Hello to all, I am making this question because I could not find the answer in forums, openkm documentation and internet. I have just finished a workflow, it was developed in the VM that openKM recomends to download, using eclipse, etc... I want to integrate to production environment, but I did not find an answer on the internet. How could I do it? I read the documentation, but I could not find the steps to do it, there are examples of how make a workflow but not how take it to production and run it. I imagine that I have to leave the OpenKM.war in the production directory, under tomcat/webapps, the problem that I have is I can't generate the war file because I don't have the OpenKM project among the VM's projects, only examples.
I think that I could make it doing the following:
- Copy the original project that I have in production (OpenKM folder),
- Shared a folder with the VM, import the project from VM eclipse IDE,
- Make changes to the project (develop workflows for example),
- Export the project like war file,
- Put the war file in shared folder to return it to my host SO (windows 10),
- Copy it under tomcat/webapps directory of production and
- Restart tomcat?
Are those the correct steps? Is there a official way to do it?

Regards.
Victor.

Hi again, I could resolve it with openkm help, when you are in the workflow view, in the eclipse IDE, click on the menu JBPM tab, save like par file (filename.par), that par file I shared with my host SO through shared folder between sistems, and then upload the par file from openkm production app, logued as admin, in the administration tab/workflow item. In the bottom of this page, you can upload the par file and then register it.
Regards.

You might have open the diagram ( *.jpdl.xml file ) in the eclipse tab, and then in the top menu jBPM menu you will have the option "Save Process Archive" -> that will save the .par file what contents all the forms, images and classes you have set in the workflow definition.
