9.1. Business calendar

To customize the business calendar configuration, remove the default business calendar configuration import and replace it with the custom values.

<jbpm-configuration>

  <import resource="jbpm.businesscalendar.cfg.xml" />
  ...

  <process-engine-context>
    <business-calendar>
      <monday    hours="9:00-18:00"/>
      <tuesday   hours="9:00-18:00"/>
      <wednesday hours="9:00-18:00"/>
      <thursday  hours="9:00-18:00"/>
      <friday    hours="9:00-18:00"/>
      <holiday period="01/02/2009 - 31/10/2009"/>
    </business-calendar>
  </process-engine-context>

</jbpm-configuration>

9.2. Console

By default the server host and port of the console web app are respectively localhost and 8080. It is not hard to imagine situations where it is needed to change those defaults. Hence they are made configurable. To customize, change the values of the default configuration (e.g. in the file "jbpm.console.cfg.xml") and replace them with the values you want.

<jbpm-configuration>

  <process-engine-context>
    <string name="jbpm.console.server.host" value="myNewHost">
    <string name="jbpm.console.server.port" value="9191">
  </process-engine-context>

</jbpm-configuration>

9.3. Email

The default configuration looks for a jbpm.mail.properties classpath resource containing JavaMail properties. To send mail through a server other than local host, set the mail.smtp.host property in the mail properties file.

mail.smtp.host=localhost
mail.smtp.port=25
mail.from=noreply@jbpm.org

If the SMTP server requires authentication, the application can supply a custom authenticator in the configuration file.

<mail-session>
  <mail-server>
    <session-properties resource="jbpm.mail.properties" />
    <authenticator class='BasicAuthenticator'>
      <field name='userName'><string value='aguizar'/></field>
      <field name='password'><string value='wontsay'/></field>
    </authenticator>
  </mail-server>
</mail-session>

In Java EE environments it is often the case that a mail session is already configured and bound to JNDI. To employ such a session, specify its JNDI name in the configuration file.

<mail-session>
  <mail-server session-jndi='java:comp/env/mail/smtp' />
</mail-session>
