Installation problem Activiti 5.11

[jbbond]

Hi,

I am trying to install Activiti 5.11 and get the following error. I have tried a few times but no success.

Ehm, it says that it can't reach your standalone local H2 database. Do you have one running?

Best regards,

[logic3]

I thought it starts automatically when I run the tomcat after coping the war files.  Is there any way to start the database ?

cheers

[trademak]

That's true for the Activiti Explorer, because it uses an in-memory database by default. For the REST app that's not true, this uses a standalone H2 database by default and you have to install and start it yourself. You can of course also change the db config of the REST API, but it doesn't make a lot of sense to use an in-memory database for the REST app.

Best regards,

[jbbond]

Thanks guys.
I will try installing standalone H2 database for the REST and see if this helps. Otherwise, i do not see any other solution

[jbbond]

I followed the instruction (http://bpmn20inaction.blogspot.co.uk/) and installed the h2 database but still not success
