Async Before at start event of a process did not read the setting of Retry Time Cycle

Hello,

I have set the Async Before at a process’s start event, and set the retry cycle to “R15/PT1M”. However when the job is failed, it only retry for 3 times which is the default retry cycle instead of the one set in the Retry Time Cycle.

Anyone can explain what is wrong? Thanks a lot.

Hi Richard,

Which Camunda BPM version do you use? Which version of Camunda Modeler do you use?

Cheers,

Hi,

It is version 7.2.0.

Hi,

Do you use the old Eclipse-based modeler or the new bpmn-io-based standalone modeler?

Cheers,
Thorben

Hi I am using the camunda modeler plugin available for eclipse, the version is 2.7.0.

Thanks.

Can you please post the process model? Then I can try to reproduce the problem.

Thanks,
Thorben

I’ve also stumbled across this. I’ve found that FoxFailedJobParseListener appears to only set the retry time cycle if the start event is a timer event.

if (type != null && type.equals(START_TIMER_EVENT)){ this.setFailedJobRetryTimeCycleValue(startEventElement, startEventActivity); }

Is this indeed the reason and then can we configure the retry strategy on regular start events?

Thanks,

Hi All,

i was just thinking if i can use retry time cycle configuration to get rid of this incident on start event as shown in image. But not sure if retry time cycle will cause any duplicates?

Will retry happens only if there is any incident happens on the start event step on camunda workflow as shown below?
