Question

I use 2013 workflows in my SharePoint solution.

A few days ago the workflow server shut down and the SharePoint app did not work properly. So I wonder if there is a possibility to check the state of the Workflow server before the user gets to use the app?

So I could check if the server is reachable and display an error otherwise.

Was it helpful?

Solution

Are you talking about the workflow service? You can navigate to yourdomain:12291/ and auth as a user belonging to the workflow manager admin group - see if you get back an XML file.

OTHER TIPS

Ok, that was my exact thought. But what if the server is running, but has an error. Then I would get a 500 error back, but not what the problem really is. So I cannot log the error to the ULS for example.

best regards Alex
