  • 1.  Auto Configurable Start and Debugger

    Posted Jun 08, 2017 07:46 AM

    Hello,

    is possible to start a autostart projekt only once in debugger?
    The "Configurable Auto Start" is starting the workflow every 1 min.

    Best regards,

    Stephan

    If it has already been published move it to a Stopped App Pool first.

    Are you using the AutoStart component or the AutoStart setting in the project tab?

    You could change it and just run the invoke manually.

    It has not been published.
    My start component is a Configurable Auto Start and in project tab i have this settings

    Workflow Type: Auto Start
    Start With Primary Model: True
    Run Auto Start until Does Not Start: False
    Schedule: every Monday 13:00 o'clock

    Maybe i don't understand what you mean with "change it".

     

    Best regards,

    Stephan

    It's a pain but you could change the AutoStart component to just a Start (green arrow) while you're testing, swap it back when you're finished.

    Create a new model then right click and disable, cut the autostart component out and paste it in there to move it back later.

    :-D That's exactly my workaround for this problem.

    Yes, it's really a pain and in my opinion stupid developing.
    Maybe they will fix this problem in one of the next releases.

    There is one more problem.
    With the "normal start" i can't use the "Pause Execution Workflow" component.

     

    Thank you very much,

    Stephan

    Suggestions are made by raising Ideas. If you ever want something new etc raise one there.

    Pause: Would you mind raising an issue with Symantec Support? If it gets logged it's more likely to be fixed in a later build.

    Thank you for your help.

    The Blue one helps me only wir time smaller then the timeout. I will wait 7 day's later at deployed version.

    If you need the WF execution timeout changing this can be done via the web.config of the project.

    <httpRuntime executionTimeout="110" />

    Resources | web.config | edit

    Sometimes this doesn't save and deploy with changes, so you may have to change it in the output directory too.
