Are you able to join irc ( http://www.jboss.org/jbpm/irc )?
>> Does it show none at all or does it still show the default Log and Email ones?
It shows the default "Log" and "Email" ones.
>> Have you tried closing all the editor tabs and cleaning + refreshing your project?
Yes, just tried that. Same result.
>> Maybe even go to the point of closing/reopening your project in eclipse or deleting the project (do not delete on the actual file system ) and then re-importing it back?
Yes, just did that. Didn't change anyting.
>> Are the new workitems not showing up for reopened existing processes as well as when creating a brand new process?
They're not showing up for any processes, new or old.
>> Are you creating the processes in src/main/resources directory?
Yes.
>> Have you been able to test the same thing on another machine?
Yes, I tried it on my main development machine (Windows 7) and it worked. But jBPM doesn't work fully on that machine, so it's not really a complete solution.
>> Do you have "Build project automatically" turned off by chance?
Nope, turned on.
>> Are you creating your processes in a source folder?
In the src/main/resources folder.
Thanks for all the troubleshooting tips. I doubt we'll be able to get this working on Windows Server 2003. It's probably not an OS you really target.
Sorry for all the trouble
Will try to to see if we have a machine running win server 2003 in our lab and test it out even tho I think that should not really be an issue. It's more likely your VM setup where your drools.rulebase.conf file is not overwriting defaults for some reason.
Go ahead and raise a jBPM Jira please.
Created the JIRA (JBPM-3364).
Actually, I spoke too soon on the Windows 7 version. The custom nodes appear and I can use them in a workflow. But after I save and close it, trying to open it again raises an exception and a blank workflow is shown. But I assume that's a separate issue.
Thanks for all the support!
