jBPM 3.0.1 Installation & Example

[jdude]

Hi!

I try to familiarize myself with JBoss and jBPM.

I followed the basic instructions and installed JBoss 3.2.5, jBPM2 and all seems to work fine including the examples.

Next I got JBoss 4.0.2 but the jBPM2 examples don't work. Then I got jBPM 3.0.1 and noticed the configuration works a bit different.

Does anybody know how to configure jBPM 3.0.1 and run the websale example. Is there a Getting Started doc for 3.0?

Many thanks,
jD

If you haven't already, try downloading the starter's kit. The kit contains an already functional JBoss/JBPM setup that you can start up and play with. That should give you much of the example configuration that you're looking for.

Yes download the starterkit or use som common sense to see what ant tasks need to be run to use the source

tip: the default ant task already does a lot.

Got the web sale example working now.

Only minor bug on the entry page http://localhost:8080/jpbm.

The URLs for Home/Administration/Monitoring are not working.

http://localhost:8080/jbpm/home.jsp -> http://localhost:8080/jbpm/faces/home.jsp

http://localhost:8080/jbpm/admin.jsp -> http://localhost:8080/jbpm/faces/admin.jsp

http://localhost:8080/jbpm/monitor.jsp -> http://localhost:8080/jbpm/faces/monitor.jsp

Thanks a lot,

hmmm.. just checked out the latest 3.0 source and the admin page works, although it is empty. The monitor page normally works. Do you get errors in the logging?

[jdude]

Yes, there is a error message in the log, just a basic URL issue, can't find page.

if you start at http://localhost:8080/jbpm, then the buttons on the left don't have the right URL. If you start with http://localhost:8080/jbpm/faces/login.jsp, then everything works fine.

[kukeltje]

index.jsp should redirect you to the /faces/login.jsp you post. If you try to use /jbpm/monitor.jsp directly, you run into jsf issues which will be resolved later.

Cheers!

BTW The menu on the left side looks a bit odd in FireFox, it's correct in IE. Maybe put each button in extra cell will do.

Best,
jD

is already in the JIRA. One of the next versions will have a 'fix'.
