Content Type Publishing does not publish SPD reusable workflow along with Content Type for SharePoint 2010

02/02/2014 Leave a comment

Content type Publishing will include workflow associations, but not the workflow themselves. It is by design , In SharePoint 2010, Content Type Publishing will include the workflow association, however the actual workflow is not published. To work around this behavior, workflows should be manually created or transferred to the site before the Content Type and workflow association are published.

When try to create a new site ( Publishing Site ) under your site collection Event log message was: ‘Failed to create the ‘Pages’ library.’.
Exception was: ‘Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException: User cannot be found.
at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPUserCollection.get_Item(String loginName)
at Microsoft.SharePoint.Workflow.SPWorkflowNoCodeSupport.LoadWorkflowBytesElevated(SPFile file, Int32 fileVer, Int32& userid, DateTime& lastModified)

the error caused by the user who created the latest revision of the workflow no longer exists in the site collection.

1) Download and install Sharepoint Designer 2010 if you already do not have it on your system.
