The wikipedia article is purely to explain the concept of MVCC.  The details are, naturally, quite different in JBC when compared to a relational database.  :-)

Anyway, yes there are other reasons why a tx may fail, including timeout exceptions in acquiring locks, timeout exceptions in replicating calls to remote nodes (if using synchronous mode), any number of network/io exceptions, exceptions with a cache loader when writing state to a loader, out of memory exceptions, etc.  Take your pick.  :-)
