Undeploy workflow on Alfresco Community Edition

Hi all.

I'm learning workflow process development for alfresco (community edition).
Have deployed simple workflow on alfresco using bootstrap method.
Now I need to undeploy it, but can not find how to do it.

I have removed xml files but workflow is shown in "Start Workflow" menu anyway.
there is no workflow console for community edition.

Any help?

Jeff, thanks for your response.

I solved the situation. I found a file at the following path: \tomcat\webapps\share\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco\share-config.xml. That file contains a section for hiding simple workflows. It works for me.

<hidden-workflows>

<workflow name="activiti$activitiReviewPooled"/>
<workflow name="activiti$activitiParallelReview"/>
<workflow name="activiti$activitiParallelGroupReview"/>
<workflow name="activiti$quickStartReviewPublish"/>
<workflow name="activiti$quickStartReviewPublishTree"/>
<workflow name="activiti$activitiAdhoc"/>


<workflow name="jbpm$wcmwf:*"/>
<workflow name="jbpm$wf:articleapproval"/>

<workflow name="activiti$publishWebContent"/>
<workflow name="jbpm$publishWebContent"/>

<workflow name="jbpm$inwf:invitation-nominated"/>
<workflow name="jbpm$imwf:invitation-moderated"/>
<workflow name="activiti$activitiInvitationModerated"/>
<workflow name="activiti$activitiInvitationNominated"/>
<workflow name="activiti$activitiInvitationNominatedAddDirect"/>
<workflow name="activiti$resetPassword"/>
</hidden-workflows>

1. Go to the Workflow Console, which is http://localhost:8080/alfresco/faces/jsp/admin/workflow-console.jsp
2. Type "show definitions all" then click Submit to get the list of deployed workflows. Copy the workflow definition ID of the workflow you want to undeploy. It should look something like "activiti$publishWebContent:1:29"
3. Type "undeploy definition [workflow definition ID]" then click Submit.

You can also undeploy using the name rather than the definition ID. You can type "help" and click Submit to see more useful commands.

Thank you.

I have managed to undeploy workflow with these steps.
only issue I have had was that I was authenticating in Share, not in Alfresco, so console page refused to open due to permission issues.

After "discovering" alfresco login page, everything went smooth

hi,

i'm not able to undeploy the workflow as it shows syntax error in admin workflow console

What command did you type in the admin workflow console?

hi, Jeff I followed your indications and the result is positive, but when the machine is rebooted, the workflows are deployed again.

It sounds like those workflows are configured for automatic deployment via Spring. You have to remove the reference to them from your Spring configuration or they will continue to be automatically deployed on every restart.
