Changing workflow engine properties in alfresco-global.properties

[kintu_barot]

Hello Everyone,

Will there be any changes in the functionality of the workflow from user's point of view if I change its engine properties in alfresco-global.properties? Right now I have system.workflow.engine.activiti.enabled=true in my global.properties file.

e.g. 

system.workflow.engine.activiti.enabled=false‍‍

and

system.workflow.engine.jbpm.enabled=true‍‍

I would like to know the difference between these two, from the developers or performance point of view.

Thanks in Advance.

Kintu

Hello.

Well, it all depends on the Alfresco version you are using, as JBPM got removed from version 201605 (aka 5.1.g), as you can see here https://community.alfresco.com/docs/DOC-6297-alfresco-community-edition-201605-ga-release-notes#jive...

Hi Douglas C. R. Paes,

I am using Alfresco Community 5.0.

I have enabled jbpm engine by following properties in alfreaco-global.properties file.

system.workflow.engine.jbpm.definitions.visible=true
system.workflow.engine.jbpm.enabled=true

but I was getting 'activiti$xxxx' in task id.

Then I disabled activiti engine by following properties

system.workflow.engine.activiti.definitions.visible=false
system.workflow.engine.activiti.enabled=false

And Its giving 'jbpm$xxxx' in task id.

It means just enabling jbpm engine is not enough, in order to make it work; you must disable activiti engine also.

Thanks
