[jboss-user] [jBPM] - Persisted timer event couldn't find work item handler after reload

tmag [https://community.jboss.org/people/tmag] created the discussion "Persisted timer event couldn't find work item handler after reload" To view the discussion, visit: https://community.jboss.org/message/760475#760475 -------------------------------------------------------------- We are planning to start using JBPM 5.3 in our organization, and started with the following simple process which has the deadline for this month end. Please help !! Its a simple timer task with 500ms delay & 30 sec period - which sends a reminder email every 30 sec . We need this process to be persistent to be able to restore anytime. For testing am using Postgres. 1) First am starting a process and after a couple of reminder emails sent out (say after 1 minute) stopping that process to simulate a failure scenerio. Then am reloading the session. 2) When I reload the session quickly within the period  (30 sec) - there are no exceptions & able to see timer event kicking off reminders as per schedule. Here is my code : *setupDataSource();    // postgres datasource* *        Environment env = getEnvironment();* *        KnowledgeBase kbase = createKnowledgeBase("IncidentProcess.bpmn");* *       StatefulKnowledgeSession ksession = JPAKnowledgeService.loadStatefulKnowledgeSession( <sessionId>, kbase, null, env );* *ksession.getWorkItemManager().registerWorkItemHandler("Email", new SystemOutWorkItemHandler());* 3)  *But when I wait more than 30 sec., say upto 5 minutes (in relatime - maintenance may take hours) & reload the session - getting the following exception about WorkItemHanlder which am registering as above. But seems its failing while loading session itself. Also its deleting entry from 'ProcessInstanceInfo' table.* Hibernate: select nextval ('WORKITEMINFO_ID_SEQ') Hibernate: select workitemin0_.workItemId as workItemId4_0_, workitemin0_.creationDate as creation2_4_0_, workitemin0_.name as name4_0_, workitemin0_.processInstanceId as processI4_4_0_, workitemin0_.state as state4_0_, workitemin0_.OPTLOCK as OPTLOCK4_0_, workitemin0_.workItemByteArray as workItem7_4_0_ from WorkItemInfo workitemin0_ where workitemin0_.workItemId=?
