Alfresco Workflows and Eclipse

wit

Hi, I'm beginner in Alfresco. I know there is possibility to create Workflows in with Eclipse jBPM Process Designer Plugin - and then integrate them into Alfresco.

Ok, I have installed that plugin, wrote some workflow - but how can I get it into Alfresco? I have read all different manuals - but haven't find solution

I don't ask for big explanation, but for link to it.

You should be able to deploy directly: http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/WorkflowAdministration#Deploying_via_JBoss_jBPM_Process_Designer
or manually: http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/WorkflowAdministration#Manually_deploying_a_jPDL_XML_file_or_Process_Archive

ok, finally I understand. I saw "Deployment tab" in some descriptions…

In some video demonstration http://docs.jboss.com/jbpm/v3/demos/mov + ies/jbpm-overview.htm (Please bind mov + ies together to see link - that work is disallowed here)
I can see Diagram, Swimline, Deployment, Design, Source tabs in GPD editor, but I have only Diagram, Source - sure I can't export my Workflow to Alfresco via Deployment tab - if I haven't it!

It is a problem of my jBPM plugin or Eclipse version?

I have installed jBPM 3.0 as site file, and then manually copied 3.1.2 version files to Eclipse. Eclipse version is 3.1.1.

wit

I have upgraded jBPM to 3.08 - now I can see Diagram, Swimline, Design, Source tabs - but still no Deployment tab!

wit

Finally!!! I'm happy - Deployment tab in 3.09.2!!!

)

Now I have new questions:

1. Here sentence from one presentation: "View workflow image within Alfresco" - how it is possible?

2. I have added some testing workflow and now I can see it in selection of Advanced Workflows - but I created it only for testing purposes - how can I delete it? Only manually - removing files?

I've downloaded plug-in here: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=70542&package_id=116692
As I told, for me version 3.0.9.2 was Ok. (site, not a feature).
, than run Eclipse, go to Help -> Software Updates -> Find and Install… , here is insallation process: http://docs.jboss.com/jbpm/v3/gpd/installation.html

Here is some using video example:

2. I have added some testing workflow and now I can see it in selection of Advanced Workflows - but I created it only for testing purposes - how can I delete it? Only manually - removing files?

You can undeploy your definitions via the workflow console:
/alfresco/faces/jsp/admin/workflow-console.jsp

undeploy definition name jbpm$simple‍

Where "simple" is the name of the deployed workflow.

I haven't figured out if there any files involved somewhere.

Hi,

we are new to Alfersco.
I was trying to create custom workflow using JBPM console in Eclipse.

I did the following:
1). i downloaded jPDL Suite 3.2.3 suite.
2). manually pasted org.jbpm.gd.jpdl_3.1.3.SP2.jar in

\Ecllipse\plugins folder.
3). i did following in Eclipse
      a). i got JBossJBPM in windows/preferences
      b). i set Runtime Locations (in JBossJBPM) to a place where i extracted the JPDL suite
4). i created a process designer in eclipse.
5). now i did the following for deployment:
     a).     server name : localhost
     b).      server port : 8080
     c). server deployer : /alfresco
     d). click Test Connection - successful
     e). click Deploy Process Archive

I did the above steps. but i could not see any custom workflow in algfresco workflow listing.
could you please tell me, how to proceed to get the workflow in alfresco ?

Thank you.

Hansraj

Currently i am using eclipse europa version but swimlanes tab isn't visible…. can anyone of you tell me the exact version of eclipse and jBPM cobination that works perfectly fine?

I guess i am not getting the right eclipse version to work with. Please help.

Thanks.

I am missing all the tabs except Diagram and Source. I followed the instructions at http://docs.jboss.com/jbpm/v4/userguide/html_single/#graphicalprocessdesigner to install the graphical designer in eclipse but there is no deployment tab. Do I have to use an old version of eclipse and an old version of jboss to get this to work?

viralshah

I got it working with Eclipse 3.4 ( Ganymede ) & jbpm-3.3.0.GA.

Hi ckrishna4,

Your issue does not appear to be directly related to this topic ? Please create a new post (under the "Content Modeling" forum) with additional details including the content model that you are trying to activate and additional details (eg. exact test steps and version of Alfresco, including release/build #).

Thanks,
Jan
