I am using an Spring and hibernate architecture for my web application.
It seems that if using OpenSessionInView , at editing , the data is not updated into the table (at least is not comited).
The same code is working correct from the unittests.

my transaction proxy looks like this:

<bean id="userService" class="org.springframework.transaction.interceptor.TransactionProxyFactoryBean">
<property name="transactionManager">
<ref local="transactionManager"/>
</property>
<property name="target">
<ref local="userServiceTarget"/>
</property>
<property name="transactionAttributes">
<props>
<prop key="*">PROPAGATION_REQUIRED</prop>
</props>
</property>
</bean>

Many thanks

I think i better enter into more details with this problem:

I have a generic DAO implementation for Hibernate. For example, the save method looks like this:



if I am using session.flush after



everything is working fine (at least in this single case).
But I think flushing the session will give me more problems than it solves.

Regarding flushing: OpenSessionInViewFilter/Interceptor assumes that it is used with middle tier transactions or HibernateTemplates with flushMode FLUSH_EAGER. If you use neither, there won't be any flush on such a Session. (The javadoc explicitly states this.)

In your particular case, double-check your configuration and your execution logs: Are those transactions really applied? Do you always work with the "userService" proxy, never with the target directly? At the end of a non-read-only transaction, a flush should happen - check the debug logs.

As a side note, are you aware that HibernateTemplate features a lot of convenience methods that pre-implement typical one-liners like saveOrUpdate? For example:
