Thank you for your help but it does not work :( i createt a context deployed the process definition. then i started another main class which created e new context and tried to get all process definitions. but none were found. How can i ensure that the server us used which is running ? i have the feeling its every time just a temporaily created jbpm server which stops when my main class ends.
