Description Sona Mala 2014-08-15 10:07:00 UTC
Description of problem:
I tried jBPM Designer with IE9 and it was not loaded. I was waiting for 5 minutes without any results.

When I tried different browsers (Chrome, Firefox) with same instance of BPMS then the designer works without problems.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
6.0.2 GA BPMS and 6.1.0 SNAPSHOT BPMS


How reproducible:
every time when you open any process from repository in IE9. It seems that IE10 and IE 11 works.

Actual results:
Designer is gray, loading dialog and partially loaded toolbar are present. 


Expected results:
Fully loaded Designer.


Additional info:
Please, add commits for both product's versions (6.0.2 and 6.1.x).

could you please attach any JS errors in the js error console? this would really help with making sure we are fixing the same things. thanks

Comment 4 Sona Mala 2014-09-18 07:45:59 UTC
Hi Tiho,
error from console is:

SCRIPT438: Object doesn't support property or method 'createContextualFragment'
ext-all.js, line 9 character 3354


Path to this js file is:
business-central.war/org.kie.workbench.KIEWebapp/lib/ext-2.0.2/ext-all.js

Comment 5 Kris Verlaenen 2015-02-06 12:52:23 UTC
No longer possible for 6.1, moving to 6.2

Comment 6 Jeremy Lindop 2015-02-24 16:35:05 UTC
I couldn't reproduce the console error reported by smala in Comment 4, but based on this, I found a solution to the incomplete loading of designer in IE9.

master:
https://github.com/droolsjbpm/jbpm-designer/commit/2c6c15ce8f2e1cea59bfe9309f40476d92150dc7

IE9 is not yet fully functional in IE9 - the ShapeRepository (left hand panel) does not allow the user to add tasks to a BP.

Comment 7 Jeremy Lindop 2015-09-24 14:12:08 UTC
Problem was caused by window.btoa and window.atob functions not being supported in IE versions <= IE9. Fixed by using our own implementation for these IE versions.

This fixes the problem using ShapeRepository and Saving BP's in IE9

6.3.x

We no longer support IE9, this will not be verified.
