Running activiti engine standalone

Hi,

I was able to successfully deploy and run a simple process using the JUNIT framework for activiti. I am trying to create a standalone application to run the same. Please let me know what I am missing here. Thanks!

//Working JUNIT test case:

public class ProcessTestMyProcess {

   private String filename = "C:\\junoDataProtectionWsp\\DataProtectionWorkflow\\src\\" +
         "main\\resources\\diagrams\\DataProtectionWorkflow.bpmn";

   @Rule
   public ActivitiRule activitiRule = new ActivitiRule();

   @Test
   public void startProcess() throws Exception {
      try {
         RepositoryService repositoryService = activitiRule.getRepositoryService();
         repositoryService.createDeployment().addInputStream("dataProtectionProcess.bpmn20.xml",
               new FileInputStream(filename)).deploy();
         RuntimeService runtimeService = activitiRule.getRuntimeService();

         ProcessInstance processInstance = runtimeService.startProcessInstanceByKey("dataProtectionProcess");
         assertNotNull(processInstance.getId());
         System.out.println("Test execution: id: " + processInstance.getId() + " "
         + processInstance.getProcessDefinitionId());
         
      } catch (Exception e) {
         System.out.println("Error: " + e.toString());
         e.printStackTrace();
      }
   }
}

// Standalone appliaction  - Error trying to deploy activiti engine

           .setDatabaseSchemaUpdate("create-drop")
           .setJobExecutorActivate(true)
           .buildProcessEngine();

      /* Deploy the xml file. */
      //
      processEngine.getRepositoryService().createDeployment().addInputStream("dataProtectionProcess.bpmn20.xml",
            new FileInputStream("C:\\junoDataProtectionWsp\\DataProtectionWorkflow\\src\\" +

      /* Start the process by id. */
      ProcessInstance processInstance = processEngine.getRuntimeService().startProcessInstanceByKey("dataProtectionProcess");

      System.out.println("Test execution: id: " + processInstance.getId() + " "
      + processInstance.getProcessDefinitionId());
   
      } catch (Exception e) {
         e.printStackTrace();
      }

   }
}

Here's the error when I try running the standalone application:
"usage: java org.activiti.engine.impl.juel.Builder <expression string>"

Sorry, my bad. I was giving the wrong path. Fixed now.
