    Problems with persistence factory in Hibernate

    danieltamiosso

      I am trying to save my process instance made with JBPM 3.2 on PostgresSQL but a error occurs:

          yes,

          The reason is: Caused by: org.hibernate.TransientObjectException: object references an unsaved transient instance -
          save the transient instance before flushing: org.jbpm.graph.def.Node


          But that is probably not what you wanted to hear. For us to give a better answer you have to post your code and the processdefinition

            Hi there Ronald,

            Hope you can give me a hint on this. I have the same problem as daniel. My stacktrace is lot bigger, but it contains also the part you are talking about (with the org.hibernate.TransientObjectException). What am I doing is trying to create at runtime a ProcessDefinition and persist it. Here is the part that does this:

            JbpmConfiguration jbpmConfig = null;
             JbpmContext jbpmContext = null;
             try {
             jbpmConfig = JbpmConfiguration.getInstance();
             jbpmContext = jbpmConfig.createJbpmContext();
             System.out.println(jbpmContext==null);
             ProcessDefinition pd = ProcessDefinition.parseXmlString(
             "<process-definition name=\"pd-name\">" +
             " <start-state>" +
             " <transition to='s' />" +
             " </start-state>" +
             " <state name='s'>" +
             " <transition to='end' />" +
             " </state>" +
             " <end-state name='end' />" +
             "</process-definition>");
             ProcessInstance processInstance = new ProcessInstance(pd);
             jbpmContext.save(processInstance);
            // jbpmContext.deployProcessDefinition(pd);
            // jbpmContext.deployProcessDefinition(pd);
             }
             catch(Exception e) {
             e.printStackTrace(pw);
             }
             finally {
             if (jbpmContext!=null) {
             jbpmContext.close();
             }
             }


            The two commented lines of code where my first approach on this matter but they had the same outcome. (this is only as a test and the ProcessDefinition creation was taken from chapter 3 of the online jbpm tutorial)

            If you need any further info on this to make it clearer for you please tell me so. I really need to make this work (it's for my BSc project and the deadline is closing in on me:D). Thanks a lot for your time and hope to hear from you.

              Please have a look at the unit tests. This is such a basic example that I'd suggest to run those first, configured to use your database. If those run, try finding the ones that correspond to your case. If they do not run, please let us know

                Many many thanks Ronald,

                It appears that the stack trace was not only for the persistence of the ProcessDefinition. I've set Hibernate to output the queries and it was persisting the jbpm classes correctly. The problem was that after that step I was using the hibernate session to do some other tasks. And since one of those tasks was failing it threw some errors and hibernate was rolling back the jbpm classes. I've removed the piece of code with the hibernate session and now the jbpm classes are in the db. I only need now to find out why that piece of code is not working because I need it to work.

                Even though you haven't provided me with an exact solution you helped me find one, and this is as good as a solution. Thanks a lot Ronald! I wish you best.

                    Thank you also, I am now trying to integrate the jBPM with Spring. Any hint will be welcome, thank you!

                      the jbpm-spring integration is written by the spring guys. You stand a better chance asking there.
