title: Can not find processes folder when using spring boot and activiti
body: <p>I have already put processes folder under resources as <a href="https://spring.io/blog/2015/03/08/getting-started-with-activiti-and-spring-boot" rel="nofollow noreferrer">spring boot activiti user guide</a> said. Here is my structure.</p>

  <p>When I use :</p>
  
  <pre><code>1. mvn clean package
  2. java -jar target/xxx.jar
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It will raise following exception:</p>

  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Then when I execute:</p>
  
  <pre><code>mvn clean
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and use idea to run unit test again. It works.</p>
  
  <p>So, why processes folder can not be found when using mvn instead of idea? What is the problem here?</p>
