      JBPM 4.4 with JDK 1.5.8

       

      Process built with Ant in Eclipse, where everybody is using the same JDK as JBoss.

       

      After deploying a very simple process, the process is executed in the BPM Console by selecting 'Start' in the Process Overview. It fails with this error:

      UnsupportedClassVersionError: Bad version number in .class file

      This is usually because the Java version the byte code was compiled with is different than what is being used to run it with. I know this, but cannot understand how it can be the case, as I've described above, the Java versions are made sure to be the same. Or at least, that's what I claim..

       

      Any clues where I might have gone off the path would be appreciated..

       

      Thanks,
