Publishing Errors

Workflow Actions Pack SharePoint 2013/2016 version
1

Hello

i've encountered some problems when publishing a workflow with actions from the action pack.

The error i get is:

Microsoft.Workflow.Client.ActivityValidationException: Workflow XAML failed validation due to the following errors:
Cannot create unknown type '{clr-namespace:Plumsail.ActionsPack}ExchangeSendEmail'. HTTP headers received from the server - ActivityId: ad0683cd-8aef-4906-8620-21c640cc9a35. NodeId: SSPFEDC01. Scope: /SharePoint/default/eb5fb786-8c89-4150-90f1-bb0cc644b361/934165be-34e4-4f86-b39e-9ddc8f260bd2. Client ActivityId : e935d5a0-cc33-8014-5be5-28d2b9c10073. ---> System.Net.WebException: T

After the webexception the error is cut off.

i tried a lot of different things, also found in some other posts with disabling and enabling the feature and clearing the designer cache but nothing seems to work.

Hi @Dario_Chiga,

It may be the SharePoint designer issue. Could you try the steps from the article?

We also discussed a similar subject here. Please take a look.

Yes i already tried doing the steps from this article but with no results.

The Problem is that the Action Pack doesn't deploy correctly.

During the Installation it always says that the solution has been deployed successfully but as you can see below the solution is not deployed.

Something else that happens is that when i try to install the workflow action pack on the Applicaton and Search Server whole SharePoint doesn't work anymore.

We have 2 Servers in our Farm. one is application and search server and the other is frontent and sitributed cache server.

on the front end server the installation works almost correctly with the error screenshot from the post above where the solution is not deployed correctly.

on the application server the whole installation crashes the services.

Hi @Dario_Chiga,

Did you try to completely remove the application with the wizard?

Was it successful? There are certain steps that should be done to remove it correctly.

Also, please make sure to download the latest version of the installer.
