After Boundary Time in Subprocess, not sending mail

[rutenioh]

Hello,
I am developing with activiti 5.10 and I am testing boundary timers in subprocess.
My surprise is when the timer ends, there is a Mail Task that is not working because the mail doesn't send to the address.

This is the process, the first mail task is only for testing if the mail server works. I receive this mail correctly.

Am I doing something wrong?

Hi,

Could you create jUnit test please?

I create the jUnit test but it is very simple. I only start the process, it does not need any more.
I have created the project but I can not upload anything in zip type so I upload the process and the test in txt type.
To test it, only change the mail address.

Database is Oracle.

[vasile_dirla]

just rename the zip extension to txt and write that in your post.
(it's more useful to have the full zip file with the pom file, structure, etc.. so we just run it and see what's happening)

[rutenioh]

Thank you very much!!

[martin_grofcik]

Use H2 instead of oracle, please.

I also would like to comment that Activiti 5.10 is really old. So it would be good to upgrade to a more recent version of Activiti.

Best regards,

Hello,
I test with h2 and with Activiti 5.17.
The result is the same, only sends the first mail but the second after timer does not.

[rutenioh]

I have observed an unusual behaviour when boundary timers and mail tasks are involved.
For instance, I make a process with a User Task, a boundary timer in it and a mail task after.
The result is process continue without send the mail…

Do you have the same problem??

[martin_grofcik]

Hi,

Attach the test project.

Martin
