You have two intermediate catching signal events (signalcevent1 and signalintermediatecatchevent1) that have no incoming sequence flows. Intermediate catching signal events are only "activated" (meaning that they wait for a signal, ie. a signal event subscription is created) if an execution enters the event. Since in your case the events have no incoming sequence flows, they will never be activated.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Tue, 13 Nov 2012 09:21:13 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/signal-events/m-p/99238#M68559 meyerd 2012-11-13T09:21:13Z Re: Signal Events https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/signal-events/m-p/99239#M68560 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Thanks, I got it working now.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Mon, 19 Nov 2012 23:44:20 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/signal-events/m-p/99239#M68560 plehal 2012-11-19T23:44:20Z
