JCA Local Transaction demarciation over EJB container manage

[interrom]

Hello,
I have developed an JCA Ressource Adapter for an EIS. The Ress. Ad. supports LocalTransactions.
So I want to run an ejb which uses the Ress. Ad. . The ejb runs with container mgmt trans.
The connection to the eis is created and the jboss transaction manager wants to start the local
transaction on my eis. The local transaction begin method is called by the jboss transaction manager.
The ressource adapter starts the local trans and sends the
ConnectionEvent.LOCAL_TRANSACTION_STARTED. then this error occured:


10:29:33,844 DEBUG [[RMI TCP Connection(2)-53.118.161.106] DEBUG jca.spi.DPPRManagedConnection (DPPRManagedConnection.java:713)] signalTransactionEvent to=org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.TxConnectionManager$TxConnectionEventListener@1eeb372 eventType=LOCAL_TRANSACTION_STARTED
10:29:33,844 ERROR [[RMI TCP Connection(2)-53.118.161.106] ERROR jca.spi.DPPRLocalTransaction (DPPRLocalTransaction.java:99)] java.lang.IllegalStateException: Attempt to start local transaction while xa transaction is active!

The error message from jboss is "Attempt to start local transaction while xa transaction is active!".
Why is here a xa transaction, and why I'm not able to start my local transaction?

If you have any Idea, please tell me.

Best regards,
Robert Mederer

Sorry I forgot:

I run Jboss 3.2.3 with jdk 1.4.2

I have a add on.

I analyze the source of jboss and ifound this part of source,
which throws the IllegalStateException in the org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.TxConnectionManager.TxConnectionEventListener

/**
 *
 * @param param1 <description>
 */
public void localTransactionStarted(ConnectionEvent ce)
{
 if (currentTx != null) // the javax.transaction.Transaction instance
 {
 throw new IllegalStateException("Attempt to start local transaction while xa transaction is active!");
 } // end of if ()

}

why is it not allowed to start a local transaction when you hava a Instance of javax.transaction.Transaction.
If I have really understand the transaction handling, it is the case that a XA transaction demarciates a transaction with the local one.
So I don't understand the behaviour of jboss.

This is a bug. It should not be reporting errors for local transactions started
by the application server.

Ok it is a bug, when does jboss plan to fix it ?
