Programmatic deployment --> process definition not detected

mtaal — Mon, 02 Jan 2012 16:37:57 GMT

Hi,I am programmatically deploying a bpmn definition (the vacation request example). The deployment is visible in the admin ui of the explorer, but no processdefinition is created. I can see that the xml is there. If I upload directly in the UI then the process definition is found.I checked and I do

Ok, a typo from my side, the resource containing the bpmn definition should have the correct suffix:
.bpmn20.xml

then it is parsed correctly.

Hi, I have exactly the same problem.
I am trying to deploy a process programmatically via my application and I see a 'Nameless Deployment' at activiti-explorer and when I query ACT_RE_DEPLOYMENT table, there is this row :

ID_        NAME_   CATEGORY_ DEPLOY_TIME_
32813 NULL   NULL                2014-10-02 14:28:20.463

But there is nothing added to ACT_RE_PROCDEF table related with my deployed process.

Here is my code to deploy process
—————————————————————————-
@Override
public void createDeployment(byte[] bytes) {
XMLStreamReader xtr = null;
ByteArrayInputStream bis = new ByteArrayInputStream(bytes);
try {
   xtr = XMLInputFactory.newInstance().createXMLStreamReader(bis);
} catch (Exception e) {
   throw new ApplicationException(e.getMessage());
}
BpmnModel bpmnModel = new BpmnXMLConverter().convertToBpmnModel(xtr);

repositoryService.createDeployment().addBpmnModel("loan", bpmnModel).deploy();
}
——————————————————————————

I want to get the process (which will be deployed) from user input via screen, so parameter of function is "byte[] bytes".

I have also tried this code just to understand and investigate about programmatic process deployment but this gave me the same results:

———————————————————————————————————-
try {
   repositoryService.createDeployment()
     .addInputStream("xxx", new FileInputStream(new File("D:/Repos2/gelisk/process/src/main/resources/diagramsCreateOrgCustomerProcess.bpmn"))).deploy();
} catch (Exception e) {
   throw new ApplicationException(e.getMessage());
}

runtimeService.startProcessInstanceByKey("createOrgCustomer");
———————————————————————————————————

Am I doing something wrong ?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks..

Could you share your process definition?

Hi, sorry for the delay, I've been on a holiday.
Process definition is confidential information to the company that I work. But I've created a simple process diagram below, and I've experienced same problem. You can look at the process definition below.

I wanted to attach screen shot from activiti-explorer but I couldn't, only txt files are permitted I guess ???
