We're usualy using latest main subrelease ( e.g. 4.2 ) so last upgrade was made from 4.1. I believe that the workflows vanished even eralyer since the rollback to previous version didn't help. I'll test your solution and give feedback, thank you !

EDIT:
my properties file already contains the following:
File path:
C:\Alfresco4.2\tomcat\shared\classes
File content snippet:
### BPM Engine ###
system.workflow.engine.jbpm.enabled=true

Would that be enough ? Seems that's not the issue.

EDIT2:
Seems i have no workflow console in admin tools neither

I'm experiencing the same issue. I checked right after the upgrade in the workflow-console "show workflows all" and there is nothing. I checked the JBPM flag system.workflow.engine.jbpm.enabled=true is set also. I'm using Enterprise version 4.1.4. I've attempted to create/submit content into the workflow and it doesn't show up either. Did anyone get a resolution on this?
