[JBoss jBPM] - Re: jBPM-3.3.0.GA Released
by kukeltje
Some remarks on the installer:
The usecase for the installer that is used in 3.3 is different than the one for the zip (suite) that was used pre 3.3.
If you want to just have the jars, use the maven repo
The installer can be executed by issuing:
java -jar jbpm-jpdl-3.3.0GA.jar
The installer is kind of unpacking things and does some other stuff like e.g. downloading a JBoss AS if you want, or configure an existing JBoss AS to have jBPM run in it.
It will support you in configuring your DB. If HSQLDB is choosen, the embedded version will be correctly configured to be used by jBPM. For other DBMS'es the configuration will be mostly complete. In the jbpm datasource file the correct properties still have to be set as well as manually populating the DB with the jBPM tables and user data. The DDL scripts for many databases are in the database directory where jBPM was unpacked.
An example script for creating the user tables and populating it with data can be found in the wiki mysql

[JBoss jBPM] - Re: How to get jBPM 3.3.0 standalone without having jBoss Se

The usecase for the installer is different than the one for the zip
If you want the separate jars, use the maven repo.
The .jar file is an installer that you can install with the command I mentioned in one (or two) posts below this one, the one about documentation and installing jBPM 3.3 (search functionality is great btw). After running the installer there is a lib directory with all separate jars. The installer is kind of unpacking things and does some other stuff that you can ignore the outcome of. You might indeed think that a JBoss AS server is needed, but it isn't realy. You can point the installer to a temp dir as a fake existing JBoss AS installation just make it continue. The same is true for the DB, just say hsqldb and ignore the fact that it creates some files in this temporary/fake JBoss AS dir. So no it does not force you to have it runtime but yes if you want to use the installer you have to point to something.
