What is this discussion about in one brief sentence? “Workflow returns status code 404 error when trying to activate automatic execution mode”

Detalhamento para o post:

I have a complex workflow with RSS feeds as triggers that processes content, manipulates images, and publishes to WordPress. While the workflow executes successfully in manual mode, when I try to activate it for automatic execution, I receive a “Status code 404” error message.

Key points:

  • The workflow runs perfectly in manual mode
  • Error occurs only when trying to enable automatic execution
  • Using RSS feeds as triggers
  • Running n8n on a server environment
  • Error message: “Workflow could not be activated: Status code 404”

Has anyone encountered this issue or can suggest possible solutions?

It looks like your topic is missing some important information. Could you provide the following if applicable.

  • n8n version:
  • Database (default: SQLite):
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app):
  • Operating system:

Tip for sharing information

Pasting your n8n workflow

Ensure to copy your n8n workflow and paste it in the code block, that is in between the pairs of triple backticks, which also could be achieved by clicking </> (preformatted text) in the editor and pasting in your workflow.

```
<your workflow>
```

That implies to any JSON output you would like to share with us.

Make sure that you have removed any sensitive information from your workflow and include dummy or pinned data with it!

Make sure you have saved the workflow before attempting to activate it. Once saved you also could try hard refreshing the page in case some issue with the UI cache.
