Hello,

I am getting the exception "org.hibernate.SessionException: Session is closed!" intermittently in a production environment when trying to get the Transaction via:

Session session = sessionFactory.getCurrentSession();
Transaction transaction = session.getTransaction();

So far I am unable to reproduce this error on a developer machine unless I specifically close out the session with session.close(), however I cannot find any instances of something like that in the code. I'd like to be able to test to see if session is open or not--if it's not, I'd like to open a session, however I'd like to continue to have Hibernate manage the connections, so I'm hesitant to use SessionFactory.openSession().

Is there a way to get a new session and tie it back into Hibernate for mangement, in the case where SessionFactory.getCurrentSession() returns a closed session?

Thanks so much,
Pedro

In hopes of getting someone to reply, here's what I'm looking for code-wise:

try {
if (!isInitialized) {
init();
}

long start = System.currentTimeMillis();
Session session = sessionFactory.getCurrentSession();

if (!session.isOpen()) {
//SOMEHOW RE-OPEN THE SESSION AND TIE IT BACK INTO HIBERNATE FOR CONNECTION MANAGEMENT

}

//This line is capable of throwing a "session is already closed!" exception
Transaction transaction = session.getTransaction();

Thanks,
Pedro

Did you work out how to do this?
