    JBoss 2.4.4 bug - deadlock with two beans

    donatas

      It seems to be a JBoss 2.4.4 bug. I have following tables in PostgreSQL DB:

      CREATE SEQUENCE Type_ID_seq;
      CREATE TABLE Type (
      ID INTEGER DEFAULT nextval('Type_ID_seq') NOT NULL,
      Description VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL,
      CONSTRAINT PK_Type PRIMARY KEY (ID),
      );

      CREATE SEQUENCE Category_ID_seq;
      CREATE TABLE Category (
      ID INTEGER DEFAULT nextval('Category_ID_seq') NOT NULL,
      Description VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL,
      Type_ID INTEGER NOT NULL,
      CONSTRAINT PK_Categ PRIMARY KEY (ID),
      CONSTRAINT FK_Categ_Type FOREIGN KEY (Type_ID) REFERENCES Type (ID)
      );

      I have two local entity BMP beans - TypeBean and CategoryBean that work with these tables. Also I have one remote session bean (OSISManagerBean) that allows user to access tables. For both Type and Category beans I have value objects: TypeInfo and CategoryInfo. Entity beans do not have references to each other, they are not reentrant, but following client code deadlocks during first call to CategoryBean.ejbStore() (though it works OK with Sun j2eesdk):

      public class Client {

      public static void main(String[] args) {
      try {
      Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
      env.put("java.naming.factory.initial", "org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");
      env.put("java.naming.provider.url", "jnp://193.219.42.29:1099");
      env.put("java.naming.factory.url.pkgs", "org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces");
      Context initial = new InitialContext(env);
      Object objref = initial.lookup("ejb/OSISManagerBean");

      OSISManagerHome home = (OSISManagerHome)PortableRemoteObject.narrow(objref, OSISManagerHome.class);

      OSISManager manager = home.create();
      Collection types = manager.getAllTypes();
      Iterator iterator = types.iterator();
      while (iterator.hasNext()) {
      TypeInfo typeInfo = (TypeInfo)iterator.next();
      System.out.println("TypeInfo: id = " + typeInfo.getId() + ", description = " + typeInfo.getDescription());

      Collection categories = manager.getCategoriesByType(typeInfo.getId().intValue());
      Iterator iterator2 = categories.iterator();
      while (iterator2.hasNext()) {
      CategoryInfo categoryInfo = (CategoryInfo)iterator2.next();
      System.out.println(" CategoryInfo: " + categoryInfo);
      }
      }
      } catch (Exception ex) {
      System.err.println("Caught an unexpected exception!");
      ex.printStackTrace();
      }
      }

          To be honest: I did not read the whole code maybe you could provide a smaller version.
          But there is something I do not like:
          Why are you getting the database connection in setEntityContext and releasing the connection in unsetEntityContext ? IIRC setEntityContext will be called right after instantiation and before the entity bean will be put in the pool. Remember you could have 10000 or more entity beans in the pool.
          So, you do not have a deadlock but the database is running out of connections.
          Try to get a connection right before a SQL-Command and release the connection as fast as possible.
          JBoss will "cache" the connection, so a second call to get a connection will be pretty fast.

          regards
