I am trying to creat a simple web application that demonstrates moving a token 
through a process and assigning users to tasks during the process.  

I am using the Spring Modules package  to configure my JBPM engine.   When i 
try to create a processInstance and signal the token it appears that my 
Taskinstance is not getting creating for my first task.

Here is my simple process Definition:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<process-definition name="3step">

  <!-- START-STATE -->
  <start-state name="start">
      
  </start-state>

  <!-- NODES -->
  <end-state name="end"/>
   <task-node name="task1">
      
   </task-node>
   <task-node name="task2">
      
   </task-node>
   <task-node name="task3">
      
   </task-node>

</process-definition>


Here is the code in my servlet:

webContext = WebApplicationContextUtils
                                
.getRequiredWebApplicationContext(getServletContext());

                jbpmConfiguration = (JbpmConfiguration) webContext
                                .getBean("jbpmConfiguration");

                JbpmTemplate jbpmTemplate = (JbpmTemplate) webContext
                                .getBean("jbpmTemplate");


                
                ProcessDefinition pd = jbpmTemplate.getProcessDefinition();     
                        
                

                ProcessInstance processInstance = new ProcessInstance(pd);

                Token token = processInstance.getRootToken();
                
                token.signal();
                
                TaskInstance task1 = getTaskInstanceByTaskName(processInstance, 
"task1");
                task1.setActorId("me");

.........


private TaskInstance getTaskInstanceByTaskName(ProcessInstance processInstance, 
String taskName){
                
                 Collection taskInstances = processInstance
         .getTaskMgmtInstance()
         .getTaskInstances();  // this collection is always null????     
         
         Iterator i = taskInstances.iterator();
         
         TaskInstance currentTask = null;
         
         while (i.hasNext()){
                 TaskInstance task = (TaskInstance)i.next();
                 
                 if (task.getName().equals(taskName)){
                         currentTask = task;
                         break;
                 }                       
         }
         
         return currentTask;
                
                
        }

Can anyone shed some light on why there is no task instance for this 
processInstance after the token.signal() is processed?
