Description Ivo Bek 2014-04-29 06:59:19 UTC
Description of problem:

When I create a BPMN2 process definition in BPMN Designer and I open Process Sources, an empty dialog window will appear without any line BPMN2 code. JSON, SVG, and ERD are generated well.

In the server log, I see the following error:

ERROR [org.jbpm.designer.web.server.UUIDBasedRepositoryServlet] (http-localhost/127.0.0.1:8080-2) Error transforming to XML : null

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Also when I download BPMN2 file via the export button on the Process Sources dialog, the file is empty as well.

Probably you will not be able to reproduce it. I made some unknown changes when I put BPMS to such state that nothing in BPMN Designer worked (even save of the process). I attached stacktraces which might help you find the root causes.

After a restart it started working, so it would not help to send you the BPMS itself.

Comment 3 Kris Verlaenen 2014-04-29 23:05:23 UTC
The exception only tells us that the BPMNDI section of the process was missing on load, it doesn't tell us why that might be.  Since this might be due to these unknown changes, not sure there's much we can do at this point.

Please reopen if the issue occurs again.

I have the same problem.
This is a blocking issue for me.

Hi Vincenzo,

would you happen to know the steps to reproduce the issue?

E.g. Did you create a new project in a new repo? what where the names used? what activities did you add onto the canvas etc.?

Thank you.
Marek

Hi Marek,
I think it could be considered as a duplicate of Bug 1116824 I committed today with a more precise description.

Unfortunally, this is just one of the problems I'm experiencing with the two modelers (Eclipse plugin and KIE Workbench ones).

Something similar (i.e. blank process sources) happens for instance when I try to import a diagram from Eclipse to KIE (and viceversa too), in which case I can see that the used XML formats are quite different (the KIE Modeler changes item definition IDs, loses items names and moves items and relations arbitrarily throughout the diagram).

I'm starting to wonder if someone is actually really using the two modelers (I mean exchanging diagrams between them) in a professional context and if this is the case, which jBPMN version they are using.

I'd ask also you if these problems/bugs with the 6.1 release are going to be solved or I shoud change technology (at least for the modeling part of the work) since I'd need a modeler to propose to my customers and eventually, if it's needed, another one to give to my develpers.

Thank you for your answers.
Vincenzo
