Activiti 6.0 configuration issues

[ravisankar]

Downloaded activiti 6.0 war files (app, admin & rest) and deployed into tomcat server. Updated the below properties files (with oracle db information, userid and password) from the exploded war file directories

activiti-admin.properties, db.properties, activiti-app.properties.

 After the above changes, "activiti-app" and "activiti-admin" applications were accessible; created some user tasks from "activiti-app" and was able to see the same tasks in "activiti-admin" UI and from the oracle database as well. 

Question 1: Not able to access "activiti-rest" UI, it is throwing 404 error. Is there any other additional configurations required to make it work?

Question 2: When tried to upload a bpmn file (which was created from Activiti 5.22), it was throwing a below exception:

May 17, 2018 2:53:20 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapperValve invoke

SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet [dispatcher] in context with path [/activiti-admin] threw exception [Request processing failed; nested exception is com.activiti.service.activiti.exception.ActivitiServiceException: An error occured while calling Activiti: HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request] with root cause

com.activiti.service.activiti.exception.ActivitiServiceException: An error occured while calling Activiti: HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request

Can someone please provide your suggestions about how to overcome this error?

activiti-rest doesn't have a UI. It only contains rest endpoints for example you can list process definitions using the following endpoint

http://localhost:8080/activiti-rest/service/repository/process-definitions 

For more about the REST API check Activiti User Guide 

For you second question, seems that you tried to upload the process from the admin-app. Were you able to configure the admin-app to point to the activiti REST API (activiti-rest module) ? Should look something like

Hi Bassam,

Can we use same database for activiti-app and activiti-admin. I am not about to use same database. Please help me how you did it.

Another thing is I am not able to configure for cluster. Any advice helpful.

Thanks
