I fixed the above error with by adding an action tag around mail ( just guessed it..is it right? ) <timer duedate="2 minutes" name="reminder" repeat="yes"> | <action> | <mail name="notification" template="custom-test"/> | </action> | </timer> But now there is no notification being sent..I have added a custom template in the jbpm.templates - so that is not the issue definitely..if i add a reminder it works - so my mail configuration is fine., what is wrong?????
