Exception thrown on secondary workflow

Question

Hi All,

I am running a workflow fired when a new list item is created, the workflow creates a new task item and sends an email. This works fine.

I have another workflow fired when a task item is modified, when I try and modify the task item and click complete an exception:

I have checked the recycle bin and the item asscociated with the workflow is not there, i have deleted all items for the recycle bin but still get the error... Any help would be appreciated!

Exception details:

Server Error in '/' Application.

The workflow's parent item associated with this task is currently in the recycle bin, which prevents the task from being completed.

I have the exact same problem and have been stumped for several hours now. First workflow creates item and sends email - works fine. I too had a secdonay workflow but have since disabled this to no avail. When I click 'complete task' I receive the error message by the previous poster.

Anybody out there able to help us?

Many thanks,

Gez
