Multiple sessions and thread safety using jBPM persistence

created by Jason J in jBPM - View the full discussion

For every workflow process I am creating a new separate kbase/ksession.   So every flow is bound to a unique session and not shared.

 

I have enabled JPA persistence and pass in the following env to each new session:

 


env = KnowledgeBaseFactory.newEnvironment();
env.set(EnvironmentName.ENTITY_MANAGER_FACTORY, emf);
env.set(EnvironmentName.TRANSACTION_MANAGER, TransactionManagerServices.getTransactionManager());
session = createNewSession(env)
session.startProcess(...)

 

 

 

I am getting Hibernate StaleObjectExceptions and OptimisticLocking errors when I perform multiple operations on different processes.

I am not sure what specific DB operation is causing this, but since each process is in its own KSession - how is this even possible?

 

What database update could be in contention between 2 threads in this case?

 

I am using jBPM5.2.

 

Any ideas???
