine there, each nicely
leading to a subsequent task.

I finally found the issue when I went in to edit the task (in the Dev
environment), and then back into the step. The system highlighted to me
that the outcomes did not match. Following that correction, re-activation,
and subsequent transport, all was fine.

I think I got into this mess by modifying the task or the method without
then updating the already-activated workflow, which was subsequently
transported into prod.

Mike,
_RESULT is null (space) and the step is flagged "completed" so I cannot
change the container values for that task.

The action "completed by hand" from my understanding is only supposed to
occur
when an Admin manually completes the task.
Correct?

Rick

Hi Rick,
I've seen this on a 6.20 system and never got to the bottom of it. Check
the step container, and you should find that _RESULT is 0 - an outcome
which isn't modelled as all the decisions are 1-n. Might have been
_WI_RESULT. Hence a very sensible (if a bit unhelpful) error message 'No
successor defined'.

You may be able to change _RETURN to 1 or whatever the decision outcome
should have been and restart to help the poor confused item find it's
way back into the flow.

My plan was to physically go over to a user as soon as it happened
whilst still fresh in their memory and find out EXACTLY what they did.
It could be a bug in the inbox or whatever.... but I wasn't on site long
enough to find out the cause.

Please post back if you find out, as I'm curious too.
Cheers
Mike
