Is this a bug?

Is there a fix or workaround?

Can you check if there is a mybatis-3.0.1.jar in one of the folders:
* $distro/examples/activiti-engine-examples/libs-runtime
* $distro/examples/activiti-engine-examples/libs-test

If not, something went wrong while downloading dependencies for the engine. The easiest way to fix this is to delete the two folders (libs-rumtime and libs-test) and run the demo.setup again.

I too am getting this error in my Windows 7 environment.  However the first error I received was after running ant in the setup directory:

h2.start:

db.create.engine:

BUILD FAILED
c:\Apps\activiti\setup\build.xml:180: Class Not Found: JDBC driver com.mysql.jdb
c.Driver could not be loaded

After downloading mysql-connector-java-5.1.13-bin.jar to activiti\examples\activiti-engine-examples\libs-runtime I was able to move on to the error in this forum.  Am I doing something wrong?

Hi,

Can you try to delete the folowing folders:
* $distro/examples/activiti-engine-examples/libs-runtime
* $distro/examples/activiti-engine-examples/libs-test

And run the setup again?

[dukethrash]

Back to issue #1 when I do that.

examples.get.libs.all:

db.get.libs:

h2.install:

internal.classpath.libs:

internal.taskdef.launch:

h2.start:

db.create.engine:

BUILD FAILED
c:\Apps\activiti\setup\build.xml:180: Class Not Found: JDBC driver com.mysql.jdbc.Driver could not be loaded
