I followd your advice and removed Java 7, installed the latest Java 6 and rebuild the JBPM Full 5.3 from scratch, now I see no errors in the boot.log, But the deployments fail to start, could you please take a look to the enclosed files? I have seen no issue when building, but all deployments are kep in "indeplying" staus, for more than 30 minuts, and then I do "ant stop.demo" amm all deployments go to "failed".
