Hello,

you should change the version of activiti in the pom.xml

from:
<activiti-version>5.9</activiti-version>

to:
<activiti-version>5.10</activiti-version>

Cheers

That took care of it.

Thank you!

I've got the same problem, so I'm upping this old thread.
For me is:

org.activiti.engine.ActivitiWrongDbException: version mismatch: activiti library version is '5.13', db version is 5.12 Hint: Set In the bpmn-examples project I set the "databaseSchemaUpdate" property to "true" in the activiti.cfg.xml, but I am still seeing this error.

In the [font=courier]pom.xml[/font] of my eclipse-activiti project (let me know if this is the correct file) I tried to correct the activiti version.
Neither 5.12 and 5.13 works.

What am I missing?
Any help vould be appreciated.
hanks.

From my point of view changing version in pom file won't help.

It seems that DB structures have version 5.12. Libraries which want to work with DB have version 5.13. This to things have to be sync.
Possibilities:
1. use 5.12 activiti libraries
2. upgrade DB structures to 5.13 (set property databaseSchemaUpdate to true in the activiti.cfg.xml which should update database automatically)

I'm having this trouble as well. The current version of Activiti DB is 5.17, but the book source code is still at 5.9. I tried setting databaseSchemaUpdate to true and to create-drop. Neither helps. Do I really have to go back to the 5.9 libraries. Can't someone update the book's source code? I've been struggling with this for two days.

The book is now pretty old, I don't think it will follow any new versions of Activiti.

What are you trying to do and how is it failing?
