If you're using the demo-setup, you should beware what config-file you edit. The config-file is populated from the properties-file, and packaged in a JAR and copied to /WEB-INF/lib/ of the activiti-rest webapp (activiti.cfg.jar). This is where you should alter it (or look for the file that is used to generate the activiti.cfg.xml file, based on the build.properties and adjust that one).
