The following steps describe how to update the ASEE Flow artifacts on a JBoss AS 7 and Wildfly server in a shared process engine scenario. For the entire procedure, refer to the update guide. If not already done, make sure to download the ASEE Flow 7.11 JBoss distribution or ASEE Flow 7.11 Wildfly distribution. In the following instructions $APP_SERVER should be replaced with either jboss or wildfly, depending on the used application server.
WildFly 8 ModulesFrom version 7.11, only a single ASEE Flow WildFly distribution is provided, packaged with the latest WildFly version. For WildFly 10+ users, the update guide remains the same. However, if you are a WildFly 8 user, please download the ASEE Flow WildFly 8 Modules archive for updating the ASEE Flow Modules.Furthermore, the ASEE Flow subsystem extension in the application server’s configuration file (in most cases $WILDFLY_HOME/standalone/configuration/standalone.xml) needs to be adjusted to:
<server xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:2.1">
  <extensions>
    ...
    <extension module="org.camunda.bpm.wildfly.camunda-wildfly8-subsystem"/>
The update procedure takes the following steps:
  1. Update the ASEE Flow Modules
  2. Update Optional ASEE Flow Modules
  3. Update ASEE Flow Web Applications
Whenever the instructions are to replace a module, make sure to delete the previous version of the module first to avoid orphan jars.

1. Update the ASEE Flow Modules

Replace the following modules from the folder $APP_SERVER_HOME/modules/ with their new versions from the folder $APP_SERVER_DISTRIBUTION/modules/:
  • org/camunda/bpm/camunda-engine
  • org/camunda/bpm/$APP_SERVER/camunda-$APP_SERVER-subsystem
  • org/camunda/bpm/model/camunda-bpmn-model
  • org/camunda/bpm/model/camunda-cmmn-model
  • org/camunda/bpm/model/camunda-dmn-model
  • org/camunda/bpm/model/camunda-xml-model
  • org/camunda/bpm/dmn/camunda-engine-dmn
  • org/camunda/bpm/dmn/camunda-engine-feel-api
  • org/camunda/bpm/dmn/camunda-engine-feel-juel
  • org/camunda/commons/camunda-commons-logging
  • org/camunda/commons/camunda-commons-typed-values
  • org/camunda/commons/camunda-commons-utils

2. Update Optional ASEE Flow Modules

In addition to the core modules, there may be optional artifacts in $APP_SERVER_HOME/modules/ for LDAP integration, ASEE Flow Connect, ASEE Flow Spin, and Groovy scripting. If you use any of these extensions, the following update steps apply:

LDAP Integration

Replace the following module from the folder $APP_SERVER_HOME/modules/ with its new version from the folder $APP_SERVER_DISTRIBUTION/modules/, if present:
  • org/camunda/bpm/identity/camunda-identity-ldap

ASEE Flow Connect

Replace the following modules from the folder $APP_SERVER_HOME/modules/ with their new versions from the folder $APP_SERVER_DISTRIBUTION/modules/, if present:
  • org/camunda/connect/camunda-connect-core
  • org/camunda/connect/camunda-connect-http
  • org/camunda/connect/camunda-connect-soap-http-client
  • org/camunda/bpm/camunda-engine-plugin-connect
Additionally, also replace the following dependent modules:
  • org/apache/httpcomponents/httpclient
  • org/apache/httpcomponents/httpcore
  • commons-codec/commons-codec

ASEE Flow Spin

Replace the following modules from the folder $APP_SERVER_HOME/modules/ with their new versions from the folder $APP_SERVER_DISTRIBUTION/modules/, if present:
  • org/camunda/spin/camunda-spin-core
  • org/camunda/spin/camunda-spin-dataformat-json-jackson
  • org/camunda/spin/camunda-spin-dataformat-xml-dom
  • org/camunda/bpm/camunda-engine-plugin-spin
Additionally, also replace the following dependent modules:
  • com/fasterxml/jackson/core/jackson-annotations
  • com/fasterxml/jackson/core/jackson-core
  • com/fasterxml/jackson/core/jackson-databind
  • com/jayway/jsonpath/json-path

3. Update ASEE Flow Web Applications

Update REST API

The following steps are required to update the ASEE Flow REST API on a JBoss/Wildfly instance:
  1. Undeploy an existing web application with a name like camunda-engine-rest
  2. Download the REST API web application archive from our Artifact Repository. Alternatively, switch to the private repository for the enterprise version (credentials from license required). Choose the correct version named $PLATFORM_VERSION/camunda-engine-rest-$PLATFORM_VERSION-$CLASSIFIER.war.
  3. Deploy the web application archive to your JBoss/Wildfly instance.

Update Cockpit, Tasklist, and Admin

The following steps are required to update the ASEE Flow web applications Cockpit, Tasklist, and Admin on a JBoss/Wildfly instance:
  1. Undeploy an existing web application with a name like camunda-webapp
  2. Download the ASEE Flow web application archive from our Artifact Repository. Alternatively, switch to the private repository for the enterprise version (credentials from license required). Choose the correct version named $PLATFORM_VERSION/camunda-webapp-jboss.war.
  3. Deploy the web application archive to your JBoss/Wildfly instance.
