From an initial look what you've posted looks in line with the MonthFormPropertyRenderer example (Creating a new form property in Activiti ). As a diagnostic check perhaps it's worth checking that those versions of the config files are the ones being read? To check whether those are the config files being used, maybe you could try taking parts of those files out and restarting to see whether you then get an error related what you've taken out (e.g. MonthFormPropertyRenderer entry and see if you get an error for that when you upload your file)? I also notice you've used a different package name from the examples - I wouldn't expect that to be the problem but it is worth checking.

Since the error is coming when you deploy the bar, it indicates the problem has nothing to do with the the form renderer, rather it is the form type that is causing the exception.

I see you have registered the form type so perhaps the class is not being found in your classpath.
