This is a well known problem but I thought I would put it down anyway. I was trying to troubleshoot a workflow at a client site which was set to automatically start on a change or when a new item is created. This part of the workflow always used to work. I made a small change and noticed the workflow no longer would start automatically.
After a bit of checking of the workflow to ensure I didn't break anything, I realised it was due to me logging in as the moss admin service account. Since SP1, automatic workflows no longer will run as one of these accounts. I logged in as a normal user, created an item and it ran successfully.
