    Is this happening for any workflow you try to create (if it's the first one you're working on) just try to setup very fast another workflow and see if you get the same error. Do you know if you have any custom code written on this particular wf you're getting the error?

    Working with the WF requires a full compile and full CIL generation performed. Can you please perform these two tasks and retry then to work on your wf (save it).

    What exactly were you trying to do? Are you in the workflow editor and try to save a newly created WF, or changed an existing one, etc?
