(btw, the websale demo can be deployed successfully from the command line, it fails only when i tried to modify it and redeploy from eclipse) many thanks, Jeff server log: 08:26:27,848 DEBUG [DbPersistenceService] committing hibernate transaction 08:26:27,849 DEBUG [DbPersistenceService] closing hibernate session 08:26:27,849 DEBUG [Services] closing service 'tx': org.jbpm.tx.TxService@721cbd 08:26:27,849 DEBUG [JobExecutorThread] obtained locks on following jobs: [] 08:26:27,849 DEBUG [JbpmContextInfo] creating jbpm context with service factories '[tx, message, scheduler, logging, persistence, authentication]' 08:26:27,849 DEBUG [JbpmContext] creating org.jbpm.JbpmContext@bcc74a 08:26:27,849 DEBUG [DbPersistenceServiceFactory] creating persistence service 08:26:27,849 DEBUG [DbPersistenceService] creating hibernate session 08:26:27,849 DEBUG [DbPersistenceService] beginning hibernate transaction 08:26:27,850 DEBUG [JbpmContext] closing JbpmContext 08:26:27,850 DEBUG [Services] closing service 'persistence': org.jbpm.persistence.db.DbPersistenceService@17a6ac 08:26:27,850 DEBUG [DbPersistenceService] committing hibernate transaction 08:26:27,850 DEBUG [DbPersistenceService] closing hibernate session 08:26:27,850 DEBUG [Services] closing service 'tx': org.jbpm.tx.TxService@bf81f2 08:26:32,850 DEBUG [JobExecutorThread] acquiring jobs for execution... 08:26:32,850 DEBUG [JbpmContextInfo] creating jbpm context with service factories '[tx, message, scheduler, logging, persistence, authentication]' 08:26:32,850 DEBUG [JbpmContext] creating org.jbpm.JbpmContext@ec5d34 08:26:32,850 DEBUG [DbPersistenceServiceFactory] creating persistence service 08:26:32,851 DEBUG [DbPersistenceService] creating hibernate session 08:26:32,851 DEBUG [DbPersistenceService] beginning hibernate transaction 08:26:32,851 DEBUG [JobExecutorThread] querying for acquirable job... 08:26:32,851 DEBUG [JobExecutorThread] no acquirable jobs in job table 08:26:32,851 DEBUG [JbpmContext] closing JbpmContext 08:26:32,851 DEBUG [Services] closing service 'persistence': org.jbpm.persistence.db.DbPersistenceService@48c066 08:26:32,852 DEBUG [DbPersistenceService] committing hibernate transaction 08:26:32,852 DEBUG [DbPersistenceService] closing hibernate session 08:26:32,852 DEBUG [Services] closing service 'tx': org.jbpm.tx.TxService@4f7e3a 08:26:32,852 DEBUG [JobExecutorThread] obtained locks on following jobs: [] 08:26:32,852 DEBUG [JbpmContextInfo] creating jbpm context with service factories '[tx, message, scheduler, logging, persistence, authentication]' 08:26:32,852 DEBUG [JbpmContext] creating org.jbpm.JbpmContext@e8192d 08:26:32,852 DEBUG [DbPersistenceServiceFactory] creating persistence service 08:26:32,852 DEBUG [DbPersistenceService] creating hibernate session 08:26:32,852 DEBUG [DbPersistenceService] beginning hibernate transaction 08:26:32,853 DEBUG [JbpmContext] closing JbpmContext View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4120313#...
