Hi ,
Can some one plz tell me how to rollback in hibernate.I have tried transaction.rollback() on numerous occassions but it does not help. All forums on the internet indicate this as the only way of rolling back but it does not seem to work for me.

Kindly help

getTransaction().rollback() does work. There must be something else going on in your particular situation. Perhaps you have auto commit on?

This is the
code snippet i tried

Session session=HibernateUtil.currentSession();
Transaction transaction=session.beginTransaction();
SmHostBean hostBean=new SmHostBean();

//if I print here session.connection().getAutoCommit(),it prints false

hostBean.setId(2);
hostBean.setIpaddress("22");
hostBean.setPort("22");
session.save(hostBean);
hostBean=new SmHostBean();
hostBean.setId(1); //this id already exists in the DB
hostBean.setIpaddress("11");
hostBean.setPort("11");
session.save(hostBean);
try{
transaction.commit();

}catch (Exception e) {
transaction.rollback();
}[/b]

I have the same problem. The sad thing is that this once worked very well. I'm trying to understand what is wrong but no luck yet. Check my posts in http://forum.hibernate.org/viewtopic.ph ... highlight= about the same problem.

By the way, my session.connection().getAutoCommit() also prints false.
