I’m getting the following exception although there seems a corresponding process instance in database:
Exception:

The entry in the database:

image1334×116 33.3 KB

BTW: It’s a completed process as seen in the database also:

image1239×69 25.5 KB

What could be the reason for getting this exception?

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Suat_Gonul,

the process already terminated. It is not running anymore.
So why and how do you want to cancel it ?

Thanks a lot for your reply. It seems the intention wasn’t to cancel a terminated process but it is a bug enabling users to initiate such an action.
