Am I missing something here?  Thanks for the help!  My persistence.xml {code}                 jdbc/jbpm-ds           org.jbpm.task.Attachment          org.jbpm.task.BooleanExpression          org.jbpm.task.Comment          org.jbpm.task.Content          org.jbpm.task.Deadline          org.jbpm.task.Delegation          org.jbpm.task.EmailNotification          org.jbpm.task.EmailNotificationHeader          org.jbpm.task.Escalation          org.jbpm.task.Group          org.jbpm.task.I18NText          org.jbpm.task.Notification          org.jbpm.task.OnAllSubTasksEndParentEndStrategy          org.jbpm.task.OnParentAbortAllSubTasksEndStrategy          org.jbpm.task.PeopleAssignments          org.jbpm.task.Reassignment          org.jbpm.task.Status          org.jbpm.task.SubTasksStrategy          org.jbpm.task.Task          org.jbpm.task.TaskData          org.jbpm.task.User {code} -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [https://community.jboss.org/message/817868#817868] Start a new discussion in jBPM at Community [https://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
