Thanks Mark! I'll try that (*kmodule-spring.xml*) today ....
In the mean time I answered one of my own questions: > Moreover - *do I have to do it this way?* The project executes the Spring > MVC > Web App just fine and the Drools KIE test case runs perfectly in the same > Maven project. *Can't I just integrate them programmatically instead?* The answer is *yes*, I can do it programmatically instead. I tested running the simple DroolsTest code in one of the Spring MVC Controllers (just for kicks and giggles) and after fixing the thorny problem articulated below ... IT Worked! I was able to *enter form data in a Spring MVC Web app and have it execute Drools KIE on the back end*.... There was an error which warrants articulating for posterity sake - here it is below: I was Trying to get Drools to execute from Spring MVC WEB in Pure Maven Project (no added natures of any kind) and ran head first into this problem: *ERROR KieContainerImpl - Unknown KieSession name: ksession-rules* Initial RND: (some direction - but no solutions) Unknown KieSession name in drools 6.0 (while trying to add drools to existing maven/eclipse project) http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/Null-pointer-exception-when-adding-drools-to-existing-project-td4027944.html#a4028011 Related Problem (... but a big clue): *WARN ClasspathKieProject - Unable to load pom.properties tried recursing down from/Apache-Tomcat7/webapps/maven-spring-drools/WEB-INF/classes* SOLUTION: As it turns out, creating the directory *WEB-INF/classes* and placing the files* pom.properties* and *pom.xml* in it *solves the problem*. The clue came from this link: http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/Drools-6-Unable-to-build-index-of-kmodule-xml-td4026791.html - where Mark Proctor indicated that the project has to be a maven project, and it *needs to find pom.properties*. As soon as the KIE finds the *pom.properties* file, it figures out the KieSession name and the problem is solved. Note: I'd suspect you'd have to manually keep that POM.XML file updated but the pom.properties file never changes. This has been my experience - hope it helps someone.... -- View this message in context: http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/No-setter-found-for-property-kBaseName-in-class-org-kie-spring-factorybeans-KBaseFactoryBean-tp4029143p4029147.html Sent from the Drools: User forum mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ rules-users mailing list rules-users@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/rules-users
