Hi, I have also the same problem but I'm using Activiti. I want also to deploy my .bpmn file after I created deployment artifacts. I want to test it on my local server before I deploy it on my web server. Please help. I need to deploy new .bpmn file since I updated its content. My new process definitions are unreadable and I suspect it was the missing redeployment.

I'm really not following both posts here … what are you trying to do? Redeploy a process definition? What are you using Explorer, Activiti engine, Activiti enterprise, etc …

mmm well i add the postgresql driver into the WEBINF/lib and change my db.propiertes, i do it with WinRar … but now i have a question how i can use activiti REST API standalone?

I need to create the engine and configuration classes? how i can start the process? … and it's necesary use servlets? … sorry if my questions are silly but im new with activiti and the development

Sorry i don't speak english, only spanish, is very hard to me understand, im from Bolivia

"I need to create the engine and configuration classes?"

You only need to configure the database at minimum if you don't use the default one. No need to create the engine, that's already done for you by the rest webapp.

"how i can start the process?"

By calling the REST API for starting a process instance (i would guess it's something with POST to the process instances url)

"and it's necesary use servlets? "

No

Me neither, from that error. There is nothing more? A stacktrace leading to the actual problem?
