Re: [rules-users] drools-example-brms

Hi Fernando, Removing the compiled package will help, but the problem that myself and the other users have encountered also occurs with the RuleAgent url due to the incorrect version of mvel (see the first part of my earlier post in this thread). I suspect you will also need to update the mvel jar in the lib directory in http://anonsvn.labs.jboss.com/labs/jbossrules/trunk/drools-examples/drool... from mvel14-1.2pre5.jar to mvel14-1.2rc1.jar. My main concern is that this problem is in the official 4.0 GA download option "Drools 4.0.0 Examples", and consequently a lot of new users may have problems getting the BRMS examples to work. As the examples are often the first thing new users try, then it would be good to fix this and make the fix available on the Drools download page, as well updating the trunk.
