Oh, I should have stated some of the discrepancies found between the table created following the sourceforge migration notes and the table created by Hibernate. 1. The duedate_ is created as a timestamp column in the "sourceforge" database while it is a datetime column in the "hibernate" table. 2. The sourceforge database does not include the appropriate foreign keys from the jbpm_job table. 3. All of the records migrated from the jbpm_timer table to the jbpm_job table result in a retries_ value of 0 (which renders the unacquirable).
