do you have `choix` variable set in your activiti-explorer process instance?

Hi Martin,

Thank you for your answer.
I suppose the variable "choix" is initialized automatically within the activiti-explorer process instance.

I declare this variable within a form:
<code>
<activiti:formProperty id="choix" name="Choix" type="enum" required="true">
</code>
… and I find that (I quote from "https://forums.activiti.org/content/how-store-and-retrieve-process-instance-variable-values-explorer-tasks"):
"All form values are stored as process variables, so putting them on the form automatically makes it a process variable."

Isn't that right?

Hi all,

I figured it, eventually.
The problem was … that I used to deploy a process via "Processes"->"Model workspace"->"Import", then "Deploy".
It doesn't work, I do not know why.

Today I successfully deployed my first workflow and it works like a charm.
I did that via "Manage"->"Deployments"->"Upload New".

So, case closed … unless someone can explain me why it works the second way and not the first.
