Alter Human Task attributes programatically

GBrown — Fri, 10 Sep 2010 19:06:32 GMT

Is it possible to alter/adjust certain Human task attributes? For example, based on logic in an orchestration can say the deadline duration be altered for a human task? Or can a deadline be removed, a role be reassigned, the display name/subject be updated, etc? basically, what of the original task settings can be updated from an orchestration on the fly?

JSON flattening the structure

SPagerka — Fri, 10 Sep 2010 16:01:28 GMT

HI,

after usage i could prefer to have json responses flattened without
$t parameters. It is possible to get the structure without $t and without namespaces?

i use jackson and i need to construct composite classes to read the structure finally as @JsonProperty($t). Namespaces are not so bad,
but the map structure "element":{$t:"value"} i need to map to jaxb2 or json annotations but "element":value.

why the $t are there?

so the development gets more complicated

AVOS Central Scrollbars in IE6

shanmughamj — Fri, 10 Sep 2010 14:56:52 GMT

Our client is using IE6, and AVOS Central renders with vertical and horizontal scroll bars in one of the interior sections (see attached screenshot). I wasn't able to track down a fix for this, but I was wondering if you've had to deal with this issue before, and if there is a customization we can provide to get Central to fit and size correctly for IE6. Thanks.

Scheduled upgrade of ActiveVOS

pvybiral — Fri, 10 Sep 2010 07:44:43 GMT

Hi,

I would like to ask you for hint regarding upgrade of ActiveVOS. Currently we are running in production version 6.2 and we would like to migrate to the new version this fall (starting in October) with go-live to production in January. Would you advice us to wait for the version 8.0 or is it safer to migrate just to version 7.1.2?

Thanks,
Pavel

Expiration of notifications

WildWorld — Thu, 09 Sep 2010 21:12:00 GMT

I am using notifications but they build up in number and I need a way to clean up notifications, say after a 2 week period.

I can't use a schedule to put an expiration on the notification as it's only allowed for tasks. How can I have the notifications removed after 2 weeks?

Error using TaskOperations.getMyTasks() with LDAP

Kirk.Rindfleisch — Thu, 09 Sep 2010 20:19:28 GMT

I have configured Designer to use LDAP as the Identity Service. Running my flow in Designer, ActiveVos Central authenticates against LDAP, and the human tasks are in the correct logical groups in boxes, and can be claimed, completed, etc. When I access the the same ActiveVOS instance (the local designer one) using the APIs, I can start the process, but calling TaskOperations.getMyTasks() to get the tasks for a user (same user as above) fails. If I use the tomcat-users.xml file as the identity service, it runs fine.

problems with invoking a WCF webservice

BTajeddin — Thu, 09 Sep 2010 15:17:50 GMT

Hi,

I have simple .Net WCF web service which I have tested in .Net client itself as well as SoapUI. So it is perfectly working.
It has two endpoints: WSHttpBinding and BasicHttpBinding.
For simplicity I am using the basic binding to avoid security policy etc...
my problem is that on invoking a method I get

HTML Code:

- 

- 

- 

  ns0:systemError 

  java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect

what's wrong??

Upgrade current instances of a process

jean-marc.gagne — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 19:34:59 GMT

Hello,

we designed a new version of our bpel process in order to resolve some problems.

Usually when we try to use the "Migrate version" option of the PDD file under general tab, it says that the changes are incompatible. In this situation what can we do with the current instances of a process that we can not upgrade. Is there a strategy to upgrade the version a curent process?

Additionnaly what kind of modification are accepted when we use the option "Migrate version"?

Thank you

Deploy jar file independently

Prarthana.Basireddy — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 15:51:06 GMT

HI,
I have a bpel which has POJO as a partnerlink and it has an external jar dependency . My requirement is : I have to deploy the .bpr file without the external jar . In my .pdd file i am manually editing it so that it can refer to the external .jar (which resides on my file system)file using file: protocol as below (Test.jar is the external .jar): But when i deploy and test it , it is throwing an error saying "
org.activebpel.rt.AeException: Unable to load classpath entry "file:C:\EAR\Test.jar" because remote classpath loading is disabled.". Is there a way I can enable remote class path loading ? I want to do it this way because we are customizing our deployment process.

Ineffective database design

mtomecek — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 14:48:19 GMT

Hi all,

I am posting this bug on behalf of On Demand support of Ceska Sporitelna. The system performance was quickly degrading over past weeks up to the points of request timeouting while the application servers were almost idle. The culprit was found analysing the DB traffic:

Code:

SELECT CoordinationRole, CoordinationId, State, ProcessId, CoordinationDocument 

FROM AeCoordination 

WHERE CoordinationId = :1

The COORDINATIONID is VARCHAR(255) which is indexed by AECOORDBYCOORDID but the actual query puts in a numeric type instead of textual that requires explicit SQL retype, thus forcing a full table scan performing the conversion on each line instead of the indexed match.

You can compare the execution plans of the actual ActiveVOS query and a corrected one (notice the apostrophes around the query value):

Code:

SELECT CoordinationRole, CoordinationId, State, ProcessId, CoordinationDocument FROM BPMS.AeCoordination WHERE CoordinationId = 55;

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 

| Id  | Operation         | Name           | Rows  | Bytes | Cost (%CPU)| Time     | 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 

|   0 | SELECT STATEMENT  |                |     2 |   226 | 12141   (1)| 00:02:26 | 

|*  1 |  TABLE ACCESS FULL| AECOORDINATION |     2 |   226 | 12141   (1)| 00:02:26 | 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Code:

SELECT CoordinationRole, CoordinationId, State, ProcessId, CoordinationDocument FROM BPMS.AeCoordination WHERE CoordinationId = '55';

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 

| Id  | Operation                   | Name             | Rows  | Bytes | Cost (%CPU)| Time     | 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 

|   0 | SELECT STATEMENT            |                  |     2 |   226 |     4   (0)| 00:00:01 | 

|   1 |  TABLE ACCESS BY INDEX ROWID| AECOORDINATION   |     2 |   226 |     4   (0)| 00:00:01 | 

|*  2 |   INDEX RANGE SCAN          | AECOORDBYCOORDID |     2 |       |     3   (0)| 00:00:01 | 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As the table growed, it was not able to fit completely to in-memory segments anymore and forced disk read of the table scan. The AECOORDINATION had about 200000 lines taking 350+MB total at the break time (the size is more or less function of the system configuration) and the IO loaded the database up to the point of not serving other requests in time.

The DB admins did a workaround deploying a new index manually mapped to numeric values:

Code:

create index BPMS.AECOORDBYCOORDID_NUM on BPMS.AECOORDINATION(TO_NUMBER("COORDINATIONID")) tablespace BPMS_DATA online;

The change put down disk read IO altogether reading only 3 block avg. from the cache per query.

Unfortunately chaging schema of a product is not allowed by corporate security/safety standards, therefore I need either a patch of the query execution or the new index officially.

I looking forward to hear from you asap.

Thank you,
Oldrich

Stucked proceses

DenissL — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 08:39:17 GMT

Hello,

We had a DB issue and some process were stuck in incomplete state. It is not possible to terminate process, or do anything with it.
How can we delete these order from DB? Is there a master table, so if we delete process form there, the t will be delete cascading from other tables. (example AEPROCESS).

how to set http://server/active-bpel/services available to public?

Chris.Conran — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 00:42:11 GMT

In the file of .....\Server\server-enterprise\jboss_config\deploy\ave_jboss\active-bpel\WEB-INF\web.xml

I can see that URL is set under "Unsecured services" section already as the following:

Unsecured services

Excludes specific services from being secured

/services

/services/activevosSiteComm

.......

From web browser interface,
http://server/active-bpel/services/activevosSiteComm is directly listing services, but
http://server/active-bpel/services keep popping up authentication window to access the service list.

How can I set http://server/active-bpel/services URL same to http://server/active-bpel/services/activevosSiteComm which is accessible without authentication ???

Thanks, let me know if need to attach the whole web.xml file.

AVOS communitates slowly with database

ZFall — Tue, 07 Sep 2010 08:36:24 GMT

Hi!

We have an AVOS (Version: 6.0.2 (3546)) on IBM Websphere 6.1 and a main process that starts many booking processes parallel. Some of the booking processes finish (will become completed) but some of them remain Running. I have got the following errors in websphere log:

Error saving state for process 44660
Caused by: java.sql.SQLException: DB2 SQL error: SQLCODE: -911, SQLSTATE: 40001, SQLERRMC: 2 Query: DELETE FROM AeProcessJournal
WHERE JournalId = ? Parameters: [1070255]

Process 44520: save took 67781 milliseconds
Process 44523: save took 65719 milliseconds
Process 44521: save took 67438 milliseconds

So the processes have finished very slowly and after 10 minutes no Running process become Completed.

What can we do?

I attached the webphere log.

Problems with unmarshalling anyType with JAXB

LVWijk — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 20:07:09 GMT

I have an xsd element, businessProcessMetaData defined in businessProcessMetaData.xsd.

The businessMetaData element contains an element applicationData of anyType.

In the application_data.xsd file I have defined a complextype applicationDataType and an element pacmanApplicationData.

In my business process I have defined a variable businessProcessMetatData as a schema element.

My intend is to have a second variable that matches the applicationDataType, insert values into the variable and then to copy it to the applicationData element of the businessProcessMetaData variable.

If in the business process I create the applicationData variable as a schema type and insert it into the businessProcessMetatData this is what the businessProcessMetaData variable looks like:

Code:



    CreateForecastGroups

    CreateForecastGroups2414

    In Progress

    PacMan

    2414

    0

    0

    CreateForecastGroups-MRSC01

    

       MORGANS

       ISLA01

If I declare the applicationData variable as an element it looks like this

Code:



    CreateForecastGroups

    CreateForecastGroups2415

    In Progress

    PacMan

    2415

    0

    0

    CreateForecastGroups-MRSC01

    
               xmlns:aeaaanstmp0="http://xml.platform.tetris.ideas.com/schema/businessprocessmetadata/v1"

               xmlns:aetgt="http://xml.common.platform.tetris.ideas.com/schema/bpms/applicationData/pacman/v1">

       MORGANS

       ISLA01

However I am unable to unmarshall either one. Neither of these declare the type of the applicationData.

What I need to achieve is something that looks like this:

Code:

 

    CreateForecastGroups

    CreateForecastGroups2401

    In Progress

    PacMan

    2401

    0

    0

    CreateForecastGroups-MRSC01

    
           xmlns:aetgt0="http://xml.common.platform.tetris.ideas.com/schema/bpms/applicationData/pacman/v1" 

               xsi:type="aetgt0:applicationDataType"> 

       MORGANS

       MRSC01

In this scenario the applicationData of the businessProcessMetaData element is defined to be of type applicationDataType and I can unmarshal this using JAXB without a problem.

I would appreciate any help in getting this to work.

Thanks
Louis

ActiveVOS Reports and list of available reports

WildWorld — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 16:03:42 GMT

I have created custom reports and deployed them in ActiveVos console and activeVos central.

When I look at the reports in ActiveVos Console, my custom reports are not in any category. The report name does not match my current report name. The description and group are blank.

In ActiveVos Central, the custom reports are availble in the reports menu, tab for the report category definition I made. The Name and Description are displayed correctly.

What do I need to change to fix these issues in ActiveVos Console:
1) create a report category
2) display the proper name for each report
3) display a description and a group name for each report

Custom Report Deployment JDBC Config

WildWorld — Mon, 30 Aug 2010 20:31:59 GMT

I have created custom BIRT reports for ActiveVos Console and ActiveVos Central usiing ActiveVos designer 7.1.1

I created a JDBC Data Source configuration to facilitate the development of the reports but when I deploy in production, the report should be using the same profile as the reports already running on the ActiveVos server.

Some how I have to change or create a new JDBC connection profile to match what is on the server at deployment time. How do I accomplish this?

Hi,

I have a simple web service endpoint that is throwing a custom fault. In my orchestration, I am attempting to call that service and catch the fault. For some reason, I don't get any context with my fault when invoking the live service through ActiveVOS, and the catch handler never executes. Please see the private forum for a post with the orchestration and sample end point attached.

Hi,

I'm calling for a few help here, the search function with "system properties" did not get me any relevant topics or documentation on Active Endpoints website for my questions (well, did not read all the pages of topics that contains these words).

First of all, we are on ActiveVOS 7.1.2 on JBoss, except local development which is made on ActiveVOS 7.1.2 with the server inside the designer for ease of use.

My company has different environnements for testing the software deployments, and developers should not have access to the ones involved in the latest tests, namely just before the production deployment. My component is configured for these environnement with ANT scripts, each of them builing the BPR file for one environment, based on a .properties file in the Designer project. In fact :

step 1) the ANT script copies a template.pdd file into flow_{environement}.pdd, replacing in the template.pdd file some pre-defined character sequence for endpoints, password, and username. For example, in the template.pdd file, the partner endpoint is configured with @##endpoint#@, which is replaced by ANT with the endpoint corresponding to the environement for which I'm compiling the archive.
step 2) the ANT script creates the BPR file with the environement-specific generated PDD file.

This works perfectly fine, but :

1) the passwords / endpoints must be in SVN repository (in fact their hashes, so there is not really security threat here).
2) the passwords / endpoints must be configured before the compilation

The point 2) makes our process quite complicated for deployments, because SVN is a developer tool and, even if deployers can have access to it, they should not. Usually (for standard JAX-WS), developers prepare a SVN version and prepare in a tool a SVN Tag for a deployment. The deployers then takes the compiled files from SVN (through a specific tool), place the EAR file on the server, then create the configuration files in the /server/server_name/conf/props/ for configuring endpoints, passwords, usernames, and lots of informations for the WS to run. Nothing really new here, I guess much companies have similar configuration process.

For ActiveVOS, we cannot have the same process, because our SVN (developers) has to be configured with all these deployers-specific informations.

My question is then : is there a way for ActiveVOS BPEL Process to access the properties loaded in the JBoss server through a .properties file in any matter, and to inject it in the PDD configuration file for endpoint dynamic configuration ?

I hope my description of our problem is quite clear, I guess the question did not need it to be clear, but it is to explain more clearly why we are wishing to have this.

I'm sure this is already provided in ActiveVOS, or in BPEL specifications, but under a name that I did not recognise, and maybe not under a .properties file loaded in the JBoss server.

Thanks for help

Behavior of AVOS when db is full

mtomecek — Fri, 27 Aug 2010 08:07:36 GMT

Hi,

we are using Oracle db, and when Oracle db's log archive runs out of space, server stops giving new connections. When the logs are deleted or space created, it starts to work again.

My question is: How will AVOS react when it's DB gets into this state?

Processes stuck on wait activity

jean-marc.gagne — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 18:37:37 GMT

Hello,

we have a strange case. Five processes are stuck on a wait activity, but there is nothing in the alarm queue. I found an error in the server log related to these processes. For example the process which ID is 1124 is stuck on a wait activity. I found in the server log an error message "failed to save process" for this process.

I wonder why we haven't received any alarm for this error? We defined an alert service on our server which send us an email when there is an error. Why we haven't received any email for this error?

Attached to this post is server log, two screen shot of the process and the log for process 1124.

Thank you!

Is there a critical number of stored processes?

mtomecek — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 13:05:46 GMT

In our application, we will need to store all the processes (included the system ones) a year back.

This will be aproximately 2 400 000 processes (of all states), stored on an Oracle DB machine.

Are you familiar with anything, that may create a performance or other problem, besides low performance of the DB machine?

In other words: If we are going to have strong and powerfull DB machine (powerfull enough), is there something other that may cause problems of any kind?

Hi,

Could you tell me if it is possible to reactivate or rewind a completed process ?
We discovered a data error in our process. We want to correct it in some instances already completed and restart them. It is important for us to keep the same instance of the process and not to start a new one because of data and reports issues.

Thank you,

The particular node clf_s3 stopped completely to respond to process requests at that time (WS-HT, identity service, new business processes etc.).

What do you suggest to monitor to get more information in case of next problem? I would think of periodic threaddumping, what else?

Process waiting indefinitely in onEvent with receive stuck in queue

mtomecek — Tue, 24 Aug 2010 12:49:04 GMT

Hi,

I have a problem regarding a seemingly stuck process. It failed in an invoke and upon rewind and desuspend, it is stuck in an onEvent from the past, while there is a a corresponding entry in the Receive Queue of the particular PID/Link/Port Type/Operation. The system went haywire in the meantime with stuck threadpools and was restarted at 9:07 today so it is possible the issues are interconnected (I will post the stuck in another thread soon).

The log entry of the start of the event execution:

Code:

[423630][2010-08-23 07:10:41.801] EventHandlers : Executing [/process/sequence/if/if-condition/scope[@name='Main_scope']/eventHandlers]

[423630][2010-08-23 07:10:41.801] OnEvent : Executing [/process/sequence/if/if-condition/scope[@name='Main_scope']/eventHandlers/onEvent]

The data of the entry in the receive queue:

Code:

Receiver Details        

PartnerLink Type:        SecuredLoansManagement_Consumer       

Port Type:       http://schemas.csas.cz/clf/hop/bpm/service/SecuredLoansManagement/process:SecuredLoansManagement       

       

Operation:       cancelProcess 

Process ID:      423630        



Correlation data:

{http://schemas.csas.cz/clf/hop/bpm/SecuredLoansManagement/correlation}cancelCaseId=1005119455

Please see the process log in the attachment.

My questions:
1) What is actually indicated in the Receive Queue list? What should, and what should not be there?
2) What caused this strange state of the process?
3) Is there a way to repair the process? E.g. replay the receive or whatever?

Thank you,
Oldrich

Invoking processes from Java

mtomecek — Tue, 24 Aug 2010 11:00:56 GMT

Hi all,

I am examining the ability to invoke processes directly from Java without the overhead of SOAP processing in Metro SOAP engine in ActiveVOS (see )http://infocenter.activevos.com/info.../SvrUG4-2.html. This would greatly help and simplify the solution because almost all of our customers use MQ or similar integration instead of WebServices including disparate GUI behind ESB (thus direct EJB invocation would bring no unnecessary SOAP processing and less layers to manage).

I have a questions related to the topic:
1) Does it fully support system services (human task, identity service etc.)?
2) Is this feature production ready in 7.1.2?
3) In general, what is missing compared to SOAP/WS invocation? Are there any specific problems?

Thank you,
Oldrich

Cannot access tasks wsdl on Jboss

Hi,

We are having some problems with ActiveVos server 7.1.2 on Jboss 5.1 (Ubuntu 10.04). Installation went without problems, we can also access Activevos console.

We are having problems accessing service wsdl files. For example system wsdl for tasks

gives as error 404 Not Found: Invalid request

There are no other meaningful errors in the logs.

Any ideas?

Error in doXslTransformation

mtomecek — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 16:15:34 GMT

Hi,

I encountered a strange error in regard of odXslTransform in our processes - the assign activity calling the transformation sometimes fails with following error message:

Code:

The second parameter to doXslTransform did not evaluate to an Element (EII).

I am sending the sources to the private section. The process is SecuredLoansManagement, the activity Set_priority next after Documentation human task. The assignment:

Code:

From:

expression=bpel:doXslTransform('project:/HOPBpmCommon/xsl/transform/setTasksPriority.xsl',$documentationOutput/ns14:contextData,'OriginalPriority',$taskPriority) 

To:

variable=taskPriority

takes the output of that human task.

It appears to me that the system cannot properly instantiate/validate the taskContext attribute (taken from the HT output) when it contains the insertedDocuments sequence array that is added to the inherited subtype DocumentationOutput (of the TaskOutput supertype) that is actually returned from the task.

Example task output, that DID NOT cause the error:

Code:



   

      10

      true

   

   false

Example of data, that DID cause the problem:

Code:



   

      100

      true

   

   false

   

      

         4200196835

         SecurityContract

         true

         false

         4200196836

         RealEstateCadastreInsertionProposal

         true

         false

         nnv_01_0313827199.doc

         83456

Another example of data, that DID cause the problem:

Code:



   

      100

      true

   

   false

   

      

         4200196831

         LoanContractAppendix

         true

         false

         D_01_0272879119.doc

         111616

Could it potentially be the namespaces in the process/definition of the assign/the task output? The BPEL imports:

Code:

xmlns:slmTask="http://schemas.csas.cz/clf/hop/bpm/service/SecuredLoansManagementTasks"

xmlns:ns14="http://schemas.csas.cz/clf/hop/bpm/common/TaskContext"

and the task gives out slmTask:documentationOutput while the Expression Builder in Designer puts in the $documentationOutput/ns14:contextData sublement to the assignment. I do not understand the mechanisms of referencing in inherited xsd objects that much to decide on this particular question.

Either way, could you please provide me with means of making that doXslTransform work?

Thank you,
Oldrich

Note that there are no running processes on the server (all processes are terminated or failed.

Are you familiar with this issue?
Any idea how to resolve it?

Json+rest+wsht-api

SPagerka — Fri, 20 Aug 2010 14:31:17 GMT

Hi,

I need to consult following issue with you.
WSHT api is exposed and accesible via JSON.

Is the functionality exposed full?,
can all operations be called via json/rest?

How it is with user credentials, may we use the whole ht api
over json/rest setup?

Are there some any implementations of JSON/REST usage of
WSHT api (in other words, did any company used the setup and
sucesfully finished the implementation? or it is only marketing trick,
need to be completed in version 8.)?

We plan to use JMS<->JSON/REST implementation of client for WSHT api. could you give me comments on that? (custom implementation of
jms listener or application that is remotely calling wsht api.

custom implementation of jms listener might be used in avos.
can this implementation use JSON?

best regards

Strange behavior of processes with similar operations - BUG?

mtomecek — Thu, 19 Aug 2010 09:02:52 GMT

Hello,

we found a strange behavior: when the process have multiple operations on interface and the operations have the same types and numbers of parameters (when they only differ in names), AVOS always picks one (always the same) operation and run it, no matter which one was called.

Eclipse project with this behavior is in attachement.

Here's the problem written as I recreated it:

- I deployed the process, then imported WSDL to the Soap UI for testing.
- Called the DoFirst with some random values.
- Called the DoSecond with some random values.
- Looked to the AVOS console, see both calls ended in the DoFirst pick branch.

Is there a way how to avoid it? Besides moving each pick branch to separate process, of course...

Complex Event Processing problem

mtomecek — Tue, 17 Aug 2010 19:56:45 GMT

Hi,

I have a little problem using the CEP; kindly check the project uploaded to the private section. I would like it to emit events from the main process (ApplicationProcess) that invoke a separate process (LoggerProcess) that persists the information from the event to an audit database. The DB connection is solved but I have troubles with the events.

I have the indexed properties defined and events defined (although all have the same name LASLog) in ApplicationProcess.pdd. Besides of that, I have my pattern defined in LoggingPattern.epp as

Code:

every (logEvent=LASLog)

- I need every LASLog event placed in the strategic parts of the process to fire the
logging process (there are not so many in the scenario).

Problem 1) First of all, is such CEP usage advisable? Are there any caveats?

Problem 2): Only the first event seems to be emitted according to the logs. Could be the problem of non-unique names?

Problem 3): The event-processing process (LoggerProcess) fails. I cannot make it analyze the input data from the event. The event structure is (cut from server log):

Code:

Can anyone tell me how to get rid of this error?

WSHT4J and JBoss5.1 JAXB

Reineke — Tue, 17 Aug 2010 15:56:00 GMT

We use WSHT4J in our client WAR, which we deploy on Tomcat 6.0.18 and on JBoss 5.1, both with JDK 1.6.
Our tasks have an XSLT stylesheet as custom rendering.
We retrieve the stylesheet with com.activevos.api.humantask.wsht.htd.TRendering.ge tAny().

The Problem is that under JBoss the stylesheet doesn't have the namespace declarations anymore, that are needed for the XPaths of the stylesheet.
With our Tomcat application the problem does not exist.

Our guess is that this is caused by JAXB. We don't provide the jaxb-api.jar and jaxb-impl.jar (JAXB 2.1) from your sdk. So Tomcat uses JAXB 2.0 from JDK 1.6, but JBoss uses its own JAXB 2.1

Do you have any ideas or experience that can help us?

Large XML

MBucayan — Tue, 17 Aug 2010 03:07:48 GMT

Hi,

We are expecting a large XMLs (around 2MB) to be submitted to initiate our existing process. It is large because it contains a very long list.

What should we consider to assure that the ActiveVOS Console will load the process in the process view quickly and the ActiveVOS Engine will not be affected performance-wise?

Cheers,
Mark

BUnit Error

ZiadC — Mon, 16 Aug 2010 21:32:41 GMT

Im using avos 7.1.2. When I try to edit a bunit using Design view and save it, it messes up the bunit file and wont run it. If you go and look at the erros, they dont make any sense.
Now, If I make the same changes under Source, it wont complain, but its more hard and tricky to update a bunit via Source tab.

Thanks!

Cycle error

malteh.wiskott — Mon, 16 Aug 2010 14:16:01 GMT

Hello,

I'm trying to understand why I have this error in my bpel.

Quote:

The source activity for link L2 is part of a cycle and has more than one non-exclusive outbound links which is an error. The source for the multiple links must be an exclusive gateway (or have Mutually Exclusive Transitions set to yes). If the intention is to fork the execution into parallel paths then you must use a structured fork/join (flow) control flow or a parallel for each.

I created 2 test bpel files and I wanted to know why one of them is valid and the other one not.

The general goal of my project is to use AV to manage the navigation of JSF screens.

Please find attached my 2 files.

Thank you very much

Malte Wiskott

AdminAPI: How to access fault returned by subprocess?

LarryBarker — Fri, 13 Aug 2010 21:13:10 GMT

Hi AV Support Folks,

I have a sub-process that does a "Reply with Fault". We have "Suspend on Uncaught Fault" turned on, so the activity in the parent process gets suspended. How can I get access to the fault from the parent activity via the admin API?

In the Admin Console, the only place I can see the fault message is if I find the associated "sub-process", find the Reply activity, and look at its parameters... Is there a better way?

Feel free to call 818-560-1762 to discuss...

Thanks!
