Verifying that Business Process Choreographer works

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

  1. Using either the administrative console or the wsadmin command, install an enterprise application that contains business processes, human tasks, or both:
    1. 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.
    2. If you want to use your own enterprise application, install the application.
    3. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Verify that the application works. Some applications require the Business Process Choreographer Explorer to interact with business processes and human tasks.
  4. In case of problems, see Troubleshooting the Business Process Choreographer configuration.
  5. Optional: Stop and remove the sample application.

Result

Business Process Choreographer works.
