Migrating from JBPM 3 to Activiti

[sreepathia]

Hi:
For the past few days i was exploring the web to migrate from JBPM3 to JBPM5. We dont have a way in JBPM to migrate to latest JBPM. i cam eacross the Activiti project while browsing around , it looks like we have a provision to migrate to latest Activiti from JBPM 3 including process definitions and process instance data. i am not still able to look at the reference for the same. can some one point me to the right docs on how to do the migration if it is possible using activiti

Thanks

It is interesting that there is some work no progress: http://processdevelopments.blogspot.com/2011/01/activiti-announces-jbpm-to-activiti.html
But i just can't find where to download the files. Should I build from source code? If so, how? Since it is not in trunk.

Only this is done and this is not fixed

I do not think a lot is done within Activiti. But Camunda has something http://fox.camunda.com/mvn/org/activiti/activiti-jbpm-migration

I cannot seem to find the source for it in https://svn.camunda.com/fox/ or activiti svn anymore but there still is something in http://svn.codehaus.org/activiti/activiti/tags/activiti-5.5/modules/activiti-jbpm-migration/

We have indeed started with some limited jbpm migration.
However, uptake was not as we expected and we didnt work on it since then.

Hi there !

Any news about this feature ? I'm very interested by an existing solution to migrate thousands of process instances.

It's an old post but that's proof I made some searches before posting

No, no news on this and we're not going to provide anything for this OOTB. I'm afraid you're on your own on this one…

thanks a lot for this quick answer
