Does RESOURCE_LOCAL work with JBPM

[lakshmi.sampath]

Hi,

How do I configure JBPM 5.1  to use resource_local. Is it even supported. JBPM always throws exception whenever I use RESOURCE_LOCAL in persistence.xml.

thanks

lakshmi.

Mauricio,  I am trying to create a statefull session, but the error always goes into checking for JTA UserTransaction inside SingleSessionCommandService.

Here's the exception and below are my config files and java code. Hope its something simple you can point out!!! Thx

Try adding your spring transaction manager into environment before you create stateful session. It should prevent intenal mechanism to look up transaction manager.

Thanks Maciej,  That made it work!

I see this warning when jboss starts. Do you know how to make hibernate use thread context instead of JTA session context.

WARN  [org.hibernate.impl.SessionFactoryImpl] JTASessionContext being used with JDBCTransactionFactory; auto-flush will not operate correctly with getCurrentSession()

thanks
