Model workflow, DictionaryException

[cytrix]

Hi,

I have a problem with my advanced workflow model.
When I start tomcat, i have a DictionaryException (namespace problem ?).

My workflow model :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

<model name="alwf:myModel" xmlns="http://www.alfresco.org/model/dictionary/1.0">

   </imports>
   
   <!– Introduction of new namespaces defined by this model –>

Hi,

In your "redaction" task, remove the following :

<property name="bpmackageActionGroup">
                     <default>add_package_item_actions</default>
               </property>

Ok, it works now 🙂 .

But I have another exception with my pooledactors (when I replace it with a simple actor-id, it works).

I have a fic2 group with 2 users in Alfresco. I try to get this group in the start state and use it in the "Redaction" task (the pooledactors swimlane is "redacteur").
Do you know where is the error ?

Thanks for your help !

[jayjayecl]

try the following :

- erase the "script" part of your process definition
- just use the following swimlane :

<pooledactors>#{people.getGroup('GROUP_fic2')}</pooledactors>

[cytrix]

try the following :

- erase the "script" part of your process definition
- just use the following swimlane :

<pooledactors>#{people.getGroup('GROUP_fic2')}</pooledactors>

Ok, it works (no exception now) ; but my group fic2 has 2 users (redactor1 and redactor2) and these users havn't tasks "Redaction".
Where is the task redaction ?

Thanks .

[cytrix]

It works !

Tasks are visible in "My Pooled Tasks" dashlet and not in "My Tasks To Do".
Thanks for your help .

[jayjayecl]

no problem…
I hate requesting reward points so I won't ask you to give me some (hehe …    )
Good luck !
