I am also encountering this problem when i am running both activiti-explorer and activiti-rest connecting to the same postgresql database. It seems to work fine when i am running only activiti-explorer….

Hi ..
Solved my problem . I removed all the demo processes and demo report from activiti explorer . I found this solution while searching forum for the same but the solution was given for activiti 5.12 .
It was supposed this bug must be fixed in 5.12.1 .

Indeed. The issue was resolved for 5.12.1.

(but to add, it wasn't a bug, more of a bad choice of configs)

I am using 5.12.1 at the moment. Both activiti-explorer & activiti-rest works fine after I turn off the following property.

<code>
<property name="createDemoProcessDefinitions" value="false" />
<property name="createDemoModels" value="false" />
<property name="generateReportData" value="false" />
</code>

Currently, i will encounter the following errors in activiti-rest if i enable those demo processes.
<code>
org.activiti.engine.ActivitiIllegalArgumentException: unknown type 'user' approver
</code>

Is there any workaround for this issue?

Thank you.

Yeah, the solution is to mimic the process engine config on the rest server too.

But that's probably not very userfriendly … might need to look into a lazy evaluation scheme to fix this properly
