User development, A new message was posted in the thread "Entity Manager with BMT and Transaction Timeout": http://community.jboss.org/message/528658#528658 Author : jaikiran pai Profile : http://community.jboss.org/people/jaikiran Message: -------------------------------------------------------------- I would have expected the global transaction timeout value to apply for UserTransaction too. Can you try explicitly setting the timeout in your code, before starting the transaction? Like this:   // set timeout (1 hour) m_userTransaction.setTransactionTimeout(3600); m_userTransaction.begin();   Account account = m_entityManager.find(Account.class, accountId);   ...     account.getRelatedAccounts();     -------------------------------------------------------------- To reply to this message visit the message page: http://community.jboss.org/message/528658#528658
