7.8. Deploying a Process Definition

Check that the server is running.
Activate a process archive by going to the JBPM Graphical Editor's Deployment tab.
Note
Sometimes you will only need to deploy the processdefinition.xml file but, most often, you will be deploying other types of artifacts as well, such as task forms.
Deploy the definition using one of these methods:
1. Using JBoss Developer Studio , configure the upload servlet used by the deployer. Next, click the Deploy Process Archive button. This is visible in the Deployment view.
2. Using the DeployProcessToServer JBPM ant task.
3. Save the deployment to a local .par file from the Deployment view. Next, activate the archive using the JBPM console. (This requires that you have administration privileges.)
