Spring @Transactional not creating required transaction
- by Steve
Ok, so I've finally bowed to peer pressure and started using Spring in my web app :-)...
So I'm trying to get the transaction handling stuff to work, and I just can't seem to get it.
My Spring configuration looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans

</bean>
<!-- enables interpretation of the @Required annotation to ensure that dependency injection actually occures -->
<bean class="org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.RequiredAnnotationBeanPostProcessor"/>
<!-- enables interpretation of the @PersistenceUnit/@PersistenceContext annotations providing convenient

<bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.support.PersistenceAnnotationBeanPostProcessor"/>
<!-- uses the persistence unit defined in the META-INF/persistence.xml JPA configuration file -->
<bean id="entityManagerFactory" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalEntityManagerFactoryBean">
<property name="persistenceUnitName" value="CONOPS_PU" />
</bean>
<!-- transaction manager for use with a single JPA EntityManagerFactory for transactional data access
to a single datasource -->
<bean id="jpaTransactionManager" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.JpaTransactionManager">
<property name="entityManagerFactory" ref="entityManagerFactory"/>
</bean>
<!-- enables interpretation of the @Transactional annotation for declerative transaction managment
using the specified JpaTransactionManager -->
<tx:annotation-driven transaction-manager="jpaTransactionManager" proxy-target-class="true"/>
</beans>
persistence.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

</properties>
</persistence-unit>
</persistence>
The DAO method to save my domain object looks like this:
@Transactional(propagation=Propagation.REQUIRES_NEW)
protected final T saveOrUpdate (T model)
{
EntityManager em = emf.createEntityManager ( );
EntityTransaction trans = em.getTransaction ( );
System.err.println ("Transaction isActive () == " + trans.isActive ( ));
if (em != null)
{
try
{
if (model.getId ( ) != null)
{
em.persist (model);
em.flush ();
}
else
{
em.merge (model);
em.flush ();
}
}
finally
{
em.close ();
}
}
return (model);
}
So I try to save a copy of my Group object using the following code in my test case:
context = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext(configs);
dao = (GroupDao)context.getBean("groupDao");
dao.saveOrUpdate (new Group ());
This bombs with the following exception:

In addition, I get the following warnings when Spring first starts. Since these reference the entityManagerFactory and the transactionManager, they probably have some bearing on the problem, but I've no been able to decipher them enough to know what:

Does anyone have any idea what I'm missing? I'm totally stumped...
Thanks
