Java 11.0.14 with Camunda 7.16.0

We are using wildfly-23.0.2.Final and path of the camunda modules are in this folder. \wildfly-23.0.2.Final\modules\org\camunda

Created workflow with start node->script Task-end node.
In script node I have added below code.

var log=org.apache.logging.log4j.LogManager.getLogger(“motive.utilities.javascript.JavaScriptLogger”);
log.debug(“Test Log”);

When I run BPFlow getting below error.

Could you please us how to fix this. We have all the required camunda jars in our classpath.

I tested this with Camunda 7.18.0-alpha2, Wildfly 26.0.1, Java 8.
It works for me.
The log statement appears in server.log:
21.06. 14:23:00,509 DEBUG [motive.utilities.javascript.JavaScriptLogger#invokeHandle] Test Log

My script task is:

<bpmn:scriptTask id="Activity_111syw4" name="Test Script Logger" scriptFormat="javascript">
  <bpmn:incoming>SequenceFlow_10ou0ag</bpmn:incoming>
  <bpmn:outgoing>Flow_14iivlx</bpmn:outgoing>
  <bpmn:script>
var log=org.apache.logging.log4j.LogManager.getLogger("motive.utilities.javascript.JavaScriptLogger");
log.debug("Test Log");
  </bpmn:script>
</bpmn:scriptTask>

Can you upload your bpmn file here ?

Weird is the error message you get:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.logging.log4j.LogManager.getLogger
The class name is simply org.apache.logging.log4j.LogManager, getLogger is the method name.

Thx @langfr .
This is working fine for Java 8. Issue is with Java 11.

lingaraj · September 13, 2022, 2:35pm

I am also facing same with java-11 and camunda 7.11.0. I have tried by adding log4j module reference under camunda-engine module. But still I am getting ClassNotFoundException.
