hello-sample: no processdefinition.xml inside process archiv

[timeagentess]

Hello all,

I am trying to run the hello sample from jbpm-bpel-1.1.Beta3. Working on JBoss 4.0.5 with the default server, I have deployed the jbpm-bpel.sar as described in the user guide.

Then I have performed ant pack-definition and deploy-definition for the hello example successfully. However, on running the generate-service target I am getting this error:

c:\jbpm-bpel-1.1.Beta3\examples\hello>ant generate-service
Buildfile: build.xml

pack-definition:

generate-service:
[servicegen] 27.11.2007 10:52:12 org.jbpm.JbpmConfiguration getInstance
[servicegen] INFO: using jbpm configuration resource 'jbpm.cfg.xml'

BUILD FAILED
c:\jbpm-bpel-1.1.Beta3\examples\common\bpel-build.xml:76: org.jbpm.jpdl.JpdlException: [[ERROR] no processdefinition.xml inside process archive]

Is the processdefinition.xml something that I must create?

I see other people have had this problem before, however I couldn't get much out of those posts:

Any idea as to what I might be doing wrong? Thank you!

I got a couple of ideas:
Did you replace the default implementation of the XML APIs? This is described in section 4.4 of the user guide for version 1.1.Beta3.
Have you tried jBPM BPEL 1.1.GA? Note that the GA version no longer requires you to replace the default implementation of the XML APIs (this is done for you by the provided Ant scripts)

The jBPM BPEL 1.1.GA works fine, thank you very much for your help!
