workflow is published but webhook is not publish

[lazy327676]

Bug Description

I have an n8n workflow. it trigger by webhook. We have a POST webhook. When we send data to webhook we get error saying:

[{"code":404,"message":"The requested webhook "POST 01dc7fa3-2b45-49ba-abbd-d0049642cc72/111365" is not registered.","hint":"The workflow must be active for a production URL to run successfully. You can activate the workflow using the toggle in the top-right of the editor. Note that unlike test URL calls, production URL calls aren't shown on the canvas (only in the executions list)"}]

but our workflow is already published. we had the same issue before, so we have to copy the workflow and delete the old workflow and resolve the issue.

we have created that workflow a month ago.

I have attached the image

To Reproduce

webhook request data sent

Expected behavior

get data with status 200 code

+1 ... we use the n8n CLI tool to keep our workflows synchronized. We import all of our workflows then publish them, all using the CLI tool, but the workflows (despite showing as published) don't actually publish the webhooks. We have to go in, drag a node around, then hit "Publish" again to "create a new version" before the webhook is actually published.

edit;

• This is self-hosted n8n; I tried all the current branches, all of them failed in the same way. Publishing appears to have happened on the UI but the only way to make it work is to "re-publish" from the WebUI after making a minor change of any kind

@lazy327676 so what's the fix? I don't really see it and issue is still opened

[lazy327676]

@RSkrypnik I meant I fix it for myself. This was the issue #26333
