Resolution
To resolve this issue you can do either one of the following.
- Redeploy the NintexLiveCore.wsp solution if the you want it running on the farm.
- If you do not want the NintexLiveCore.wsp solution, you should disable the prerequisite services for Nintex Live and external settings and stop the Nintex Live Workflow Service running on the server.
Error Code
Sorry, something went wrong. An unexpected error has occured.
Additional Information
Upon checking the logs, it seems the issue is coming from a failure to load the Nintex Live dll. When the subsite page is opened, behind the scenes we check if the External Start feature is enabled and load it’s dependencies if it is enabled with the Nintex Live.dll being one of the dependencies
The likely cause of this issue is that you may have retracted the NintexLiveCore.wsp solution and either didn’t stop the Nintex Live Workflow Service running on the server or didn’t disable the prerequisite services for External Start within the Nintex Live Workflow Service.
