EE spec requires that web container aborts any active txn at the end of a request --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBAS-3242 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-3242 Project: JBoss Application Server Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: Web (Tomcat) service Affects Versions: JBossAS-4.0.4.GA Reporter: Gavin King Assigned To: Remy Maucherat Priority: Critical Fix For: JBossAS-4.0.6.CR1 The Java EE spec requires that if there is any active JTA transaction at the end of a servlet request, then the container must abort the txn. JBoss currently does not do this. Instead it leaves orphaned transactions dangling about on pooled threads, ready and waiting to be resumed by any random request that comes along. This is really Bad behavior and I'm kinda shocked.
