The exception occurs when you're starting the processes. Make sure the value you pass in in startProcessInstanceByKey(…) is the same as the id of the process-definition in the BPMN xml. That's the only way you can get a 'no processes deployed with key 'receiveTask'' error…</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Fri, 06 Dec 2013 10:43:06 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/how-to-signal-receivetask-externally/m-p/172660#M125862 frederikherema1 2013-12-06T10:43:06Z
