Deploying Par File from eclipse 3.1

[chprvkmr]

HI,

Iam using eclipse 3.1, when I tried to deploy par file below exception is encountered.

java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetexception

Also Iam not able to use Lomboz plugin with eclipse 3.1. Any suggestions.

Thanks in advance.

is there more info in the eclipse logging? it is in the .meta directory in the workspace.

Could be that you try to deploy to a non-local server or a local server not running on port 8080

Oh, it is my error.
So you do this step:
Right click in "exam.par" ->Refresh.
It will work OK.
e sure you started your server.

Hi!
I am getting the similar error now. But there is no more exception trace in .log file.
Whenever I right click on the Myprocess.par and select deploy process archiver I get the error saying

An unexpected exception caused the deployment to fail
java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetexception

As there is no error in stack trace I am not able to figure out reson behind this.

Appreciate your help!

First,you should run the jbpm server.
And then,you will succeed.

Hi!
Thanks!
I am running my jbpm server. I deployed few of simple workflows before this. But In this case I tried to complicate a bit (Not much). I am trying to implement something like websale example but much simpler than that with only two steps.

[kukeltje]

is there an error in the logging of the jbpm server?

[forjbpm]

nah! :-(
No trace in jbpmserver or even .log file.

[kukeltje]

Is there some logging in the eclipse logfile (see the second post in this thread)

[forjbpm]

Nope!
There is only one log file in workspace i.e in $MY_WORKSPACE/.metadata/.log file
There is nothing in that log file.

My localhost is running on port 8080 only.

Is there any other log file??
in jbpm-server directory I see only one *boot.log* under jbpm/log

Thanks!

Okay... I know we still have to work on the deployment in the designer. In fact this is one of the tasks that I think myself that should have high priority.
The problem is without doubt that the deployer does not find one or more class files of the action/assignment handler classes used in your processdefinition.xml file. Make sure these classes are on the build path of your eclipse project.

Hi
I could deploy my process archive finally.
I just followed steps given in one of the forum thread. I got following message as well!

12:41:24,767 DEBUG [DeployServlet] deploying archive file:///JBPM_HOME/build/ECSDemo4.par

But now when I log in and click on my process to Start New Process Execution
I get following error

Is it okay if I continue in this thread or should I start new one??

[kukeltje]

it's usually better if you start a new thread for a new issue. I can give you a small answer though. This error usually happens when the image of the process contains all nodes on top of eachother in the top left corner. If you correct this in the GPD this error disappears (at least it did for me)

[forjbpm]

to avoid confusion I have started a new thread for this new problem

http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=73695

I will take care of all these things next time onwards.
Thanks!
