Publishing Template(Export and Import) Problem

This is a problem i have been having..
scenario:
i created a site using the publishing site with workflow as the site template. We then exported this site using stsadm.exe(export function) and then importing (stsadm.exe). The problem starts now as the publishing workflow that should be there by default is doing some rather strange things.
first of all if you edit a page and then "Submit for Approval", you don't get the start approval screen.
look below at the picture.








so the solution that worked for me was to recreate the workflow on the "Pages" document library using a new "Task" list and a new "Workflow History" list and when you submit a page for approval you should get the "Start Approval" screen.PROBLEM SOLVED!!!!!!!!
