Deploying via Process Designer and manually

[kerkira67]

Hi,

I am writing and deploying some workflow test definitions  using eclipse jBPM plugin. For some of them deployment fails with the following error message:
Exception happened while deploying

I have also tried to manually deploy the definitions. In order to do that I created the file workflow-bootstrap-context.xml in the %ALFRESCO_HOME%\jboss\server\default\conf\alfresco\extension\bootstrap directory. Here is the content of the file:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE beans PUBLIC '-//SPRING//DTD BEAN//EN' 'http://www.springframework.org/dtd/spring-beans.dtd'>

<beans>

<bean id="myworkflows.workflowBootstrap" parent="workflowDeployer">
   <property name="workflowDefinitions">
      <list>
         <props>
            <prop key="engineId">jbpm</prop>
            <prop key="location">alfresco/workflow/NegoziazioneCommesse.xml</prop>
            <prop key="mimetype">text/xml</prop>
         </props>
      </list>
   </property>
</bean>

</beans>

I put the NegoziazioneCommesse.xml file under %ALFRESCO_HOME%\jboss\server\default\conf\alfresco\workflow.
Here is the content of the file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<process-definition

   <state name="Stato intermedio">
      <transition name="" to="Fine">
      </transition>
   </state>
   <end-state name="Fine"></end-state>
</process-definition>

When starting alfresco, I get the following error message:

14:01:50,390 ERROR [ContextLoader] Context initialization failed

Where do I mistake?

Thank you very much

Thanks Roberto.

I'll raise an issue to either report missing start task, or allow no start task.
