Deploying Kickstart process into Alfresco

[mwelter]

Good afternoon everybody,

I am new to the Activiti / Alfresco world & I have just finished creating a Kickstart online (simple) workflow in Eclipse Juno and I was able to export it successfully to the project target folder where it has successfully created a handful of .XML files, including the BPMN20.XML file as required.  I was able to import the BPMN20.xml file into http://activiti.alfresco.com as I wanted to see the flow chart, which displayed nicely as well.

The problem I have is when I try to deploy it to our instance of Alfresco with the CMIS exporter, I get the following error:

Error while exporting process: org.apache.chemistry.opencmis.commons.exceptions.CmisObjectNotFoundException: Not Found

The Alfresco version we are running is:
Alfresco Enterprise v4.1.5(r52063-b80) schema 5120
Spring Surf and Spring WebScripts - v1.2.0(Release 1268)
Operating system Centos 6.5

Is anyone able to assist / point me in the right direction ?  Please let me know if you need any other information.

Thanks & Regards,

That exception isn't very helpful :s

How are you trying to deploy it? Are you putting it in the Data Dictionary through CMIS?

Good day,
I have the same problem and the same level of knowledge about Alfresco.
Alfresco Community 4.2.f for Win64 is installed and works properly to my understanding.
Eclipse (Mars) and Activity 5.18 are installed as well.
Trying to make simple project - one form and one review step (the very beginning of presentation with "Barcelona project") I succeeded in exporting to target directory, but cmis export target gave the same error. No idea what happened. Will be glad to hear any advices.

Hi,
Could you provide some stacktrace information from your log file?

[kritas]

Hi, sorry for delay in answer. The only log file modified during my attempt to make export renamed and attached as log.txt. File was located in user\workspace\.metadata and named .log.
Is it helpful? Or I need to provide more information?
Thank's

acoring to your log:
<code>
org.apache.chemistry.opencmis.commons.exceptions.CmisObjectNotFoundException: Not Found
at ……
at org.activiti.designer.kickstart.eclipse.navigator.CmisUtil.getFolderByPath(CmisUtil.java:303)
</code>

it seems it's trying to obtain a folder by path and it cannot be found.
please check the desired folder path and make sure it exists in the repository where you're trying to upload to.

ок, thanks, I'll try

Don't forget to let the community know the result of your investigation.

To be sure I took another PC, made new installation of Alfresco and Eclipse, repeated my project, which is similar to the beginning of hiring project, and got the same mistake.
It seems I need to educate myself a little bit because i don't know where I need to look getting in mind your advise.

I am also new to Activiti Kickstart   I have just finished creating a Kickstart online (simple) workflow in Eclipse Kepler and I was able to export it successfully to the project target folder where it has successfully created a handful of .XML files, including the BPMN20.XML file as required. Can someone advise me how to deploy this locally to see the results? Also please let me know how to run the project.
