An activity has stopped because of an unhandled fault (Message: CWWBE0057I)

The system log contains a CWWBE0057I message, the process is in the state "running", but it does not proceed its navigation on the current path.

Reason

An activity is put in a stopped state, if all of the following happen:
  • A fault is raised by either the activity's implementation or during the evaluation of a condition, timer, or counter value associated with the activity, for example, its join condition or any of the transition conditions of its outgoing links.
  • The fault is not handled on the enclosing scope.
  • For invoke activities, inline human tasks, and Java snippets, if either of the following happens:
    • The continueOnError attribute of the process is set to no and the continueOnError attribute of the activity is set to inherit or no.
    • The continueOnError attribute of the process is set to yes and the continueOnError attribute of the activity is set to no.
  • For all other activities, the continueOnError attribute of the process is set to no.

Resolution

The solution to this problem requires actions at two levels:
  1. An administrator must repair the stopped activity instance manually. For example, to force complete or force retry the stopped activity instance.
  2. The reason for the failure must be investigated. In some cases the failure is caused by a modeling error that must be corrected in the model.
