This lead to big issues because I have some old transition that are not visible but that are applied by the engine during execution. So I have task executed two times, not once as I see in my p

First error is related to save all feature. Make any change to process definiton, set focus on other eclipse windows and save all.

About the second problem, I'm not sure what lead to desync but I've never change the generated xml manually. Maybe deleting any transaction or point a transaction to another task and deleting it afterwards leave the parser in a non-coherent state.

Problems could be related… I can't save modification from time to time… Let me know if I could provide better information.

P.S. plugin doesn't start at all with java 1.5

edit: this is an example of the wrong code generated by the plugin. An empty text tag and an html tag (not valid). I've nothing in the text field in designer, so why this is generated?

Hi,
We have the same "second problem", did you find a solution?

Our problem is that a "service task" launch a process of updating database that takes a few minutes and while it is running activiti launch a second execution of the process.

The only solution that I found is to rewrite the entire process from scratch… :cry: fortunately my process was not so big, but this bug lead me to a strong headache!
Use svn or cvs to save previous version of the process and cross your fingers.
I hope in Activiti development team for a quick bugfix

Ok, thanks.

Apparently this only happens in asynchronous tasks.
