I am trying to import workflows from one environment to another.
We have a production environment that is near UAT completion. We have created a development environment with the same SharePoint and Nintex versions. We restored the dev site from a copy of the production content database so we can move forward with a process of making changes in dev and promoting them to production via workflow import/export.
When I import a workflow from the production environment into the dev environment to update some changes today, the workflow is empty as if it did not import. I checked the workflow constants in CA and the UDAs to make sure they environments were the same. As ar as I know everything is the same. Going from prod to dev is not the intended process but as a start I need to sync the environments with the latest changes.
In addition, I have also noticed that the workflows on the dev environment do not open any of the task forms. When I click the ribbon button to edit the task form, the form is never painted on the screen. It doesn't open and there is no indication why.
Here is the stack trace I think is written to the log when I try to open the task form:

Any help would be much appreciated as I am at a loss at this point.
