failed to lazily initialize a collection of role: org.jbpm.taskmgmt.def.TaskController.variableAccesses ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBPM-400 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBPM-400 Project: JBoss jBPM Issue Type: Bug Components: Core Engine Affects Versions: jBPM 3.0.1 Environment: Windows XP Reporter: Derek Cornelius Assigned To: Tom Baeyens This exception occurs when JBPM tries to load an existing TaskController from the DB. The variableAccesses variable is accesed directly at line 62 in TaskController.java instead of the getter method. Thus Hibernate cannot return the lazily loaded collection for the current session. When the old collection is returned, the error occurs when it is accessed.
