Duplicate workflows are displayed after you create a SharePoint Server 2007 site from a site template

Article ID:951654
Last Review:June 10, 2008
Revision:2.0

SYMPTOMS

Consider the following scenario.
•You have a Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 site that includes a document library. This document library contains a document for which the Approval workflow and the Collect Feedback workflow are created.
•You save the site as a template.
•You create a new site that uses the saved template.
In this scenario, two instances of the Approval workflow and of the Collect Feedback workflow are displayed in the document library on the new site.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, remove the associations of the content type template before you create the site. This prevents duplicates of the content types from being created. However, the default associations that are saved in the content type template are not inherited by document libraries that are created through this template.

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry edits), please consult a professional.

Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
