As stated in an earlier
blog my team was tasked with creating a SharePoint staging environment that mirrored production. Part of the SharePoint site included Nintex workflows. This did not go as smoothly as I had thought, either. Even though central admin indicated that the connection to the database had been established, whenever I tried to view my existing workflows in the SharePoint site I would see the following message:
Failed to open a connection to the Nintex Workflow configuration database.
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Cannot open database "" requested by the login. The login failed. Login failed for user ''.I stumbled upon this
thread on the Nintex site which pointed me to the resolution. The appPool user account needed: 1) permissions to the Nintex database; 2) to be added to the role WSS_Content_Application_Pools

there is also good SharePoint workflow migration tool (for native sharepoint workflows): http://www.harepoint.com/Products/HarePointWorkflowMigration/Default.aspx -- allows to copy sharepoint workflows between sites.
