Workflow Deployment

[mchernecki]

I am trying to deploy a workflow via JBoss jBPM Process Designer . The http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/WorkflowAdministration guide gives the following instructions.

Deploying via JBoss jBPM Process Designer
JBoss jBPM Process Designer allows a process definition to be saved to a process archive file or deployed directly to an existing server. Alfresco has provided support to allow deployment directly to Alfresco.

1. Ensure the Alfresco Server is up and running
2. From the Deployment Tab enter:
   1. Server Name = machine name where Alfresco is installed
   2. Server Port = port number assigned to Alfresco (default: 8080)
   3. Server Deployer = /alfresco/jbpm/deployprocess
3. Press Test Connection…
4. If all OK, press Deploy Process Archive…
If deployed successfully, the process definition is now available for use by Alfresco. Please note, there is no need to restart the Alfresco server in order to activate the new deployed process definition. This allows quick turn-around testing whilst developing new process definitions via the JBoss jBPM Process Designer.


I can only see Server Name and Server Port. There is no Server Deployer under the Deployment tab. Without this I get and error http://alfresco:8080/jbpm test connection failed.

Any idea how I can specify the deployer without haaving a place to enter it?

Thanks
Mike

I wonder if you're using the JBoss IDE plug-in - the included process designer does not have the server deployer option.

Take a look at http://forums.alfresco.com/viewtopic.php?t=3945.

That appears to be my problem. I will look into installing the plugin into eclipse rather than the JBoss IDE.

Thanks
