Hi,

M trying to integrate jBPM with Spring 3.0.3 but facing NullPointerException at ProcessEngineImpl.checkDb(ProcessEngineImpl.java:152).

configuration files are attached.

The error originated at following line in ProcessEngineImpl which returns null.

userCommandService = (CommandService) processEngineWireContext.get(CommandService.NAME_TX_REQUIRED_COMMAND_SERVICE);

Please help.

Thanks
