Hi,

We are using camunda for our buinsess process automation. And we are in production now.

Recently we are struggling with this error. Not sure suddenly this happened. And unable resolve.

Cockpit is not showing “Process Definitions”.
But our Project War bundle with our bpmns got deployed successfully. I eve can see all the bpmn getting listed in the logs while deployment in progress.

The error we are facing is below, ( - is hidden for project reasons)
"
ERROR [org.camunda.bpm.engine.context] (job-executor-tp-threads - 2) ENGINE-16004 Exception while closing command context: deployment ‘b9e1653c-cb62-11e8-8c93-0242ac110002’ didn’t put process definition ‘:1:b9e4c0ae-cb62-11e8-8c93-0242ac110002’ in the cache: cachedProcessDefinition is null: org.camunda.bpm.engine.exception.NullValueException: deployment ‘b9e1653c-cb62-11e8-8c93-0242ac110002’ didn’t put process definition ‘:1:b9e4c0ae-cb62-11e8-8c93-0242ac110002’ in the cache: cachedProcessDefinition is null "

Would be a great help if could a fix or hint. This is stopping our whole processes.
We have been running this system for 6 months and suddenly this error.
No change in out custom code.

Thanks,
Nagaraj.

@Ingo_Richtsmeier Any idea why this might be happening. This happened with us as well while trying to delete the definition.

@sagu is that your process is executable?

Hi @sagu, @jatin,

I don’t have a clear idea what’s going on here.

During the last training it appeared on one of the attendees computer and in the end, the redeployment with the cockpit helped to see the process definition again: https://docs.camunda.org/manual/7.13/webapps/cockpit/deployment-view/#redeploy.

Another hint: check the state of the process definitions with the REST api or in the database.

Hope this helps, Ingo
