Hi Tihomir,
Thanks a lot for your help. I have tried the Designer 2.3.0.Final and Guvnor's Validate Process passed!
However I am facing a new problem: Although I can see the Service Tasks icons in the palette (see attached picture), the icons are not displayed anymore in the business process diagram, and a FileNotFoundException is thrown every time I try to place one of these Service Tasks into the canvas. Please see the exception and tell me whether I missed something in the installation/replacement of the Designer.

BPMN2 Process doesn't show icons iconsException.txt
