I didn’t find anything in documentation, and just I am including it into a JBoss 5.1 application server. If I use the Jpa approach that is included in documentation, it creates two EntityManager, initializaes twice hibernate and it complains that the database conections were closed by hibernate instead of me Regards, Carlos -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/607560#607560] Start a new discussion in jBPM at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
