JTATransactionFactory.isTransactionInProgress fails with WebSphereExtendedJTATransactionLookup ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-2160 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2160 Project: Hibernate3 Type: Bug Components: core Versions: 3.2.0.ga Environment: Hibernate 3.2.0 ga WebSphere Application Server 6.0.2.15 DB2 9.1 Reporter: Timothy Folks Configurating Hibernate with the following settings: hibernate.transaction.factory_class=org.hibernate.transaction.JTATransactionFactory hibernate.transaction.manager_lookup_class=org.hibernate.transaction.WebSphereExtendedJTATransactionLookup jta.UserTransaction=java:comp/UserTransaction hibernate.current_session_context_class=jta results in the following stack trace (irrelevant lines snipped) <snipped> Caused by: org.hibernate.TransactionException: could not register synchronization with JTA TransactionManager at org.hibernate.jdbc.JDBCContext.registerSynchronizationIfPossible(JDBCContext.java:181) at org.hibernate.jdbc.JDBCContext.<init>(JDBCContext.java:76) at org.hibernate.impl.SessionImpl.<init>(SessionImpl.java:213) at org.hibernate.impl.SessionFactoryImpl.openSession(SessionFactoryImpl.java:525) at org.hibernate.context.JTASessionContext.buildOrObtainSession(JTASessionContext.java:114) at org.hibernate.context.JTASessionContext.currentSession(JTASessionContext.java:80) at org.hibernate.impl.SessionFactoryImpl.getCurrentSession(SessionFactoryImpl.java:542) <snipped> Caused by: java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException at org.hibernate.transaction.WebSphereExtendedJTATransactionLookup$TransactionManagerAdapter.getStatus(WebSphereExtendedJTATransactionLookup.java:78) at org.hibernate.transaction.JTATransactionFactory.isTransactionInProgress(JTATransactionFactory.java:94) at org.hibernate.jdbc.JDBCContext.isTransactionInProgress(JDBCContext.java:187) at org.hibernate.jdbc.JDBCContext.registerSynchronizationIfPossible(JDBCContext.java:159) The workaround I've implemented is to change the following line in JTATransactionFactory.isTransactionInProgress: if ( jdbcContext.getFactory().getTransactionManager() != null ) { to: if ( jdbcContext.getFactory().getTransactionManager() != null && jdbcContext.getFactory().getTransactionManager() instanceof WebSphereExtendedJTATransactionLookup.TransactionManagerAdapter == false) { This results in the method falling back to looking up the UserTransaction in JNDI and calling getStatus on that. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
