Hello,

unfortunately, the worklow console is gone in Alfresco 5.0.b due to the removal of Explorer. See <a href="https://issues.alfresco.com/jira/browse/ALF-21133">ALF-21133</a> for details.

Regards
Axel

Did they remove Explorer portal from 5.0b, and why?
Cause All books are talking about Explorer, they shouldn't do that.
I believe that Explorer is good for beginner's who they are willing to learn alfresco.

Explorer was removed in 5.0.b, along with the AVM and other deprecated functionality. The Workflow console was accidentally removed as part of that work. I update the release notes to reflect these changes, and put together a blog post to clarify what happened:

The workflow console should be restored in 5.1. Until then, you can define the workflow in the Spring bean configuration. There is also a community effort to add that functionality to the Alfresco Shell Tools:

Good luck.

Hi,
take a look to this interesting article by Jeff Potts about features removed from Alfresco 5.
