topic Activiti 6 Task Assignment Issue in Alfresco Archive https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/activiti-6-task-assignment-issue/m-p/210015#M163145 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Hi,</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I ran into an issue when trying to setup a simple workflow using Activiti 6.0.0 Beta1.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>My Development Environment:</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Spring Boot 1.2.6</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Activiti 6.0.0. Beta 1</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Eclipse STS.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Note:</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>I'm using spring boot and have added the Activiti 6 jar dependencies manually in the gradle file.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Scenario:</SPAN><BR /><SPAN><SPAN>The workflow process is a simple one - basically, from my spring base java code, whenever there is an exception, I instantiate an Activiti "ErrorProcess" (a process that I created using Activiti 6 UI App). This "ErrorProcess" is passed the "exceptionDetails" from the java code as a string, and in the workflow, there is a UserTask that uses "</SPAN><A class="jive-link-email-small" href="mailto:user@company.com" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">user@company.com</A><SPAN>" as the Assignee. Basically, the form just retrieves the ${exceptionDetails} from the start node and displays in a "display text" field.</SPAN></SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Issues:</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>There are two issues that I can observe:</SPAN><BR /><SPAN><SPAN>1. The process does get deployed correctly. However, the issue is that the task assignment doesn't seem to be happening correctly. I.e., when I log into the Activiti 6 UI App and view the Tasks tab, there are no tasks assigned for "</SPAN><A class="jive-link-email-small" href="mailto:user@company.com" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">user@company.com</A><SPAN>". I also tried assigning to a candidate group (Superusers) that the user "</SPAN><A class="jive-link-email-small" href="mailto:user@company.com" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">user@company.com</A><SPAN>" is part of, but that yielded the same result (i.e. the task was not visible in the tasks tab).</SPAN></SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>2. In the Activiti UI App (AngularJS based), when I try to initiate a new process instance, the right hand pane seems to be loading the form but it doesn't appear (all I can see is animation with three dots indicating that it is still being loaded…). The actual form with exceptionDetails field is not displayed.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>What could be the issue ? Greatly appreciate any insights you could provide as we are looking forward to use Activiti 6 in a large project, however, this has become a show stopper.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>The BPMN file is given below:</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt;</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&lt;definitions xmlns="</SPAN><A href="http://www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/20100524/MODEL" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/20100524/MODEL</A><SPAN>" xmlns:xsi="</SPAN><A href="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance</A><SPAN>" xmlns:xsd="</SPAN><A href="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema</A><SPAN>" xmlns:activiti="</SPAN><A href="http://activiti.org/bpmn" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://activiti.org/bpmn</A><SPAN>" xmlns:bpmndi="</SPAN><A href="http://www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/20100524/DI" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/20100524/DI</A><SPAN>" xmlns<img id="smileysurprised" class="emoticon emoticon-smileysurprised" src="https://connect.hyland.com/i/smilies/16x16_smiley-surprised.png" alt="Smiley Surprised" title="Smiley Surprised" />mgdc="</SPAN><A href="http://www.omg.org/spec/DD/20100524/DC" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://www.omg.org/spec/DD/20100524/DC</A><SPAN>" xmlns<img id="smileysurprised" class="emoticon emoticon-smileysurprised" src="https://connect.hyland.com/i/smilies/16x16_smiley-surprised.png" alt="Smiley Surprised" title="Smiley Surprised" />mgdi="</SPAN><A href="http://www.omg.org/spec/DD/20100524/DI" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://www.omg.org/spec/DD/20100524/DI</A><SPAN>" typeLanguage="</SPAN><A href="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema</A><SPAN>" expressionLanguage="</SPAN><A href="http://www.w3.org/1999/XPath" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://www.w3.org/1999/XPath</A><SPAN>" targetNamespace="</SPAN><A href="http://www.activiti.org/test" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://www.activiti.org/test</A><SPAN>"&gt;</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp;

Did you set an assignee or a candidate user? A candidate user is only able to claim a task, it doesn't get assigned automatically. About your second issue, it would be good if you could share the app you created so we can try to reproduce.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Best regards,</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Wed, 11 Nov 2015 21:07:27 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/activiti-6-task-assignment-issue/m-p/210016#M163146 trademak 2015-11-11T21:07:27Z
