Handling Error in Event subprocess thrown from another event subprocess

[aravindhrs]

I have service tasks ServiceTask1 and ServiceTask2. If some valid business error occurs in ServiceTask1, i was throwing BPMNError via JavaDelegate and thus caught by error start event in the event subprocess.

There’s another event subprocess which has timer based start event followed by UpdateStatus service task, in which if business error occurs i was throwing BPMNError via JavaDelegate.

BPMNError thrown from one interrupting event subprocess can be caught and handled in another interrupting event supbrocess?

I think that i have found the solution for this problem from couple of @Niall posts.

Error Event in an Event-Subprocess

You can’t attach an error event to an event-sub-process BUT you can throw an error event from an event-sub-process that will be caught by another event-sub-process.

Error Event in an Event-Subprocess

Something like this would do the trick [image] In this scenario - only the error event would actually cause the process to end. Is that what you’re trying to achieve?

Indeed - you can throw an error event from one event sub process and have it caught be another.
