[jboss-user] [JBossCache] - Re: Performing cache operations while in a catch() section

yes, that is sort of it - I figured it out just before you replied. the entire operation is wrapped in a transaction (it's processing a MDB message) and communication with another system fails, so the code throws an exception to trigger the catch section in the onMessage() method that acts as a general point for rolling back operations. In that catch(), the cache operation happens - and the cache is set up to use transactions. then the overall transaction gets rolled back, so another node could retry processing the message. so since the overall transaction gets rolled back, transactions within won't complete properly. so I need to look at whether all the cache operations really need to be transactional (can I suspend the use of transactions in the cache individually?) or figure out how to suspend the overall transaction (but the container is doing all that work right now, so I'd have to get into the guts of things... that does not sound appetizing) thanks!
