How to Reset/Clean activiti database everytime I start

[retzer]

I need to activiti database to be reset everytime I start my program.

So, I want to ask about databaseSchemaUpdate, When the default schema false. It not reset. But if I use create-drop, when I terminate my program, it drops activiti database so when I start it will created a new one. But sometime in some cases if the database is not dropped it will cause error in the next start with "Table 'act_hi_procinst' already exists…table … already exists".

How to reset activiti database everytime I start my program?

Hi,

In doc:
http://activiti.org/userguide/index.html#databaseConfiguration

create-drop: Creates the schema when the process engine is being created and drops the schema when the process engine is being closed.
