Hi,

I am using JBoss 4.0.5GA and mysql 5.0 database.


in web tier:

UserTransaction userTransaction =
(UserTransaction)new InitialContext().lookup("java:comp/UserTransaction");

userTransaction.begin();


// in session bean, em is EntityManager
em.persist(entity);

From mysql console, the entity was created immediately in database(mysql).

I expected it to be created after calling

userTransaction.commit();

in web tier.


For debugging, I added the following code around em.persist(entity):

//debug
Session session = ((HibernateSession)em).getHibernateSession();
Transaction t = session.getTransaction();

t.begin();

em.persist(entity); // the enitty was created immediately in database (see from mysql console)

t.rollback();

boolean committed = t.wasCommitted(); // value is false
boolean rollback = t.wasRolledBack(); // value is false

after the rollback, the created entity did not roll back. The transaction was ignored.

Is this a bug? How to use UserTransaction with entityManager?

Thanks for any help!

Configure hibernate with a JTA transaction factory and see if that changes the situation:

hibernate.transaction.factory_class = org.hibernate.transaction.JTATransactionFactory
