User development, A new message was posted in the thread "JBPM 4.3 Why is taskService.addTaskComment() only allowed for completed tasks?": http://community.jboss.org/message/523396#523396 Author : Arjan Jonker Profile : http://community.jboss.org/people/ajonker Message: -------------------------------------------------------------- This is not what I was expecting. On an active task, I try the following on task completion:   taskService.addTaskComment(command.getTaskId(), command.getRemark()); taskService.completeTask(command.getTaskId(), command.getOutcome());   But I get a JBPMException:   24806 [btpool0-1] WARN root  - Nested in org.springframework.web.util.NestedServletException: Request processing failed; nested exception is org.jbpm.api.JbpmException: task 10 doesn't exist: org.jbpm.api.JbpmException: task 10 doesn't exist     at org.jbpm.pvm.internal.cmd.AddTaskCommentCmd.execute(AddTaskCommentCmd.java:51)     at org.jbpm.pvm.internal.cmd.AddTaskCommentCmd.execute(AddTaskCommentCmd.java:35)     at org.jbpm.pvm.internal.svc.DefaultCommandService.execute(DefaultCommandService.java:42)     Searching a little in the sources showed me that adding comments to tasks is only allowed on HistoryTasks:   org.jbpm.pvm.internal.cmd.AddTaskCommentCmd:     HistoryTaskImpl historyTask = dbSession.get(HistoryTaskImpl.class, taskDbid);     if (historyTask==null) {       throw new JbpmException("task "+taskDbid+" doesn't exist");     }   Why can't I add comments to running tasks? When the task is completed, adding comments seems a bit silly since it's already completed.   Kind regards,   Arjan -------------------------------------------------------------- To reply to this message visit the message page: http://community.jboss.org/message/523396#523396
