Error description
When you trigger a boundary event in a coach, for example by clicking a button, an error occurs. In the SystemOut.log file of the server, you find an exception like this [8/5/16 16:47:40:419 CEST] 00000126 EJBWorkflowMa E CWLLG0594E: An exception occurred while initializing the runnable thread. Error: com.lombardisoftware.component.common.workflow.WorkflowProcessIt emException: java.lang.String incompatible with com.ibm.json.java.JSONObject com.lombardisoftware.component.common.workflow.WorkflowProcessIt emException: java.lang.String incompatible with com.ibm.json.java.JSONObject at com.lombardisoftware.component.common.workflow.ExecutionJob.doJo b(ExecutionJob.java:478) at com.lombardisoftware.server.ejb.workflow.EJBWorkflowManagerBean. doResumeWorkflowEngine(EJBWorkflowManagerBean.java:1438) at com.lombardisoftware.server.ejb.workflow.EJBWorkflowManagerBean. resumeProcess(EJBWorkflowManagerBean.java:414) at com.lombardisoftware.server.ejb.workflow.EJSRemoteStatefulEJBWor kflowManager_82478d70.resumeProcess(Unknown Source) at com.lombardisoftware.server.ejb.workflow._EJBWorkflowManagerInte rface_Stub.resumeProcess(_EJBWorkflowManagerInterface_Stub.java: 518) at com.lombardisoftware.component.common.workflow.EJBWorkflowManage rDelegateDefault.resumeProcess(EJBWorkflowManagerDelegateDefault .java:144) at com.lombardisoftware.component.common.workflow.EJBWorkflowManage rDelegateWebSphere$6.run(EJBWorkflowManagerDelegateWebSphere.jav a:84)
Local fix
Problem summary
When a coach fires a boundary event, the data is sent to the server and processing the other steps, for example server scripts or service invocations, continues. If the navigation reaches the same coach or a Stay on page event, the server sends the data that was changed on the server back to the browser only. In this delta-comparison, a list property set to null was not correctly handled, causing the ClassCastException.
