Transaction Issue

[toriton]

Hi all i'm new on JBPM.

I'm using JBPM 3.3.1 with JBoss 4.2.2GA and Oracle 10 Express.

I edited the hibernate.cfg.xml to point at Oracle , and seem all ok.
I created the standard user and group and membership to access the console but when i'm logged, the pages show several errors:


Error loading task list: An exception of type "org.jbpm.JbpmException" was thrown. The message is: couldn't get task instances list for actor 'manager'


Error loading process list: An exception of type "org.jbpm.JbpmException" was thrown. The message is: couldn't find all process definitions


Error loading task list: An exception of type "org.jbpm.JbpmException" was thrown. The message is: couldn't get task instances list for actor 'manager'

those messages are showed on pages in the console , browsing between
process list page,or user/groups list page and so on, but on the log the error that i can see is :

this is a part of my config file, to create datasource for Hibernate:

 <!-- hibernate dialect -->
 <property name="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.Oracle10gDialect</property>


 <property name="hibernate.current_session_context_class">org.hibernate.context.ThreadLocalSessionContext</property>

 <!-- DataSource properties (begin) -->
 <property name="hibernate.connection.datasource">java:JbpmDS</property>
 <!-- DataSource properties (end) -->

 <property name="hibernate.connection.driver_class">oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver</property>
 <property name="hibernate.connection.url">jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:XE</property>
 <property name="hibernate.connection.username">system</property>
 <property name="hibernate.connection.password">123</property>
 <!-- JTA transaction properties (end) -->

 <!-- CMT transaction properties (begin) ===

 <property name="hibernate.transaction.manager_lookup_class">org.hibernate.transaction.JBossTransactionManagerLookup</property>
 ==== CMT transaction properties (end) -->

The Data Source named "java:JbpmDS" is defined here:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

 <user-name>system</user-name>
 <password>123</password>



 <!-- reduce isolation from the default level (repeatable read) -->
 <transaction-isolation>TRANSACTION_READ_COMMITTED</transaction-isolation>
 <!-- separate connections used with and without JTA transaction -->
 <no-tx-separate-pools />
 <!-- disable transaction interleaving -->

 <!-- corresponding type-mapping in conf/standardjbosscmp-jdbc.xml -->
 <metadata>
 <type-mapping>Oracle9i</type-mapping>
 </metadata>
 </xa-datasource>

</datasources>

i'm not sure if this part is correct, but i don't found anithing about Oracle 10 in the conf files of JBoss about Oracle 10.

<type-mapping>Oracle9i</type-mapping>



Anyone can suggest a workaround or something to solve this problem?.


thanks in advance.

[toriton]

The problem is still up, anyone can help me?

I have another question too, anyone can link me where i can download source code for JBPM 3.3.1?

Thanks in advance.

[salaboy21]

are you using XA datasource because you need it or because you copy the datasource from some place?

[toriton]

No i don't need it at this moment..
i want just to run some examples.

[toriton]

After your question.. i changed the DS for a not XA datasource, using as template the examples DS under JBoss/docs/examples/jca.

And i don't understand this message:

2009-02-26 10:30:54,850 DEBUG [org.jbpm.persistence.jta.JtaDbPersistenceService] rolling back user transaction

If jbpm invoke a roll back on a transaction.. well there is a transaction, that instead is missing when calling named query..
And before the ERROR, seems that session was created successfully..

Where is the damn error.. i'm sure that is something missing in mine configuration...

[bradsdavis]

You are using a container mangaged transaction in your hibernate configuration. This is why its expecting one to be open when you perform jbpm. Change:

hibernate.transaction.factory_class = org.hibernate.transaction.CMTTransactionFactory

See: http://www.hibernate.org/42.html

[toriton]

Hi brads thanks for reply.

I changed that properties too and many others to try something.
this is the FULL Hiberante configuration ATM (plus all mapping resource hbm.xml that Jbpm need):

<property name="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.Oracle10gDialect</property>
 <property name="hibernate.current_session_context_class">org.hibernate.context.ThreadLocalSessionContext</property>
 <property name="hibernate.connection.datasource">java:/JbpmDS</property>
 <property name="hibernate.transaction.factory_class">org.hibernate.transaction.JTATransactionFactory</property>
 <property name="hibernate.transaction.manager_lookup_class">org.hibernate.transaction.JBossTransactionManagerLookup</property>

As you can see i'm using now just the DataSource specified as tx-local (see the post above), and getting the same error with only the DataSource not jdbc properties spefied in the Hibernate.cfg.

I can still loggging in the console, but as usual can't get task or users or insert a new user or group via conosole.

[toriton]

Another configuration:

<property name="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.Oracle10gDialect</property>
 <property name="hibernate.current_session_context_class">org.hibernate.context.ThreadLocalSessionContext</property>
 <property name="hibernate.connection.driver_class">oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver</property>
 <property name="hibernate.connection.url">jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:XE</property>
 <property name="hibernate.connection.username">system</property>
 <property name="hibernate.connection.password">123</property>
 <property name="hibernate.query.substitutions">true 1, false 0</property>
 <property name="hibernate.transaction.factory_class">org.hibernate.transaction.JTATransactionFactory</property>
 <property name="hibernate.transaction.manager_lookup_class">org.hibernate.transaction.JBossTransactionManagerLookup</property>

same error.

The Transaction Manager.. is specified for JBoss i think that i can't change it for another right?..

Thanks in advance for any reply.

[toriton]

Got it.
not more problem and with an XA DataSource. the problems was, this :

UserTransaction
Not specified in other Config files.

If could Help this is my final configuration:
XA DS Oracle (cut and past of the example under JBOSS):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<datasources>

 <xa-datasource>
 <jndi-name>JbpmDS</jndi-name>
 <track-connection-by-tx/>
 <isSameRM-override-value>false</isSameRM-override-value>

 <xa-datasource-property name="URL">jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:XE</xa-datasource-property>
 <xa-datasource-property name="User">system</xa-datasource-property>
 <xa-datasource-property name="Password">123</xa-datasource-property>
 <!--user-name>system</user-name>

 </mbean-->

 <!-- corresponding type-mapping in conf/standardjbosscmp-jdbc.xml -->
 <metadata>
 <type-mapping>Oracle9i</type-mapping>
 </metadata>
 </xa-datasource>

</datasources>

and the Hibernate.cfg (missing just the part of all hbm.xml files):

 <property name="hibernate.connection.datasource">java:/JbpmDS</property>
 <property name="hibernate.transaction.factory_class">org.hibernate.transaction.JTATransactionFactory</property>
 <property name="hibernate.transaction.manager_lookup_class">org.hibernate.transaction.JBossTransactionManagerLookup</property>
 <property name="jta.UserTransaction">UserTransaction</property>

 <!-- ################################### -->
 <!-- # common settings # -->

 <!-- Automatic schema creation (begin) ===
 <property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto">create</property>

 <!-- Simple memory-only cache -->

 <!-- logging properties -->
 <property name="hibernate.format_sql">true</property>
 <property name="hibernate.use_sql_comments">true</property>

I hope that this can help anyone that need a start configuration.

Thanks for the reply .
