Atomic Transactions in standalone-full.xml

[manuel_uberti]

Hi,

is it possible to add whatever is needed to enable Atomic Transactions in standalone-full.xml?

As I understood from https://github.com/jboss-developer/jboss-eap-quickstarts/tree/7.1.x-develop/wsat-simple, I need to use WildFly with standalone-xts.xml. However, company requirement here is to use standalone-full.xml.

I tried a diff on both files, and found only these 2 differences:

<extension module="org.jboss.as.xts"/>

<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:xts:2.0">
            <host name="default-host"/>
            <xts-environment url="http://${jboss.bind.address:127.0.0.1}:8080/ws-c11/ActivationService"/>
            <default-context-propagation enabled="true"/>
</subsystem>

So copied them both in my standalone-full.xml. I added org.jboss.narayana.xts to my pom.xml and then configured the client of the web services I need to use like this:

public static void enableWsAtomicTransaction(final BindingProvider bindingProvider) {
    bindingProvider.getBinding().getHandlerChain().add(new JaxWSHeaderContextProcessor());    
}

And added the handler in handler-chain.xml:

<handler>
      <handler-name>JaxWSHeaderContextProcessor</handler-name>
      <handler-class>com.arjuna.mw.wst11.service.JaxWSHeaderContextProcessor</handler-class>
</handler>

When trying to deploy my EAR I get this exception:

2016-09-06 12:29:44,300 WARN  [org.jboss.modules] (MSC service thread 1-6) Failed to define class com.arjuna.mw.wst11.service.JaxWSHeaderContextProcessor in Module "deployment.mdw-ear-0.5.6-SNAPSHOT.ear:main" from Service Module Loader: java.lang.IllegalAccessError: Failed to link com/arjuna/mw/wst11/service/JaxWSHeaderContextProcessor (Module "deployment.mdw-ear-0.5.6-SNAPSHOT.ear:main" from Service Module Loader): class com.arjuna.mw.wst11.service.JaxWSHeaderContextProcessor cannot access its superclass com.arjuna.mw.wst11.service.JaxBaseHeaderContextProcessor

Manuel,

standalone-xts.xml is standalone-full.xml with XTS added on top of it. So you can either copy the missing bits or rename the file.

Seems that you're missing a manifest dependency on org.jboss.xts, thus the handler cannot access its parent class.

[manuel_uberti]

Hi gytis, thanks for the prompt answer.

Do you mean I just need to add an entry like this to my pom.xml?

<build>
        <pluginManagement>
            <plugins>
                <plugin>
                    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                    <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
                    <configuration>
                        <archive>
                            <manifestEntries>
                                <Dependencies>org.jboss.xts</Dependencies>
                            </manifestEntries>
                        </archive>
                    </configuration>
                </plugin>
            </plugins>
        </pluginManagement>
</build>

We are using a BOM structure, so I added that to the relevant pom.xml where the class is actually used, but I am still getting the same error.

[gytis]

Yes that should do it. Didn't it work?

[manuel_uberti]

No, same error.

If you need an example of our pom structure, this is it: narayana-test/MDW at master · manuel-uberti/narayana-test · GitHub

[gytis]

Which version of the application server do you use?

[manuel_uberti]

10.0.0.Final

[gytis]

If I understand correctly you're using WS-AT directly (without bridging with JTA). In that case take a look at the raw api quickstart: quickstart/XTS/raw-xts-api-demo at master · jbosstm/quickstart · GitHub. I recommend checking out 5.3.3.Final tag (it will work on WildFly 10).

Also, if you're running on mac you'll need to add the following to standalone.config:

if $darwin ; then

    # Add the apple gui packages for the gui client

    JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Djboss.modules.system.pkgs=com.apple.laf,com.apple.laf.resources"

fi

However, if you're using bridging with JTA you don't need to set up handlers. In this case take a look at these quickstarts: quickstart/XTS/wsat-jta-multi_service at master · jbosstm/quickstart · GitHub and quickstart/XTS/wsat-jta-multi_hop at master · jbosstm/quickstart · GitHub . Their usage instructions are not exact on 5.3.3.Final, but I've updated them on master branch.

[manuel_uberti]

Thank you gytis. I'll follow the first quickstart you linked and try with 5.3.3.Final. I'll let you know.

[manuel_uberti]

I keep getting the same exception. I am assuming this is a problem related to my setup, so I'll copy the relative parts of my pom.xml files.

Manuel,

I've just built MDW project (narayana-test/MDW at master · manuel-uberti/narayana-test · GitHub) and deployed mdw-ear-0.5.6-SNAPSHOT.ear to the freshly built WildFly 10.0.0.Final and I didn't get any errors (here's the log MDW deployment to WildFly 10.0.0.Final log · GitHub ). Is this what you're deploying?

[manuel_uberti]

No, that project was related to another issue: Re: CDI BeanManager cannot find an instance of requested type

However, I built that project starting from the MDW project I am working on here. So BOM is actually the same. Adding XTS to that gave me the reported error.

[gytis]

Could you provide a reproducer for this issue? Because at the moment I cannot spot the issue.

[tomjenkinson]

Without a reproducer I think we have to assume the system is working as expected.

[manuel_uberti]

Sorry for the late reply. I still have the error, but I haven't been able to get a reproducer to help you understanding the issue.

As soon as I got some time (busy schedule these days), I will give it another try.

Thanks for your patience.
