Even I am having list loop with parameters:( Loop will be executed as many times as the number of parameters provided.

Somewhat moot at this point as I still think you need to ask support, but it would have been nice to get all relevant details up front rather than this one at a time pulling teeth approach we're taking.

So, where do your parameter values come from? Since there is (apparently) nothing feeding the Start Loop, I'm guessing as a job parameter?

It works just fine in 8.0.1 hence can't say if it is related to any known bug in this version.

where is the warning - outer loop or inner loop?

Show us the precise properties of the StartLoop activities.

The start loop is having list loop with a parameter. That parameter is comma separated. So the parameter will look like p1,p2,p3. Output of the start loop is connected to a restartable sequence. The sequence has one job activity and a routine activity. The output of the sequence has 2 links, one to a terminator to abort the outer sequence on the inner sequence failure. The other link connects to the end loop on successful completion of the inner sequence ,and the inner sequence starts running for the next parameter

Please let me know if you need any more info on the properties..

Was the Terminator executed? (There will be an entry in the job log.)
