Installing jBPMN

Constantin Jucovschi edited this page Oct 18, 2013 · 2 revisions

We use the jBPMN engine (v.5.5) for running BPMN workflows. jBPMN comes with a Web-based tool for authoring BPMN workflows called Drools-Guvnor.

To install it on your computer, you need to download

The first archive is the Guvnor web Interface that allows you to manage your workflows. The war file jbpm-designer allows you to author BPMN workflows. I would recommend installing Guvnor and jbpm-designer with Tomcat 6 - that’s the system that I had least problems with.

Easiest installation procedure is:

  • install tomcat 6
  • unzip guvnor-distribution-...-.zip, rename binaries/guvnor-...-tomcat-6.0.war to “drools-guvnor.war”
  • copy drools-guvnor.war into the webapps/ directory from tomcat.
  • rename jbpm-designer...war to designer.war and copy it to webapps/ directory from tomcat.
  • access jBPM at http://localhost:8080/drools-guvnor If you installed tomcat to run on a port different from 8080, you need to adjust jbpm-designer’s configuration.
