Grid, As I stated below, I am using the SOA Tools BPMN Editor. >>> Now I have installed: >>> >>> eclipse-jee-ganymede-SR1-linux-gtk >>> JBossTools-3.0.0.CR1-N200812050815-ALL-linux-gtk >>> and the SOA Tools BPMN Modeler from stp.archivedsite-2.0.0.M3.zip >>> It is true that my models were generated from PI4SOA CDL models. However I created a very simple model directly in SOA Tools BPMN Modeler and I experience the same issue when trying to convert it to JPDL (attached those files). Also, not sure what you mean by "sequenceflow". I don't see sequenceflow in any .bpmn or .bpmn_diagram.

I think your bpmn files are not from STP BPMN EDITOR? STP bpmn editor bpmn file: *.bpmn, it's sequenceflow has a attribute: source. The source is the sequenceflow's source node. But your bpmn files has not this attribute. So this issue occurs. John, We need to support these files from other editor? If yes, I need to do some works for it. If not, I have a workaround: Open the bpmn file using stp bpmn editor, do some changes (not real changes, only aim to call stp editor's save method) Then save the file. At this time, the stp editor add the source attribute to the sequenceflow automatically, you may use the bpmn export correctly Grid >> I tried again with another BPMN model that had multiple pools.

In particular doing soa development work I have no interest in or use for seam, rich faces, jbossas tooling. So until there is a version of JBoss Tools targeted at the SOA developer, I would prefer to add the plugins I require. Grid mentioned a common zip, but the one he passed me was old. I don't see a tools common zip on the download page.
