Thank you Demian, your pointers gave me additional things to look into and change.
All: I believe I am closer than before, but still need help resuming the "Human Task Services" after a restart. Here's what I have done:
- For the 'Evaluation' flow in the JBPM5.1 DEMO setup
- In the directory: jbpm-installer/db/, I updated the hibernate-cfg.xml, persistence.xml and testDS1.xml to make everything point to my Oracle DB. Also updated the hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto property to 'update' instead of 'create'
- Ran ant install.demo
- Ran the demo, everything runs fine. When I recycle the server, and go back to console, I see previous instances of 'evaluation' that do show up in appropriate status
- I recycle the server while my 'evaluation' instance is pending on completion of human activities. Once I recycle the server, I correctly see that those processes are pending on completiong of human task services, HOWEVER, when I login as john, mary, or krisv, I no longer see the human tasks in the task view as I was able to before the recycle. I expect to be able to see them becuase I haven't completed the tasks yet and was expecting the console to present them again after the recycle.
So now my question comes down to this: How to make the human tasks show up in the task section of console again after a recycle? And do the processes require any manual intervention to make them 'active' after a recycle?
Thanks
