As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

After deploying a process which worked without problems in Activiti 5.6, Im getting following exception after attempting to complete the first task.
I am not a vaadin expert so I guess someone with more experience can tell what is happening here

I think i found answer to my problem in another thread

Hi,

The Activiti Explorer uses the form properties approach, and no longer the .form html definitions.
The formKey is still supported if you want to develop your own form rendering as described in the user guide.

Best regards,
