[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBPM-983) concurrent process execution fails

[ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBPM-983?page=comments#action_12367519 ] Tom Baeyens commented on JBPM-983: ---------------------------------- Guys, it would be helpful if you could summarize how you see violations against the following intended operation: * StaleObjectStateException are to be expected and don't mean it's not working * Getting stuck in a join *is* definitely a problem. I would need help in setting up the right environment to reproduce this: what database ? what isolation level you use for the driver ? * The idea is that each thread operates according the following procedure: 1) in a first transaction, every thread tries to write its own name in the lockOwner field of a job that needs to be executed. (all exclusive jobs are locked in the same transaction) 2) if the first transaction succeeds, a new transaction is started for each of the locked jobs. in each of these transactions, the job record is deleted together with executing it. 3) if the first transaction fails, it means that another thread has beat this thread to it in writing its name into the lockOwner field. in that case, the transaction of this thread is rolled back and a new query is executed to try and acquire jobs as in step 1. So what I need from you is to get confirmation that it's not just the StaleObjectException's that you report as a problem. Those can happen. But I would appreciate all the input on how I can reproduce e.g. a join failure. Very important is also the database driver and isolation level. I ran some tests with hsqldb with isolation level 0 so i assumed it worked for everything else. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
