Hi Everybody

Today I am going to talk about a problem I faced when I tried to create workflow on Announcement List using SharePoint designer 2013 as shown in the below screen

So I went to check the Workflow Applit page no-wrapper" id="fragment-6615">

Therefore, I discovered that I need to configure Workflow manager, to achieve that I should download Workflow manager components

http://www.microsoft.com/en-my/download/details.aspx?id=35375

after I downloaded all componements, I started file WorkflowManager.exe

After I finished configuring Workflow Manager, I noticed that Workflow Client was installed as well.

I chose 'Configure Workflow Manager with Custom Settings' when the Workflow Manager Configuration Wizard launched.

I chose this option to name my databases instead of using default ones the wizard creates during the configuration.

After finish installation, you will find that there is new website added on IIS

Then Launched SharePoint 2013 Management Shell (I used Windows PowerShell, too), run as Administrator.

Then run one of the following commands :

USING HTTPS :

Register-SPWorkflowService –SPSite "https://sp2013/" –WorkflowHostUri "https://SP2013.senux.com:12290"

USING HTTP : 

Register-SPWorkflowService –SPSite "http://sp2013/" –WorkflowHostUri "http://SP2013.senux.com:12291" –AllowOAuthHttp

 

Then I checked Workflow Service Application again.

 

 

 

Then Checked my SharePoint Designer, and there it is, SharePoint 2013 Workflow.
