You probably removed some of the properties in the template that are used by the email action in the workflow. Which would suggest that the "ignore_failure" parameter of the action is set to true. Compare the two files and see if you did not change some of the properties the email action depends on. But that is a very vague error, unless if you changed the workflow itself too.

It looks like upon deleting the wf-email.html.ftl file, and uploading a new one, the noderef changes. This breaks some hard-coded links inside alfresco. Any body have an idea on how to get the Workflows to use the email template with a new noderef?

Hi Raghav,

Try this option:
1. Rename the folder Repository> Data Dictionary> Email Templates> Workflow Notification to Workflow Notification1 (something to a different name)
2. Stop the alfresco instance
3. Create a file my-patch-services-context.xml under tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension
4. This patch would try to create the folder - Repository> Data Dictionary> Email Templates> Workflow Notification and all files under it.
5. Restart the alfresco instance and look into the logs for something similar as -
