Repository lockup when loading workflow definition

ianw — Mon, 06 Mar 2017 17:35:47 GMT

I'm in the process of upgrading from 4.2 to 5.1. The database, repository, share and Solr are all on separate machines.The problem I'm having is that the repository does not complete starting up if a certain workflow is configured. The last few lines of the log file are:2017-03-06 17:11:30,041 INFO

Have you tried to comment your workflow deployer on Spring and restart?

I'm not sure that your problem depends by the workflow.

Yes, and then the repository starts without problem.

Currently the workflow is configured in tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension/...

Not a fix, but a workaround; If the workflow is packaged in an amp file then the repository starts without any problems, go figure!
