Hi,

what are you trying to achieve with timer? Is it used to signal wait state after particular period of time? If so it should look like this:

     <transition name="toGetStatus" to="get status">

           <timer duedate="2 minutes"/>

      </transition>


Please remember that when you use timer in your process then while testing it there are two ways of triggering it:
1. use ManagmentService.executeJob

     Job job = managementService.createJobQuery()
 
      .processInstanceId(processInstance.getId())
 
      .uniqueResult();
 
    managementService.executeJob(job.getId());

2. enable job executor in your jbpm.cfg.xml (uncomment <import resource="jbpm.jobexecutor.cfg.xml" />)
and remember to put the main thread to sleep to be able to wait for job executor to trigger your timer.

HTH
Maciej
