Mail service task

agiledevpro

Hi,

I'm trying to create a process which sends an email to a recipient using the xml defined on activiti.org (Email Task). But when I start my process from activiti I get an error saying "Warining! unknown property is used in expression: ${recipient}".

I've added users by using telnet.

Have I missed something?

Thanks

Hi,
Could you create jUnit test for it please?

Hi Martin,

I run a JUnit test and it failed at ProcessInstance processInstance = runtimeService.startProcessInstanceByKey("simpleEmailProcess");
The error message is java.lang.NullPointerException.

"simpleEmailProcess" is the name of the process.

I've attached my bpmn20.xml file. Maybe I've missunderstood how to use tasks?

Thanks

I also want the mail to be sent to a gmail account, is this possible without configuring an email client?

Thank you

Hi,

To send emails -> you have to configure process engine.
Where did you get null pointer exception?
Could you attach your jUnit test?

Hi,

What do you mean when you say "configure process engine"? - In my activiti.cfg.xml I've added properties for the mail server, do I need to do something else in order to configure the process engine?

I get null pointer exception in my test class called RiskReportTest in the method "testInstance" when startProcessInstanceBykey is called:

"ProcessInstance processInstance = runtimeService.startProcessInstanceByKey("simpleEmailProcess");"

Thank you

Hi,

It works now after adding my bpmn20.xml and cfg.xml to resources in my project
