Starting Process Instance and Webapp

[nib]

Hi,
I start an process instance from a mdb via the following code:

private void kickOffProcess(String processname, String [] attrnames, java.io.Serializable[] attrvalues) {
 try {
 // Logging
 log.info("!!! MDB: KickOff "+processname);
 for (int i=0;i<attrnames.length;i++)
 log.info("!!! MDB: Parameter "+attrnames);

 log.info("!!! MDB: Initialisize jBPM");
 org.jbpm.JbpmConfiguration jbpmConfiguration = org.jbpm.JbpmConfiguration.parseXmlString(
 "<jbpm-configuration>" +

 // A jbpm-context mechanism separates the jbpm core
 // engine from the services that jbpm uses from
 // the environment.

 " <jbpm-context>" +
 " <service name='persistence' " +
 " factory='org.jbpm.persistence.db.DbPersistenceServiceFactory' />" +
 " </jbpm-context>" +

 // Also all the resource files that are used by jbpm are
 // referenced from the jbpm.cfg.xml

 " <string name='resource.hibernate.cfg.xml' " +
 " value='config/hibernate.cfg.xml' />" +
 "</jbpm-configuration>"
 );
 org.jbpm.JbpmContext jbpmcontext =jbpmConfiguration.createJbpmContext();


 log.info("!!! MDB: Create Instance");


 org.jbpm.graph.exe.ProcessInstance pi = jbpmcontext.newProcessInstance(processname);

 log.info("!!! MDB: Set Parameter");
 for (int i=0;i<attrnames.length;i++)
 pi.getContextInstance().setVariable(attrnames,attrvalues);
 log.info("!!! MDB: Signall");
 pi.signal();
 log.info("!!! MDB: Signal");
 jbpmcontext.close();

 } catch (Exception ex) {
 log.info("!!! ERROR MDB: Unknown Exception. Reason: "+ex);
 ex.printStackTrace();
 }


 }



 }

It starts the process and tasks are assigend to the user "ernie" (according to the log).

DEBUG [GraphElement] event 'task-create' on 'Task(Check Customer)' for 'Token(/customer)'
 DEBUG [TaskInstance] assigning task 'Check Customer' to 'ernie'

The task-code

 <swimlane name="Worker">
 <assignment expression="user(ernie)"></assignment>
 </swimlane>

[..]

<task-node name="Check Customer">
 <task swimlane="Worker">
 </task>
 <transition name="Check done" to="join1"></transition>
 </task-node>

The Problem is: In the Webapp (jBPM 3.2 alpha 2) it does not appear on ernies tasklist.
Don't know whats wrong.

[nib]

And by the way:
WARN [ProxyWarnLog] Narrowing proxy to class org.jbpm.graph.node.TaskNode - this operation breaks ==

What does that mean?

The line before that is
DEBUG [GraphElement] event 'node-enter' on 'TaskNode(Check Customer)' for 'Token(/Customer)'
2

[nib]

My code is mainly based on the websale example in the 3.2 alpha 2 suite. The exception is that I have some Node Nodes until the Task Node is executed (the node nodes do start). In the DB is a copy of the process instance.

[nib]

Does no one has an idea or any tips what I can try?
Can I improve the source for "kicking off" a process?
Thank you in advance.

Have you looked in the database, weather the task assignment is correct?

Have you tried , weather the tasklist form ernie is correct in the assignment handler?

[nib]

@assigment The console told me it assigned the task to ernie, but I can look in the db. Also this won't help me much, because I wouldn't know how to fix it ;-)

@tasklist form yes it should be correct because it is from the (working) websale example. Even if the form is wrong there should be a task in ernies list
