Verify that Business Process Choreographer works by running a sample
application or your own business application that contains business processes,
human tasks, or both.
Before you begin
The application server, database system, and messaging service must
be running.
Why and when to perform this task
To verify that Business Process Choreographer works, you can either
use one of the sample applications that is provided, or run your own application.
Steps for this task
- Using either the administrative console or the wsadmin command,
install an enterprise application that contains business processes, human
tasks, or both:
- If you want to run a sample application, install and run one
of the applications in the Business Process Choreographer section of the samples
gallery. The sample applications include claims handling,
travel booking, and order processing.
- If you want to use your own enterprise application, install
the application.
- Errors will occur at this stage if the Business Process Choreographer
database cannot be accessed. These problems can be caused if the database
system is not running, if any database clients are not correctly configured,
or if errors were made defining the data source, for example, entering an
invalid user ID or password.
After the enterprise application is installed, it is in the state
stopped, and any process and task templates that it contains are in the state
started. No process or task instances can be created until the application
is started.
- Select the application and click Start to start the application. At this point, the input queues are read for the first time. Errors
will occur at this stage if the queue manager is not running, or if any mistakes
were made defining the JMS provider or JMS resources.
- Verify that the application works. Some applications
require the Business Process Choreographer Explorer to interact with business
processes and human tasks.
- In case of problems, see Troubleshooting
the Business Process Choreographer configuration.
- Optional: Stop and remove the sample application.
Result
Business Process Choreographer works.
