I have a workflow and I'm trying to send an email when an item is added or updated from a calendar list. I tried using the Pause Until Date activity as I need to send the email 2 days before the due date but it just pauses and never fires. Any ideas why it isn't firing as expected?

I tried downloading the patch but it gave me an error. I have SP 2010, does that matter? – user6778 Feb 7 '12 at 19:13
@TimTang: This patch is for 2007 version. I am not sure if this is still a issue in 2010. – Vedran Rasol Feb 7 '12 at 19:40
