    1. CONSIDERATIONS

     

    Many people have difficulties to install jBPM in the Tomcat with Mysql or HSQLDB database. I wrote this manual based in this difficulties and Users and Developers forums.

     

    All information describes in this document can be found in the JBoss jBPM official web site, Users and Developers Forums and JBoss official web site.

     

    I would like to thanks Tom Baeyens, Jan-Philipp Bolle, Stephane Carrez and all persons that contributed with questions. All credits goes to the authors.

     

    2. TEST ENVIRONMENT

     

    2.1. Systems

     

    • Operation System Windows XP

     

     

     

     

     

    2.2.     Libraries

     

     

     

    2.3.     Environment Variables

     

    These are the variable that must be set on operations system:

    • ANT_HOME - Root Ant Directory

    • JAVA_HOME - Root Java SDK Directory

    • Include the follow on variable PATH:

    • JAVA_HOME/bin

     

    3. JBoss jBPM, Tomcat and MySQL

     

    To use the JBoss jBPM example, follow the steps:

     

    3.1.     Root Directory

     

    Unzip the jboss-jbpm-2.zip in the folder of your choice.  I considered this folder as .

     

    3.2.     Alter <JBPM_HOME>/build.properties

     

    Remove all code and insert:

     

    • jbpm.home=<JBPM_HOME>

    • ant.home=<ANT_HOME>

    • jboss.home=

    • jbpm.pde=

     

    , than:

     

    jboss.home and jbpm.pde can be empty.

     

    3.3.     Alter <JBPM_HOME>/core/schema.generation.properties

     

    Remove all code and insert:

     

    hibernate.dialect=net.sf.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect

     

    hibernate.connection.driver_class=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

     

    hibernate.query.substitutions=true=1, false=0

     

    hibernate.connection.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/jbpm

     

    hibernate.connection.username= is the password of that user on database.

     

    3.4.     Alter <JBPM_HOME>/web/src/jbpm.war/WEB-INF/classes/jbpm.properties

     

    Remove all code and insert:

     

    jbpm.log.stdout=off

     

    hibernate.dialect=net.sf.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect

     

    hibernate.connection.driver_class=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

     

    hibernate.query.substitutions=true=1, false=0

     

    hibernate.connection.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/jbpm

     

    hibernate.connection.username= is the password of that user on database.

     

    3.5.     Alter <JBPM_HOME>/core/src/java/org/jbpm/model/definition/impl/DelegationImpl.hbm.xml

     

    Replace

    Replace 

     

     

     

     

    3.7.     Alter <JBPM_HOME>/core/src/java/org/jbpm/persistence/hibernate/HibernateSession.java

     

    Replace

     

    private static final String latestDefinitionQuery = "select d " 

     

       + "from d in class org.jbpm.model.definition.impl.DefinitionImpl "

     

       + "where d.name = ? "

     

       + " and d.version = ( " 

     

       + " select max(d2.version) "

     

       + " from d2 in class org.jbpm.model.definition.impl.DefinitionImpl "

     

       + " where d2.name = d.name )";

     

     

    to

     

    private static final String latestDefinitionQuery = "select d "

     

       + "from d in class org.jbpm.model.definition.impl.DefinitionImpl "

     

       + "where d.name = ? "

     

       + " order by d.version desc ";
