Errors deploying xml file from Signavio editor

[fab]

Hello,
I can deploy the examples delivered with Activiti. But when I create a simple process in Signavio and try to deploy it in a TestCase (using the @ProcessDeclared), I have the following errors :

org.activiti.ActivitiException: couldn't parse InputStream: cvc-elt.1: Cannot find the declaration of element 'definitions'.
[…]
Caused by: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-elt.1: Cannot find the declaration of element 'definitions'.
   at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.util.ErrorHandlerWrapper.createSAXParseException(ErrorHandlerWrapper.java:195)
‍‍‍‍‍

.

In fact the definitions part of the .bpm20.xml file generated by Signavio is different from the one in the Activiti examples:

Signavio :

<definitions id="oryx_d70f7235-8c24-43f5-bce4-5c2bb2b01b08" 
         typeLanguage="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" 
         expressionLanguage="http://www.w3.org/1999/XPath" 
         targetNamespace="http://www.omg.org/bpmn20" 
         xmlns="http://schema.omg.org/spec/BPMN/2.0" 
         xmlns:bpmndi="http://bpmndi.org">‍‍‍‍‍‍

Activiti Examples :

<definitions id="definitions"
             typeLanguage="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
             expressionLanguage="http://www.w3.org/1999/XPath"
             targetNamespace="http://activiti.org/bpmn20" 
             xmlns="http://www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/20100524/MODEL"
             xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
             xmlns:activiti="http://activiti.org/bpmn-extensions">‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I I simply change in my signavio xml file the definitions and put the ones taken in the activiti examples, then I begin having lots of errors linked to the xml format.
For example :

org.activiti.ActivitiException: couldn't parse InputStream: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'flowElementRef'. One of '{"http://www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/20100524/MODEL':documentation, "http://www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/20100524/MODEL':extensionElements, "http://www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/20100524/MODEL':partitionElement, "http://www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/20100524/MODEL':flowNodeRef, "http://www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/20100524/MODEL':childLaneSet}' is expected.‍

So my questions are :
- Is my install of Signavio not good ?
- Is there somewhere an option in Signavio modeler to indicate that we want "Activiti compatible" xml ?
- Am I wrong somewhere ?

Thanks for your anwsers !

Problem is now solved with the new alpha4 version.

Correct 🙂

Then alpha3 engine was BPMN 2.0 final only, while we introduced a BPMN 2.0 beta compatibility in alpha 4 (the editor produces beta models currently)
