Issue

  • Kaleo Task does not execute a timer with a Groovy type action.
  • After setting a notification in a Workflow Task Timer, the message is not printed in the log.
  • Timer notification is not sent when the timer reaches the given duration
  • The action expected to trigger after a set duration is not functioning as expected.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Start a vanilla 2023.Q4 bundle.
  2. Navigate to Configuration > Workflow > Web Content.
  3. Select Single Approver Workflow.
  4. Edit the workflow to:
    1. Assignments: Role Type: Admin
    2. Notification: add a notification, with type regular role.
    3. Timer: Set a timer to print out a message to the logs.

Expected results: After submitting a web content for review, view the logs to see the message print out.

Actual results: The printout is not in the logs after the due date passes.
