Service task fails after a timer task

shreekant — Mon, 16 Jun 2014 02:57:38 GMT

I have a workflow, in which a service task gets attempted periodically. The first run, when it is followed by a userTask works fine. But the next one, which is after a timer interval, fails. I see a message in database in "ACT_RU_JOB" saying "could not instantiate class …", which does not make sense

Hi,

Could you create jUnit test for this case please?

I am having a similar issue. I have a service task after a timer task in a process and it gives me an error like, "Class could not be found".
And without the timer, the same task runs just fine.
How is the timer responsible for class instantiation?
Could you please help me out on this.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

The timer is not responsible for the class instantiation, but this is done in a job executor thread. Is this something you can reproduce or does it only occur in rare cases?

Best regards,
