I also get this error when creating a bpmn process in eclipse (galileo) and trying to open/view it in guvnor, having it committed first.
I'm using jboss-5.1.0.GA and drools version 5.1 . The application server is running on port 8080 (default configuration). I'm not using any rdbms only what comes bundled (h2 embedded db ) with drools. For oryx designer i'm using designer.war Revision 35836: /labs/jbossrules/contrib/designer as downloaded from url, http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/labs/labs/jbossrules/contrib/designer/ as specified in, http://blog.athico.com/2010/09/bpmn2-authoring-in-drools-guvnor.html The only way I have managed to view and edit a bpmn model inside guvnor by using the oryx designer and also being able to open for view and editing in eclipse with commits and updates back and forth with guvnor and everything to work fine is by, 1. creating a model from scratch in oryx designer ( http://localhost:8080/designer/editor ), preferably just a start and end point and maybe also a single task between them (start and end only works fine). 2. download the model from the option of oryx designer "Download BPMN 2.0 DI XML" 3. import in eclipse from filesystem 4. add/change stuff and add to guvnor Afterwards everything works fine whether edited and committed from guvnor and viewed in eclipse or edited and committed from eclipse and viewed in guvnor. By comparing the bpmn xml files created from oryx and from eclipse there seem to be differences that actually cause this error, since they stop occurring if using the same syntax. I'm still trying to find which different part actually casuses this, when i find it i will post it. Sorry for the long text, any help will be greatly appreciated!! Thank you. p.s. just to make things more annoying I would like to mention that when adding from eclipse to a bpmn model that "works" a Rule Task element and then close the bpmn model tab in eclipse and reopen it a strange error appears, which occurs because of a strange prefix 'g' character inserted in the xml of the bpmn. If it is removed from the xml everything works fine.... I suppose everything has to do with the different xml schemas, namespaces and tags used in the xml bpmn.. . . -- View this message in context: http://drools-java-rules-engine.46999.n3.nabble.com/process-designer-deserialization-error-tp1833481p1834428.html Sent from the Drools - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ rules-users mailing list rules-users@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/rules-users
