Hey,
did you try to skip Activiti security autoconfiguration?

<code>
@EnableAutoConfiguration(exclude = {
org.activiti.spring.boot.SecurityAutoConfiguration.class
})
</code>

I didn't test it yet. (it's just theory) .
http://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/using-boot-auto-configuration.html

Will be nice if you could provide a sample application to show this behaviour and then the community will have some source code to play with.

Hi, i ve managed to disable activitis spring security (we are using shiro) by excluding 4 classes :
<java>
@EnableAutoConfiguration(exclude = {
        org.activiti.spring.boot.RestApiAutoConfiguration.class,
        org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.security.SecurityAutoConfiguration.class,
        org.activiti.spring.boot.SecurityAutoConfiguration.class,
        org.springframework.boot.actuate.autoconfigure.ManagementSecurityAutoConfiguration.class})
</java>

and overriding RestApiAutoConfiguration class - removed SecurityConfiguration conf class.

This might be coming late but for anybody that wants to try, this worked for me in <activiti.version>5.19.0.1</activiti.version>

@EnableAutoConfiguration(exclude = {
        org.activiti.spring.boot.RestApiAutoConfiguration.class,
        org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.security.SecurityAutoConfiguration.class,
        org.activiti.spring.boot.SecurityAutoConfiguration.class,
        org.springframework.boot.actuate.autoconfigure.ManagementWebSecurityAutoConfiguration.class
})

I believe this might be pretty late, but for me the below worked. I am using Spring Boot 1.5.2.RELEASE and activiti 5.22.0 and activiti-rest 5.17.0.

@SpringBootApplication(exclude = {
org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.security.SecurityAutoConfiguration.class,
org.activiti.spring.boot.SecurityAutoConfiguration.class,
org.springframework.boot.actuate.autoconfigure.ManagementWebSecurityAutoConfiguration.class })

supersun _‌ Thanks for the pointer, but if I had org.activiti.spring.boot.RestApiAutoConfiguration.class added to this, then none of the REST APIs were exposed, so that need to be taken out from the exclusion list.

Hope this helps people having similar issues.
