Exception calling component @Destroy method: pricingRMSEm: java.lang.IllegalStateException: attempting to destroy the persistence context while an active transaction exists (try installing <transaction:ejb-transaction/>)

[vinaytadvi83]

We are doing application migration from JBoss 5 to Jboss 7.1.1 Final. Application uses Seam 2.1.2, Hibernate 3.3 and was developed to run on JBoss 5. While doing migration, all migration steps were followed. Application deployed successfully. While processing data, we are facing error related to Seam managed Persistence Context.

Exception calling component @Destroy method: pricingRMSEm:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: attempting to destroy the persistence context

while an active transaction exists (try installing

<transaction:ejb-transaction/>)

Application does asynchronous processing on data and this processes are trying to do activity in new transaction always. Transaction is handled manually through code.

(i.e. manually commit existing one and start new transaction, when ever TransactionalInvoker.doInNewTransaction() method called). With TRACE level log we can see that Seam tries to destroy Persistence Context even when there is active transaction. Which is causing application fail processing.

This issue has blocked our migration work. Any help is very much appreciated.
