Error 'this activity doesn't accept signals' when testing

Hello everyone,I integrated Activiti 5.13 inside my java web application (based on hibernate/spring/vaadin) to manage the business processes via the API (For example, when a user click on a button, it starts a process, and the user can see his tasks and complete them).I got some problems when I try

You don't show where you got the taskId from. Could you create a unit test showing the issue?

Best regards,

Sorry, I forgot that point.
I got the id of the task from the list returned by the taskQuery I wrote in my post :
<code>
// Check if a user task has been created
TaskQuery taskQuery = getActivitiTaskService().createTaskQuery().processVariableValueEquals(variableName, variableValue);
for (Task task : taskQuery.list()) {
// Complete it
getActivitiTaskService().complete(task.getId());
}
</code>

And I inject processEngine to get the task service :
<code>
private org.activiti.engine.TaskService getActivitiTaskService() {
return processEngine.getTaskService();
}
</code>

Are all the tasks part of the process-definition you mention above? Or is it possible that completing one task has impact on the availability of another task? Also, from where in the code do you call the "complete" code? I hope not from within the process itself?

Hi Frederik,

The complete task method is not called from the process itself, it is called from the test that I wrote to execute the process from the beginning to the end.

The task completion add a variable to the process to decide to do A or B using an exclusive gateway (which tests the variable value).

Can you create a JIRA issue and attach the unit test to it so we can reproduce it?

Thanks,

I created a unit test case to reproduce it and posted it as a JIRA issue : http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ACT-1811
