This is the same issue as http://forums.activiti.org/content/issue-5151-missing-activiti-process-validation-module-jar-file

I find myself in the same position as you and have been looking for a solution.

I've had a look back through the releases and it appears that activiti-process-validation.jar hasn't been included in the released zip file since at least 5.12 (I didn't check if it was required, only that it was missing from the zip).

The possible solutions appear to be:

- Wait until release 5.16, where it will be included, I have no idea when that is likely to be.
- Use Maven to download Activiti instead of using the zip file: http://www.activiti.org/community.html#maven.repository
- Build Activiti yourself and then either drop in your built module to the released zip, or replace the zip with your built release: http://docs.codehaus.org/display/ACT/Developers+Guide#DevelopersGuide-Buildingthedistribution
