Please find attached test case which I use to reproduce problem. To run test just use "mvn test". http://drools-java-rules-engine.46999.n3.nabble.com/file/n1405303/event-t... event-test%28signalInRules%29.zip Issue is that event fired in rules using signalEvent doesn't allow to fire rules again. So the issue is: In flow: drools.getWorkingMemory().setFocus("create-fault-event"); drools.getWorkingMemory().fireAllRules(); This prints output. In rule: drools.getKnowledgeRuntime().signalEvent("LocalEvent", null); In flow: drools.getWorkingMemory().setFocus("create-fault-event"); drools.getWorkingMemory().fireAllRules(); No output - rules not fired. Not sure why.... Regards, Ivan -- View this message in context: http://drools-java-rules-engine.46999.n3.nabble.com/Event-fired-in-rules-...
