Ryan Peterson [http://community.jboss.org/people/rrpeterson] created the discussion "Loading processInstance/session via JPA, workItem executes before able to register workItems" To view the discussion, visit: http://community.jboss.org/message/627859#627859 -------------------------------------------------------------- Hey guys, I've got a process that I run the 1st half until it hits a timer, at which time I persist the process instances to the DB.  This portion works fine. When retrieving the sessions, I find (based on stack exceptions & debugging) JBPM calls JPAWorkItemManager.internalExecuteWorkItem before I can register my workItemHandlers.  Right now I'm calling JPAKnowledgeService.loadStatefulKnowledgeSession, and immediately after calling ksession.getWorkItemManager().registerWorkItemHandler, but it seems like some kind of race condition occurs and the engine wants to execute immediately upon loading from the database. Has anyone else run into this problem before? org.drools.RuntimeDroolsException: Unexpected exception executing action org.jbpm.process.instance.event.DefaultSignalManager$SignalProcessInstanceAction@4b04cf88 at org.drools.common.AbstractWorkingMemory.executeQueuedActions(AbstractWorkingMemory.java:996) at org.drools.impl.StatefulKnowledgeSessionImpl.executeQueuedActions(StatefulKnowledgeSessionImpl.java:845) at org.jbpm.process.instance.event.DefaultSignalManager.signalEvent(DefaultSignalManager.java:89) at org.jbpm.process.instance.timer.TimerManager$ProcessJob.execute(TimerManager.java:164) at org.drools.time.impl.JDKTimerService$JDKCallableJob.call(JDKTimerService.java:151) at org.drools.persistence.jpa.JpaJDKTimerService$JpaJDKCallableJob.internalCall(JpaJDKTimerService.java:80) at org.drools.persistence.jpa.JpaJDKTimerService$JpaJDKCallableJob.access$100(JpaJDKTimerService.java:63) at org.drools.persistence.jpa.JpaJDKTimerService$JDKCallableJobCommand.execute(JpaJDKTimerService.java:96) at org.drools.persistence.jpa.JpaJDKTimerService$JDKCallableJobCommand.execute(JpaJDKTimerService.java:84) at org.drools.persistence.SingleSessionCommandService.execute(SingleSessionCommandService.java:292) at org.drools.persistence.jpa.JpaJDKTimerService$JpaJDKCallableJob.call(JpaJDKTimerService.java:75) at org.drools.persistence.jpa.JpaJDKTimerService$JpaJDKCallableJob.call(JpaJDKTimerService.java:63) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask$Sync.innerRun(FutureTask.java:303) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(FutureTask.java:138) at java.util.concurrent.ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor$ScheduledFutureTask.access$301(ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.java:98) at java.util.concurrent.ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor$ScheduledFutureTask.run(ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.java:206) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.runTask(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:886) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:908) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:662) Caused by: org.drools.WorkItemHandlerNotFoundException: Could not find work item handler for SendEmail at org.drools.persistence.jpa.processinstance.JPAWorkItemManager.throwWorkItemNotFoundException(JPAWorkItemManager.java:60) at org.drools.persistence.jpa.processinstance.JPAWorkItemManager.internalExecuteWorkItem(JPAWorkItemManager.java:55) at org.jbpm.workflow.instance.node.WorkItemNodeInstance.internalTrigger(WorkItemNodeInstance.java:105) at org.jbpm.workflow.instance.impl.NodeInstanceImpl.trigger(NodeInstanceImpl.java:122) at org.jbpm.workflow.instance.impl.NodeInstanceImpl.triggerConnection(NodeInstanceImpl.java:185) at org.jbpm.workflow.instance.impl.NodeInstanceImpl.triggerCompleted(NodeInstanceImpl.java:150) at org.jbpm.workflow.instance.impl.ExtendedNodeInstanceImpl.triggerCompleted(ExtendedNodeInstanceImpl.java:47) at org.jbpm.workflow.instance.node.StateBasedNodeInstance.triggerCompleted(StateBasedNodeInstance.java:162) at org.jbpm.workflow.instance.node.TimerNodeInstance.triggerCompleted(TimerNodeInstance.java:135) at org.jbpm.workflow.instance.node.TimerNodeInstance.signalEvent(TimerNodeInstance.java:125) at org.jbpm.workflow.instance.impl.WorkflowProcessInstanceImpl.signalEvent(WorkflowProcessInstanceImpl.java:333) at org.jbpm.process.instance.event.DefaultSignalManager$SignalProcessInstanceAction.execute(DefaultSignalManager.java:117) at org.drools.common.AbstractWorkingMemory.executeQueuedActions(AbstractWorkingMemory.java:994) ... 18 more -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/627859#627859] Start a new discussion in jBPM at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
