Hi,
First of all, kudos to the Activiti team for a great BPM software. After researching several BPM softwares we decided to go with Activiti.
So as you might have guessed I am new to Activiti Engine and running into a issue with an initial POC.
I have deployed the out of the box activiti-explorer and activiti REST application, (activiti version 5.15.1) on Tomcat with a MySQL DB on Google Compute Engine.
I am writing a client application which talks to activiti engine through the REST API (cool REST support !!). But I am facing an intermittent issue with the REST call, it gets stuck and my client times out.
When this happens on the server side access logs I see the first request is returned for the basic authentication (http status code 401) and the second request after authentication is never completed.
So in successful secenario I see both requests.
"GET /activiti-rest/service/repository/process-definitions HTTP/1.1" 401 73
"GET /activiti-rest/service/repository/process-definitions HTTP/1.1" 6992
And an error scenario looks like this, (second request is not full filled)
"GET /activiti-rest/service/repository/process-definitions HTTP/1.1" 401 73
When this happens I don't see any errors on the tomcat logs, once I restart the tomcat everything works fine till the time it get stuck again.
I do get an error while restarting tomcat (not sure it is related to the above error)
SEVERE: Exception loading sessions from persistent storage
java.io.WriteAbortedException: writing aborted; java.io.NotSerializableException: org.activiti.workflow.simple.converter.json.SimpleWorkflowJsonConverter

Any ideas?
Also is there an easy way to turn off Basic Authentication in REST call? I wanted to try that to see if this goes way.
Thanks
