How to configure flowable-rest.war using JNDI

Flowable Engine
4

Hi …

You’re correct. The commented out section is not updated with the latest way to initialize the separate engines (dmn, form and content) and inject them into the process engine.

Take a look at this flowable-custom-context.xml

Also don’t forget to remove the @Configuration annotation from the org.flowable.rest.conf.FlowableEngineConfiguration class.

Let me know if this helps.
I’ll make sure this ends up in the repo before the next release.
