[jboss-user] [jBPM] - Drools / jBPM with EJB3 persistence and transactions

I've read the applicable documentation http://docs.jboss.org/jbpm/v5.2/userguide/ch07.html here, but I'm still unsure about how to achieve this. In my SLSB I have:           @PersistenceUnit(unitName = "org.jbpm.persistence.jpa")           protected EntityManagerFactory emf;           @PersistenceContext           protected EntityManager em;           @Resource(mappedName = "java:/TransactionManager")           protected TransactionManager tm; Then in a @PostConstruct I have:                      env = KnowledgeBaseFactory.newEnvironment();                      env.set(EnvironmentName.ENTITY_MANAGER_FACTORY, emf);                      env.set(EnvironmentName.PERSISTENCE_CONTEXT_MANAGER, em);                      env.set(EnvironmentName.TRANSACTION_MANAGER, tm); But when I try:                      ksession = JPAKnowledgeService.newStatefulKnowledgeSession(getKnowledgeBase(), null, env); I get the exception: Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: com.arjuna.ats.jbossatx.jta.TransactionManagerDelegate cannot be cast to org.drools.persistence.TransactionManager         at org.drools.persistence.SingleSessionCommandService.initTransactionManager(SingleSessionCommandService.java:265)         at org.drools.persistence.SingleSessionCommandService.<init>(SingleSessionCommandService.java:115)         ... 54 more I checked the code, and I have to say I agree. ;-)  I don't get it.  I am expected to create my own class which wraps a real javax.transaction.TransactionManager and implements org.drools.persistence.TransactionManager?  What is the correct way to do this? Thanks in advance for any help, and my apologies if I missed something obvious... in a stateless session bena -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [https://community.jboss.org/message/647812#647812] Start a new discussion in jBPM at Community [https://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
