Why does the jbpm-test-6.0.1-20140120.jar need to be referenced for the solution to work? 3. Because of question 2 giving me problems I googled some and found this Issue running sample project - jBPM 6.0.1 Final <https://community.jboss.org/message/856826>;, this comment in particular: Re: Issue running sample project - jBPM 6.0.1 Final <https://community.jboss.org/message/857244#857244> As per that post Re: Re: Issue running sample project - jBPM 6.0.1 Final <https://community.jboss.org/message/857380#857380>;, created the persistence.xml (attached) but the test code still didnt work. I copied the code and tried to run the code as follows in a main() with an EntityManager as recommended in the post (as attached Run.java) Then i get this Caused by: org.hibernate.service.jndi.JndiException: Unable to lookup JNDI name [jdbc/jbpm-ds] Most likely the persistence.xml in the test jar mentioned in (2), so i remove it from includes and rerun Exception on Run.java line 67 Exception in thread "main" javax.persistence.PersistenceException: No Persistence provider for EntityManager named org.jbpm.persistence.jpa Then i try to swap my boolean old to false to run the code with an EntityManager defined (Run.java line 40): Exception raised on EntityManager Exception in thread "main" javax.persistence.PersistenceException: [PersistenceUnit: org.jbpm.persistence.jpa.updated] Unable to build EntityManagerFactory at org.hibernate.ejb.Ejb3Configuration.buildEntityManagerFactory(Ejb3Configuration.java:930) at org.hibernate.ejb.Ejb3Configuration.buildEntityManagerFactory(Ejb3Configuration.java:904) at org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence.createEntityManagerFactory(HibernatePersistence.java:72) at javax.persistence.Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory(Persistence.java:63) at javax.persistence.Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory(Persistence.java:47) at com.sample.Run.main(Run.java:41) Caused by: org.hibernate.service.jndi.JndiException: Error parsing JNDI name [java:jboss/datasources/jbpmDS] at org.hibernate.service.jndi.internal.JndiServiceImpl.parseName(JndiServiceImpl.java:92) at org.hibernate.service.jndi.internal.JndiServiceImpl.locate(JndiServiceImpl.java:63) at org.hibernate.service.jdbc.connections.internal.DatasourceConnectionProviderImpl.configure(DatasourceConnectionProviderImpl.java:116) at org.hibernate.service.internal.StandardServiceRegistryImpl.configureService(StandardServiceRegistryImpl.java:75) at org.hibernate.service.internal.AbstractServiceRegistryImpl.initializeService(AbstractServiceRegistryImpl.java:159) at org.hibernate.service.internal.AbstractServiceRegistryImpl.getService(AbstractServiceRegistryImpl.java:131) at org.hibernate.engine.jdbc.internal.JdbcServicesImpl.buildJdbcConnectionAccess(JdbcServicesImpl.java:223) at org.hibernate.engine.jdbc.internal.JdbcServicesImpl.configure(JdbcServicesImpl.java:89) at org.hibernate.service.internal.StandardServiceRegistryImpl.configureService(StandardServiceRegistryImpl.java:75) at org.hibernate.service.internal.AbstractServiceRegistryImpl.initializeService(AbstractServiceRegistryImpl.java:159) at org.hibernate.service.internal.AbstractServiceRegistryImpl.getService(AbstractServiceRegistryImpl.java:131) at org.hibernate.cfg.SettingsFactory.buildSettings(SettingsFactory.java:78) at org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration.buildSettingsInternal(Configuration.java:2295) at org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration.buildSettings(Configuration.java:2291) at org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration.buildSessionFactory(Configuration.java:1760) at org.hibernate.ejb.EntityManagerFactoryImpl.<init>(EntityManagerFactoryImpl.java:94) at org.hibernate.ejb.Ejb3Configuration.buildEntityManagerFactory(Ejb3Configuration.java:920) ... 5 more Caused by: javax.naming.NoInitialContextException: Need to specify class name in environment or system property, or as an applet parameter, or in an application resource file: java.naming.factory.initial at javax.naming.spi.NamingManager.getInitialContext(NamingManager.java:662) at javax.naming.InitialContext.getDefaultInitCtx(InitialContext.java:307) at javax.naming.InitialContext.getURLOrDefaultInitCtx(InitialContext.java:344) at javax.naming.InitialContext.getNameParser(InitialContext.java:499) at org.hibernate.service.jndi.internal.JndiServiceImpl.parseName(JndiServiceImpl.java:86) So how do i get it to point to the data source defined in the demo ( <jta-data-source>java:jboss/datasources/jbpmDS</jta-data-source>)?
