<div class="jive-rendered-content"><p>I am trying to build a workflow with a compensation event using the 5.2.0.Final build, i.e. something like this:</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p><a class="jive-link-external-small" href="https://github.com/droolsjbpm/jbpm/blob/5.2.x/jbpm-bpmn2/src/test/resources/BPMN2-IntermediateThrowEventCompensate.bpmn2">https://github.com/droolsjbpm/jbpm/blob/5.2.x/jbpm-bpmn2/src/test/resources/BPMN2-IntermediateThrowEventCompensate.bpmn2</a></p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>Basically, </p><p>+ Compensating signal event node is attached to some action node.</p><p>+ When a 'compensation' signal is raised (maybe as part of the action node's processing itself or somewhere down the path), this event is triggered and starts execution of the compensation logic</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>However with the 5.2.0.Final build, the compensation signal event is not getting triggered. To rule out any issue with my setup, I unpacked the jbpm 5.2.0.final source, built and ran the test testCompensateIntermediateThrowEventProcess() in jbpm-bpmn2 (which is the closest to what I want). Even in this test the compensation event node is not getting triggered (test shows a false positive).  Then I tried 5.3.0-SNAPSHOT and this scenario works just fine. </p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>Compensations are a fairly key scenario for any workflow system and it is odd to have this not working in a .Final release :\</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>For now my question to someone familiar with this issue is that is there a workaround? Can I tweak something here and there in the workflow or my code to get compensation to work?</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>Thanks!</p></div>
