Scheduler does not finish a workflow, which can be done in Designer

Question

Hello everyone,

I have a workflow, which is set by Scheduler Automation (not Server) to run everyday. Usually the workflow finishes after 3 min.

Today is the second time it happended, that the workflow can not be finished. The workflow has 2 parts, first part was finished by writing an output file.

The second part is still running after 6 hours. 
View Schedules showed however, that the workflow is not started at all (0% - picture below)

I have just run the workflow manually several times with Alteryx Designer, and the workflow is finished after 3 min everytime.
Is this a bug with Scheduler or an Error with my workflow?

Best regards,

Pham

I'm having the same issue. I have a workflow that runs a cmd script. It works just fine in Designer, but the last couple of days it has remained running in Scheduler until I have to manually delete it from the queue.

Did you happen to find a solution?

Sorry for my belated answer.

The workflow runs through a local copy on scheduler, and it was still remaining in the running state after 24 hours.

Hi @NPham00 ,

That is interesting.

Are you running the workflow in the scheduler from its actual location or through a local copy on the scheduler?.

Also in the bug you are referencing  did the workflow run through or did it remain in the running state?

Best,
