Activiti Modeller doesn't run on manual tomcat start

[sascha1]

Hi,

when I start h2 and tomcat manual and not using ant demo.start activiti-modeler doesn't work. All other apps seem to work well. So what can I do to get this working? What's the problem?

Hi,

What doesn't work? Which browser are you using?

I am using ff5.

The problems seem to occur because i moved the apache-tomcat directory. I am always getting:

ROOT: ../workspace/activiti-modeler-examples
[INFO] Initializing Root Directory…
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Path does not point to a directory.
at com.signavio.warehouse.directory.business.FsDirectory.<init>(FsDirectory.java:71)
…
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Path does not point to a directory.

        ….
… 25 more

I tried ../ - ../../../../ in configuration.properties of activiti-modeler and I placed workspace/activiti-modeler-examples on differents places but I am always getting the exception.

I investigated further on this. The current path of the tomcat depends on from where the tomcat is started. Therefore it is very hard to figure out how to correctly set fileSystemRootDirectory in configuration.properties of activiti-modeler.

Overall in my point of view Signavio should work on this!

Sorry the issues discussed there - I think - don't have anything to do with the issues above.

My problem just was that the workspace on filesystem couldn't be found. Sometimes I had some strange behavior I am not able to relate to afterwards - catalina.out showed no Exception but localhost ….log did and so on …
