SharePoint Workflow Troubleshooting

For security reasons, the Setup account cannot be used to create a workflow based on the SharePoint 2013 Workflow platform. If you try to create a workflow based on the SharePoint 2013 Workflow platform by using SharePoint Designer 2013, you receive a warning that the list of workflow actions do not exist, and the workflow is not created.

The user who deploys and runs a workflow must be added to the User Profile service. Check the User Profile service application page in Central Administration to confirm that the user you are using to validate workflow installation is in the User Profile service.

You can determine which ports SharePoint Server 2013 and Workflow Manager are using for both HTTP and HTTPS by using IIS Manager as shown in the figure.

Workflow Manager communicates by using TCP/IP or Named Pipes. Make sure that the appropriate communication protocol is enabled on the SQL Server instance that hosts the Workflow Manager databases.

The SQL Browser Service must be running on the SQL Server instance that hosts the Workflow Manager databases.

The System Account cannot be used to develop a workflow.
