Process-States

[jgreiner]

If I deploy the process definition below without deploying the sub-process definitions. The process will execute up until it tries to call a sub-process then it will throw an exception as expected.

However if I have the process definitions deployed properly (deploy subprocesses before main process) the process will stay in the Starting Gate node. I get no logging information, or any of my debug statements in the ActionHandler for the starting gate.

Does anyone have any idea, or a good push in the right direction? I am really at a loss.
