Timer Service bug

[holtak]

hi,

i followed your tutorial
http://docs.jboss.org/ejb3/tutorial/timer/timer.html

my problem is that the threads created newer stop when I call timer.cancel();

it looks like http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-1690?page=all

am I right?

yes, very likely you have the same problem described in jira.

the simple solution though can be if you do not care about transactions - just switch them off (set the trans-attribute in your ejb-jar.xml to NotSupported) for the methods which are setting timers on and off.
