Problem in using more than one entity manager with entity converter in Seam 2.1

[anilerukala]

I am upgrading my project from Seam 2.0.0.GA to Seam 2.1.0.GA. With Seam 2.0.0.GA I was able to set up more than one entity manager with entity converter. But it is not working with Seam 2.1.0.GA. I followed the reference documentation. But I think I am missing something.

I am using JPA. I have two databases. One persistence unit is called entityManager and another one is called entityManagerIDM. s:convertEntity is working fine with the dropdowns from first DB (entityManager). But when I use entity converter with second database I am getting error

java.lang.IllegalStateException: EntityManager is closed
     at org.hibernate.ejb.EntityManagerImpl.getSession(EntityManagerImpl.java:42)


Components.xml



`<components xmlns="http://jboss.com/products/seam/components"
xmlns:ui="http://jboss.com/products/seam/ui">

     <persistence:managed-persistence-context name="entityManager"
          auto-create="true"
          persistence-unit-jndi-name="java:/mduEntityManagerFactory" />

     <persistence:managed-persistence-context name="entityManagerIDM"
          auto-create="true"
          persistence-unit-jndi-name="java:/idmEntityManagerFactory" />

<ui:jpa-entity-loader name="idmEntityLoader" entity-manager="#{entityManagerIDM}"/>     

<ui:entity-converter name="idmEntityConverter" entity-loader="#{idmEntityLoader}"/>`



xhtml page where I am using entity converter.


`<h:selectOneListbox size="1"
value="#{developmentDetailsAction.development.directSalesRep}">
      <s:selectItems value="#   {developmentDetailsAction.getDirectSalesReps()}"                         label="#{directSalesRepresent.firstname} #{directSalesRepresent.lastname}"          var="directSalesRepresent" noSelectionLabel="Choose" />
     <f:converter converterId="idmEntityConverter" />
</h:selectOneListbox>`


If I remove <f:converter converterId="idmEntityConverter" /> I am able to see the drop down but when I select it says value is not valid (obviously). When I use converter I am getting the entityManager is closed error.

Please let me know what I am missing.

Thanks,

Were you able to find a solution to your problem? I'm having the exact same situation. My second data source is getting the EntityManager closed exception.
