Symptoms

Cannot Create New Workflow
 

Diagnoses

When launching the K2Designer, I am able to create SmartObjects, Views and Forms from the SQL service I've connected, however, I cannot create a workflow in the designer. When I try to create a new Workflow, I get an error: "Server Error Object reference not set to an instance of an object." I haven't been able to find any existing support topics describing this problem. Any suggestions?

 

Resolution

The following steps resolved the issue.
Go to K2_Install_DirK2 blackpearlK2 smartforms DesignerWorkflow
-Make a backup of the web.config.
- Edit the web.config
- Find the connection stings for:
HostServerConnectionString
ExportServer
RuntimeServer
SmartObjectServer
- Change the connectionstrings to be integrated, eg:
Integrated=TrueIsPrimaryLogin=TrueAuthenticate=TrueHost={HOSTNAME}Port=5555
-Perform an iisreset and try to re-deploy the workflow again.
