Problem using REST interface
satishpolasi Apr 18, 2011 3:07 AMHi,
I have my jbpm-console application running on one profle jbpm on 9090 port and my application running on another profile default on 8080 port. I run both the consoles on JbossEAP5.1 server.
I have created one bpmn process and deployed on to JBPM engine and I can login to jbpm-cosole application as admin/admin and start the process.
My requirement here is, I need to do the same process from my application running on 8080 port. For that i am making a call to this URL http://localhost:9090/gwt-console-server/rs/process/definition/{id}/new_instance to start the process. Where {id} is the processid(InstallSR) of my bpmn process.
Here is my code
PostMethod post = new PostMethod(http://localhost:9090/gwt-console-server/rs/process/definition/InstallSR/new_instance);
try {
post.addRequestHeader("Accept", "application/json");
int result = httpClient.executeMethod(post);
System.out.println("Response status code: " + result);
System.out.println("Response body: ");
System.out.println(post.getResponseBodyAsString());
} catch (HttpException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
post.releaseConnection();
}
When i call my above codel I see the following output as below and I don't see any thing printed on my human task servie or jbpm application server console.
Response status code: 200
Response body:
<html>
<head>
<title>HTTP 401</title> <!-- Do not remove -->
</head>
<body>
<form method="POST" action="j_security_check">
<center/>
<br><br>
<div style="font-family:sans-serif;border:1px solid black; width:270;padding:15px;">
<h2>BPM Console Server</h2>
<table with=250>
<tr>
<td>Username:</td>
<td><input type="text" name="j_username"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Password:</td>
<td><input type="password" name="j_password"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td align=right><input type="submit"/></td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
Can any one help me out on this, what I need to do to start a new process instance by calling rest url.
Thanks a lot in advance
Thanks,
Satish.
