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
  1. 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>
    
  2. The hibernate.cfg.xml file also tells the JBPM use the JTA 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 the DatabaseInitializer MBean instead.
  3. 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>
