Hi, I want to develop a struts application using JBPM workflow engine.I tried to implement login functionality from struts Action class. I want to check the existence of username and password given by user in database. I passed jbpm.cfg.xml as string. Its giving message as "hibernate.properties" not found. I gave the datasource name in hibernate.cfg.xml. but its not detecting and connection to database. Please correct me if i am wrong somewhere and direct me on the correct path. Thanks in Advance. Here is my code: static JbpmConfiguration jbpmConfiguration = null; static { jbpmConfiguration = JbpmConfiguration.parseXmlString( "<jbpm-configuration>" + // A jbpm-context mechanism separates the jbpm core // engine from the services that jbpm uses from // the environment. " <jbpm-context>" + " <service name='persistence' " + " factory='org.jbpm.persistence.db.DbPersistenceServiceFactory' />" + " </jbpm-context>" + // Also all the resource files that are used by jbpm are // referenced from the jbpm.cfg.xml " <string name='resource.hibernate.cfg.xml' " + " value='hibernate.cfg.xml' />" + " <string name='resource.business.calendar' " + " value='org/jbpm/calendar/jbpm.business.calendar.properties' />" + " <string name='resource.default.modules' " + " value='org/jbpm/graph/def/jbpm.default.modules.properties' />" + " <string name='resource.converter' " + " value='org/jbpm/db/hibernate/jbpm.converter.properties' />" + " <string name='resource.action.types' " + " value='org/jbpm/graph/action/action.types.xml' />" + " <string name='resource.node.types' " + " value='org/jbpm/graph/node/node.types.xml' />" + " <string name='resource.varmapping' " + " value='org/jbpm/context/exe/jbpm.varmapping.xml' />" + "</jbpm-configuration>" ); } JbpmContext jbpmContext = jbpmConfiguration.createJbpmContext(); IdentitySession iSession = new IdentitySession(jbpmContext.getSession()); final Object id = iSession.verify(username, password); if (id == null) { System.out.println(".............Invalid user name or password..............."); return mapping.findForward("invalidUser"); } else if(id != null) { System.out.println(".............User is valid..............."); return mapping.findForward("validUser"); } Stacktrace: INFO [STDOUT] 14:08:02,890 INFO [Environment] Hibernate 3.2.3 14:08:02,890 INFO [STDOUT] 14:08:02,890 INFO [Environment] hibernate.propertie s not found 14:08:02,906 INFO [STDOUT] 14:08:02,906 INFO [Environment] Bytecode provider n ame : javassist 14:08:02,921 INFO [STDOUT] 14:08:02,921 INFO [Environment] using JDK 1.4 java. sql.Timestamp handling 14:08:03,281 INFO [STDOUT] 14:08:03,281 INFO [Configuration] configuring from resource: hibernate.cfg.xml 14:08:03,281 INFO [STDOUT] 14:08:03,281 INFO [Configuration] Configuration res ource: hibernate.cfg.xml hibernate.cfg.xml: <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> <!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD 3.0//EN" "http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd"> <hibernate-configuration> <session-factory> <!-- hibernate dialect --> org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLInnoDBDialect <!-- JDBC connection properties (begin) org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver org.hibernate.cache.HashtableCacheProvider <!-- DataSource properties (begin) ===--> java:/jpdlDS <!--==== DataSource properties (end) --> <!-- JTA transaction properties (begin) === org.hibernate.transaction.JTATransactionFactory org.hibernate.transaction.JBossTransactionManagerLookup ==== JTA transaction properties (end) --> <!-- CMT transaction properties (begin) === org.hibernate.transaction.CMTTransactionFactory org.hibernate.transaction.JBossTransactionManagerLookup ==== CMT transaction properties (end) --> <!-- logging properties (begin) === --> true true <!--true ==== logging properties (end) --> <!-- ############################################ --> <!-- # mapping files with external dependencies # --> <!-- ############################################ --> <!-- following mapping file has a dependendy on --> <!-- 'bsh-{version}.jar'. --> <!-- uncomment this if you don't have bsh on your --> <!-- classpath. you won't be able to use the --> <!-- script element in process definition files --> <!-- following mapping files have a dependendy on --> <!-- 'jbpm-identity.jar', mapping files --> <!-- of the pluggable jbpm identity component. --> <!-- Uncomment the following 3 lines if you --> <!-- want to use the jBPM identity mgmgt --> <!-- component. --> <!-- identity mappings (begin) --> <!-- identity mappings (end) --> <!-- following mapping files have a dependendy on --> <!-- the JCR API --> <!-- jcr mappings (begin) === ==== jcr mappings (end) --> <!-- ###################### --> <!-- # jbpm mapping files # --> <!-- ###################### --> <!-- hql queries and type defs --> <!-- graph.action mapping files --> <!-- graph.def mapping files --> <!-- graph.node mapping files --> <!-- context.def mapping files --> <!-- taskmgmt.def mapping files --> <!-- module.def mapping files --> <!-- bytes mapping files --> <!-- file.def mapping files --> <!-- scheduler.def mapping files --> <!-- graph.exe mapping files --> <!-- module.exe mapping files --> <!-- context.exe mapping files --> <!-- job mapping files --> <!-- taskmgmt.exe mapping files --> <!-- logging mapping files --> </session-factory> </hibernate-configuration> View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4167497#...
