I have this issue only when I update the drools or the process definition file (using guvnor) and restart the jboss AS (but not all the time). I'm working with jbpm 5.2 final and Jboss 5.1 and persisted ksession. Any solution or idea will be very helpful. Thank you. -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [https://community.jboss.org/message/734562#734562] Start a new discussion in jBPM at Community [https://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
