Hello Steve,

welcome to ruote's mailing list.

Could Dashboard#on_error help?

http://ruote.rubyforge.org/configuration.html#engine_on

It lets you trigger participant / workflows each time an error happens in
your ruote system. You could notify your admin there and then let him use
something like replay_at_error.


Best regards,

That works fine, thanks John. 

It looks like that I can even get the details of the error in workitem.fields["__error__"]
