--------------------------------------------------------------
In my project,i use the code below to configure the persistence:

try {
            PoolingDataSource ds = new PoolingDataSource();
            ds.setUniqueName("jdbc/testDS");
            ds.setClassName("com.mysql.jdbc.jdbc2.optional.MysqlXADataSource");
            ds.setMaxPoolSize(3);
            ds.setAllowLocalTransactions(true);
            ds.getDriverProperties().put("user", "root");
            ds.getDriverProperties().put("password", "root");
            ds.getDriverProperties().put("URL", "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/jbpm5");
            ds.init();
            // load up the knowledge base
            KnowledgeBase kbase = readKnowledgeBase();
            // start a new process instance
            EntityManagerFactory emf = Persistence
                    .createEntityManagerFactory("org.jbpm.persistence.jpa");
            Environment env = KnowledgeBaseFactory.newEnvironment();
            env.set(EnvironmentName.ENTITY_MANAGER_FACTORY,
                    emf);
            env.set(EnvironmentName.TRANSACTION_MANAGER,
                    TransactionManagerServices.getTransactionManager());

            // create a new knowledge session that uses JPA to store the runtime
            // state
            StatefulKnowledgeSession ksession=null;
            ksession= JPAKnowledgeService.newStatefulKnowledgeSession(
                    kbase,
                    null,
                    env);

            JPAWorkingMemoryDbLogger logger = new JPAWorkingMemoryDbLogger(ksession);
            ksession.getWorkItemManager().registerWorkItemHandler("Human Task", new WSHumanTaskHandler());
            // start a new process instance
            Map<String, Object> params = new HashMap<String, Object>();
            params.put("employee", "krisv");
            ksession.startProcess("com.sample.evaluation",params);

            logger.dispose();
} catch (Throwable t) {
            t.printStackTrace();
        }

However,when i start a new processinstance and try to complete the first task,exception happens just like this:

Registered human task listener

after the exception,the task stored in the database has a "completed" status,Can somebody help me to solve the problem?
By the way,If i run the code above twice,exception will also happen just like this:
