Configuring JBoss to run jBpm

[Eugene Abarquez]

Hello to any JBoss experts in the house,

I want to know how to configure my older version of JBoss to run jBpm, specifically jboss-4.0.3. I was able to run the sample web application that comes bundled with the starters kit, but that was using the jboss server in the starters kit. I want to know how I can do the same thing using my jboss-4.0.3 server. Is that possible at all? I tried to deploy the sample web application WAR file in my jboss-4.0.3 server, but it is giving me some wierd errors. Please advise. Thanks.

Any ideas?

I havent used JBoss jBpm. The starters kit that i downloaded contains a jbpm.war and a jbpm.sar (and maybe something more). So when you say:

I tried to deploy the sample web application WAR file in my jboss-4.0.3 server

Did you even copy the sar? I dont know whether that's required, but you could give it a try. Also what's the exception that you are seeing? I would expect it to run on any other instance of JBoss as long as you make sure you have deployed all the required archives.

Hi Jaikiran,

Thanks for the reply. This worked for me. I added the jbpm.sar folder together with the jbpm-ds.xml and jbpm.war files in the deploy folder of jboss-4.0.3. The jbpm sample web application page is now showing, but it throws an exception when you navigate to a page with the process definition graph image with it, i.e. the task.jsp page. It might be an issue with the version of the jar files used. Anyway, I will have to look more into it. But thanks a lot though for the help.

Cheers!
