Hi, Sorry, I missed that in your first post. I am curious (I'm a beginner) as to why a timer wouldn't work for you. Thanks, Fred View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3936882#3936882 Reply to the post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&o

gudake, I've been trying to play with this too. I think I need to have actions on plain rather than on tasks, because I want the external process to control the process flow. Isn't it true that in your experiment with async tasks, the process continued on regardless of what happened in the asy

Thanks for your response. But can we learn at what point we need to switch from internal messaging to JMS? What are the problems with internal messaging? How will we know when not to use it? Does it turn blue under load? Does the CPU burst into flames? Excess stomach acid? What is the status of

Thanks, that's helpful. I have been deploying with ant, but I'm happy to know about the upload mechanism. Would you consider posting your test processdefinition.xml? I keep getting validation errors with the eclipse plugin, and it's just as bad when I try writing them manually. I'm collecting e

Ok, now I'm lost. What is this "jbpm-web" application? Am I missing a tool? The only thing that I have is the plain "jbpm" war file from the starter kit that contains a demo of the "websale" process. Where is this "run process" button you're referring to? Or is this your code? Thanks, Fred V

My understanding is that the internal asynchronous messaging within jbpm is fairly limited, though it may be enough for my purposes. For example, if I needed to run a bunch of ftp jobs at once, I might need a pool of "ftp runner" objects. These would sit around waiting for messages to ftp files

Hi, I've been making good progress getting jbpm running on a production database and have written some test code, etc. But now I'm trying to understand how to get some real work done! Part 1: Let's say that one thing we have to accomplish in a process is: "ftp large file to remote site" Assu

Thanks for your reply. However, there is no sar file involved. This is a single ant task, deploying a single process definition. Within this single deployment I see the problem. At the beginning hibernate is talking to my database, but midway into the deployment, hibernate starts talking to hsq

Hi, This is related to my earlier post on problems with the jbpm-db project. I've just finished a quick test of deploying processes with ant. It's working fine, but only after I had the same problem I described earlier. Namely, when using hibernate.properties to override hibernate.cfg.xml, the

Hi, Thanks very much for a helpful document. However, I have run into some problems and I'd like to know if I'm the only one! First, a simple one: I could not start the jboss server with a simple double-click of run.bat. Instead, I needed to run it manually with arguments. Namely, "run.bat -c
