The provided solution worked, but I had to extract all jBPM *.hbm.xml files to the source/classes folder, because Spring was unable to load them from the JAR file. I have another question. I have Job Executor configured in jbpm.cfg.xml file like this: <bean name="jbpm.job.executor" class="org.jbpm.job.executor.JobExecutor"> | <field name="jbpmConfiguration"> <ref bean="jbpmConfiguration" /> </field> | <field name="name"><string value="JbpmJobExecutor" /></field> | <field name="nbrOfThreads"><int value="1" /></field> | <field name="idleInterval"><int value="5000" /></field> | <field name="maxIdleInterval"><int value="3600000" /></field> <!-- 1 hour --> | <field name="historyMaxSize"><int value="20" /></field> | <field name="maxLockTime"><int value="600000" /></field> <!-- 10 minutes --> | <field name="lockMonitorInterval"><int value="60000" /></field> <!-- 1 minute --> | <field name="lockBufferTime"><int value="5000" /></field> <!-- 5 seconds --> | </bean> How can I move that definition into the Spring XML configuration? Is it possible to entirely ignore jbpm.cfg.xml and move entire jBPM configuration into the Spring XML files?
