set &lt;property name="databaseSchemaUpdate" to value="true" or value="create-drop" (use create-drop for testing only!) in bean processEngineConfiguration in activiti.cfg.xml for automatic schema creation</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>So it seems like I need the "activiti.cfg.xml" from the examples. I copied it to src/main/resources/ (and also to src/main/config/) but I still get the same error. If this file is needed for an "Activiti Project" it would be nice if it would be created automatically when creating an "Activiti Project". Nevertheless, what am I doing wrong here? Where do I have to put this file or am I missing something else?</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thank you in advance.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Wed, 16 Nov 2011 13:06:17 GMT d_y_ 2011-11-16T13:06:17Z Some questions regarding Activiti https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/some-questions-regarding-activiti/m-p/55079#M33023 Hey guys,I'm trying to get a simple web app running but I'm kinda stuck at first steps.I created a "new Activiti Project" in eclipse and converted it to a maven project so far so good.
