Why doesn't this argo workflow run?

Question

I am trying to configure my Argo workflows.

I know how to correct an error, but how do I debug if they do not run?

I am running Argo 3.0.10 on Ubuntu 20.04

argo: v3.0.10
  BuildDate: 2021-08-18T23:41:44Z
  GitCommit: 0177e73b962136200517b7f301cd98cfbed02a31
  GitTreeState: clean
  GitTag: v3.0.10
  GoVersion: go1.16.6
  Compiler: gc
  Platform: linux/amd64

I apply the below YAML using the following command

argo submit test.yaml --watch:

{
   "apiVersion": "argoproj.io/v1alpha1",

   "metadata": {
      "annotations": {
         "argo": "workflows"
      },
      "generateName": "hello-world-",
      "labels": {
         "workflows.argoproj.io/archive-strategy": "false"
      },
      "namespace": "argo"
   },
   "spec": {
      "entrypoint": "entrypoint",
      "parallelism": 3,
      "podGC": {
         "strategy": "OnWorkflowSuccess"
      },
      "securityContext": {

         "runAsGroup": 3000,
         "runAsNonRoot": true,
         "runAsUser": 1000
      },
      "serviceAccountName": "argouser",
      "templates": [
         {
            "container": {
               "args": [
                  "hello world"
               ],
               "command": [
                  "cowsay"
               ],
               "image": "docker/whalesay:latest",
               "resources": {
                  "limits": {
                     "cpu": "100m",
                     "memory": "32Mi"
                  }
               }
            },
            "name": "entrypoint"
         }
      ],
      "ttlStrategy": {
         "secondsAfterSuccess": 5
      }
   }
}

As far as I can tell, the pods are never created and there is no record of them, however, the workflow exists. Here is the output of kubectl describe for the workflow:

apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
kind: Workflow

      args:

      command:

      name: ""
      resources:
        limits:

          memory: 32Mi

    metadata: {}
    name: entrypoint
    outputs: {}
  ttlStrategy:
    secondsAfterSuccess: 5
status:
  finishedAt: null
  startedAt: null

and the "error" message is:

ServiceAccount:      argouser

Thanks to @Michael Crenshaw for the tips!

I looked at the workflow-controller-logs and the workflow did run successfully, but did not output any argo logs and the workflow is still listed as pending. I am still looking for the correct configuration, so I am not certain how these messages are inconsistent. If I find the answer, I will post it here.
