How to use activiti error start event

[bdenes]

I have an activiti workflow. How can I jump to an error start event from a task?

As the user guide states, this is not possible:

An error start event can be used to trigger an event subprocess. An error start event cannot be used for starting a process instance.

You can use a catching-error event on your subprocess and make it fire a message-event. That, the process you want to see started on error, has to have a message-start event. Check out user guide on details not that.
