Pattern Abstraction Visualizer throws exception

Isabel
edited January 2012 in - Usage
Hello all,

on chosing the Pattern Abstraction visualizer (new) from the drop down menu in the log view, an exception is thrown to stdout (see second attached file exception_extended.txt). In the GUI the display switches back to the object pool and probably there is an error message displayed in between but it happens so fast I cannot read anything. When I hit the View resource button on that log in the object pool I only see a white screen.

I use the current ProM 6.1 on MacOS X with the package patternabstractions-6.1.12.
(Both ProM 6.1 and the package downloaded and installed today).

Any ideas? I have tried chosing the Pattern abstractions visualizer on different log files.

Kind regards,
Isabel

  • Took some time to debug it, but I found the cause of the exception. I thought I might share it:

    The log files I used were missing information about the lifecycle concept.

    Adding the elements
    <string key="lifecycle:transition" value="complete"/>
    to XES and
    <EventType>complete</EventType>
    to MXML log files did the trick.

    It also solved another Exception issue (thrown by Guide Tree miner plugin) on the same log files!
