    Hi,
    I built a workflow that calls a custom workflow. When i try to publish it, i get an error.
    In the trace log, the error is:
    Stack Trace Info: [ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection.
    Parameter name: index]

    So what could be the cause of that error?
    Thank you

    Hi Sabine,

    My guess is that the issue is related to the custom workflow activity.  Is it a complex activity?  If you remove the custom workflow activity, does it publish ok?

    Hi,

    Here's the list I'd use to try to debug this:

    0.  Have you tried iisreset and restarting the ms async service?
    1.  do you have one of the latest ur installed such as ur 6 or 7?
    2.  are you an administrator in crm and owner of the workflow?
    3.  if the workflow is sending any emails - readd any entries in the to or from on the email?
    4.  Does the workflow use plugin workflow extensions?  If so, see if the error is related to the plugin

    Hi Alex,
    Thanks for your reply.
    0. I did iisreset and restarting ms asyn service --> no result
    1. I have update rollup 4 installed but i don't think this is the cause because it has been there for a long time and i've been publishing lot of kinds of wfs with no problem at all
    2. i am admin and owner of the workflow
    3. I am not sending any emails from the workflow
    4. The workflow calls a custom workflow activity

    Any idea what this could be causing the error?
