Process not showing on cockpit

Camunda 7 Topics Discussion & Questions

Hi,

I know it might sound very familiar as I have also seen a number of posts regarding this issue but unfortunately I already have the solutions mentioned in those posts, in my project. So I’m just listing down what I did and the probable fixes that I found online.

I created an application to test “mail-poll” functionality, it works from junit and downloads the attachments in a folder inside my project.
When I deployed my war file, there is no error at all.

  1. Tomcat log says the deployment is successful.

  1. I have an empty class with @ProcessApplication annotation.
  2. My project structure is also correct as per the solutions of other posts.(Tried a number of times to upload the screenshot, not working)
  3. Here is my processes.xml
<process-engine>default</process-engine>
<properties>
  <property name="resourceRootPath">classpath:processes/</property>

  <property name="isDeleteUponUndeploy">false</property>
  <property name="isScanForProcessDefinitions">true</property>
</properties>

processes.xml file location inside the war is
webapps\camunda_poc-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT\WEB-INF\classes\META-INF\processes.xml

  1. Checked my Eclipse and it’s pointed to JDK, not JRE.

I’m out of clue what exactly I’m missing and why my process is not showing on cockpit.

Thanks,

Hi Sayanti,

To clarify you are not able to see the deployment, right?
Did you try request it via Rest? (query)

Best regards,

Hi Yana,

Yeah I’m not able to see the deployed process on the cockpit.
I tried calling it from REST and it works.

Url : http://localhost:8080/engine-rest/deployment?name=mail_example
Response : [
{
“links”: ,
“id”: “214974b5-1247-11e8-9f2b-005056c00008”,
“name”: “mail_example”,
“source”: “process application”,
“deploymentTime”: “2018-02-15T17:25:34.501+0530”,
“tenantId”: null
}
]

Thanks,
Sayanti

Hi Sayanti,

Where do you check for the deployment - here?

If you are using the Enterprise edition of Camunda BPM, you can also raise a support ticket for this request if you like and we will look into it in the scope of our product support.

Best regards,
Yana

Hi Yana,

This is so strange. Yeah, I was checking there only, but now I can see my processes. I did no changes at all.
I don’t understand how did it come on the cockpit.
I’m using Enterprise edition only but a trial version but we are in talk with the sales team of Camunda to buy the Enterprise version.

So, now that my processes are visible on cockpit, I tried to start the process.
But getting "No connector found for connector id “mail-poll”.

Thanks,
Sayanti
