JBPM 5.1 Managing exception with "Error Event"

jbpm.user Nov 4, 2011 5:51 AM

Hello,

I've just start with JBPM and I'm facing some problem about exception handling.

I'm struggling to make a link between "Error Event" and "Exception Handler".

I find no good example in User Guide.

Do you know where I can find enough information about ?

(Sorry for my engligh)

I am just curious why nobody is answering this question. I have the same problem.
I'd like to react to an error event and send the error description to an external service.

Just to clear it up:
- I have set up a process var called "errorvar"
- I have an error event with property FaultVariable set to "errorvar"
- The surrounding process has an exception handler with property FaultVariable set to "errorvar" and the java code "System.out.println("error");"

Ending the process with the described error event does nothing.
Oh and btw. how can I even set a value to the FaultVariable in an error event (something like information about which work item didnt do what was expected).
