Please post your process.

We have testcases for a subprocess + error event, so it should normally work.

Hello,

any update on that topic? I have probably had the same problem:

My problem was, that I had a typo in the definition of the error at the boundary-event of the calling process

<boundaryEvent attachedToRef="calling"
   cancelActivity="true" id="callingError">
   <errorEventDefinition errorRef="someTypo" />
</boundaryEvent>

This led to an endless loop in ErrorEndEventActivityBehavior.executeCatchInSuperProcess(ActivityExecution)

    while (!found && outgoingExecution != null) {

      if (outgoingExecution != null && catchingActivity != null) {
      …
      }
   }

as after one iteration I had found=false, outgoingExecution!=null, catchingActivity=null

It would be desirable to get an exception in this case. If I hadn't had this running in the debugger, I'd probably still searching for that error 😞

Thanks and regards

Franz
