To view the discussion, visit: https://community.jboss.org/message/785183#785183 -------------------------------------------------------------- In my project i have used the JBPM5.3, mysql,tomcat, spring and hibernate, and the entityManagerFactory was made by spring . and when i started a process by using the StatefulKnowledgeSession's startProcess method, then these table (task;i18ntext;peopleassignments_bas;content;peopleassignments_exclowners;peopleassignments_recipients;peopleassignments_stakeholders; ) were persisted but the ProcessInstanceInfo table was empty .       then i started another task ,and it was be OK ! but when i restarted the web server , the column processInstanceId in task table was restart from one , because of this ,i think the table ProcessInstanceInfo has some problem .      in my opinion , i think when i start a task , then ProcessInstanceInfo is also must be persisted in the db ,because the ProcessInstanceInfo in the memory is not safe , it must be persisted in the db. there some code about my project , sorry for my english. -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [https://community.jboss.org/message/785183#785183] Start a new discussion in jBPM at Community [https://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
