今天在学习activiti5的时候遇到了这个问题：org.activiti.engine.ActivitiObjectNotFoundException: no deployed process definition found with id 'simpleApprovalProcess'，网上这方面的资料少，一直没有找到为什么会出现这个错误。最后通过调试程序，终于发现这个问题是自己粗心造成的。
错误信息：

我的Java代码：
package com.bug315;
import org.activiti.engine.ProcessEngine;
import org.activiti.engine.ProcessEngines;
import org.activiti.engine.RepositoryService;
import org.activiti.engine.RuntimeService;
import org.activiti.engine.TaskService;
import org.activiti.engine.runtime.ProcessInstance;
import org.activiti.engine.task.Task;
public class ActivitiTest01 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// 创建流程引擎
ProcessEngine processEngine = ProcessEngines.getDefaultProcessEngine();
// 获取流程存储服务组件
RepositoryService repositoryService = processEngine.getRepositoryService();
// 获取运行时服务组件
RuntimeService runtimeService = processEngine.getRuntimeService();
// 获取流程任务组件
TaskService taskService = processEngine.getTaskService();
// 1、部署流程文件
repositoryService.createDeployment().name("myProcess")
.addClasspathResource("bpmn/activiti_test01.bpmn").deploy();
// 2、启动流程
ProcessInstance processInstance = runtimeService.startProcessInstanceByKey("myProcess");
//runtimeService.startProcessInstanceById("myProcess");
System.out.println(processInstance.getId());
// 3、查询第一个任务
Task task = taskService.createTaskQuery().singleResult();
System.out.println("============" + task.getId() + "============");
taskService.complete(task.getId()); // 完成任务
// 4、查询第二个任务
task = taskService.createTaskQuery().singleResult();
System.out.println("============" + task.getId() + "============");
taskService.complete(task.getId()); // 完成任务
// 5、流程结束
task = taskService.createTaskQuery().singleResult();
System.out.println("============ 任务结束（" + task + "） ============");
}
}解决办法：
仔细看上面的异常是指定的流程定义ID不存在。再仔细看看我的代码，我的愿意是通过流程定义中<process>元素的id去启动流程。但是我错误写使用了startProcessInstanceById方法。因此将startProcessInstanceById（）方法改为startProcessInstanceByKey()方法就解决问题了。你到act_re_procdef表中去查看ID_字段的格式为：myProcess:1:4，所以根本就不存在ID等于myProcess的流程定义。这些都是初心大意造成的，不知你是否也犯过这种低级错误。
部分流程XML代码：
<process id="myProcess" name="My process" isExecutable="true">
部分测试代码：
// 2、启动流程
ProcessInstance processInstance = runtimeService.startProcessInstanceByKey("myProcess");
// runtimeService.startProcessInstanceById("myProcess"); // 这里调用方法写错了
