7.6. Configuring the JBPM
The configuration settings for the JBoss Business Process Manager are stored in three files within the
SOA_ROOT/jboss-as/server/PROFILE/deploy/jbpm.esb/
directory:
jbpm.cfg.xml
hibernate.cfg.xml
jbpm.mail.templates.xml
- The
jbpm.cfg.xml
file is set to tell the JBPM to use the JTA Transaction Manager:<service name="persistence"> <factory> <bean class="org.jbpm.persistence.jta.JtaDbPersistenceServiceFactory"> <property name="isTransactionEnabled"><false/></property> <property name="isCurrentSessionEnabled"><true/></property> <!--property name="sessionFactoryJndiName"> <string value="java:/myHibSessFactJndiName" /> </property--> </bean> </factory> </service>
- The
hibernate.cfg.xml
file also tells the JBPM use theJTA Transaction Manager
:<!-- JTA transaction properties (begin) --> <property name="jta.UserTransaction">UserTransaction</property> <property name="hibernate.current_session_context_class">jta</property> <property name="hibernate.transaction.factory_class">org.hibernate.transaction.JTATransactionFactory</property> <property name="hibernate.transaction.manager_lookup_class">org.hibernate.transaction.JBossTransactionManagerLookup</property> <!-- JTA transaction properties (end) -->
Note
Do not use Hibernate to create the database schema. Use theDatabaseInitializer
MBean instead. - The
jbpm.mail.templates.xml
file contains the following:jboss-as ]$ cat server/default/deploy/jbpm.esb/jbpm.mail.templates.xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <mail-templates> <variable name="taskListBaseURL" value="http://localhost:8080/jbpm-console/app/task.jsf?id=" /> <mail-template name='task-assign'> <actors>${taskInstance.actorId}</actors> <subject>Task notification: ${taskInstance.name}</subject> <text><![CDATA[Hi ${taskInstance.actorId}, Task '${taskInstance.name}' has been assigned to you. Go for it: ${taskListBaseURL}${taskInstance.id} Sent by jBPM]]></text> </mail-template> <mail-template name='task-reminder'> <actors>${taskInstance.actorId}</actors> <subject>Task reminder: ${taskInstance.name}</subject> <text><![CDATA[Hey ${taskInstance.actorId}, Do not forget about task '${taskInstance.name}'. Get going: ${taskListBaseURL}${taskInstance.id} Sent by jBPM]]></text> </mail-template> </mail-templates>
