HibernateTransactionManager 'running within' exception message can be misleading [SPR-9496]

[spring-projects-issues]

Sam Brannen opened SPR-9496 and commented

Status Quo

If you configure two instances of HibernateTransactionManager (A and B) for different SessionFactory instances (A and B) -- potentially using the same underlying DataSource - and then a transactional method for A calls a transactional method for B, an IllegalTransactionStateException is thrown with the following exception message (hard coded in HibernateTransactionManager.doBegin()):

Pre-bound JDBC Connection found! HibernateTransactionManager does not support running within DataSourceTransactionManager if told to manage the DataSource itself. It is recommended to use a single HibernateTransactionManager for all transactions on a single DataSource, no matter whether Hibernate or JDBC access.

Granted the configuration described above may be the result of a configuration error, in any case the exception message can be misleading since the HibernateTransactionManager might actually be running within a transaction manager that is not a DataSourceTransactionManager.

Deliverables

1. Verify that the exception message above is generated regardless of the type of the enclosing transaction manager.
2. If the above verification is positive, modify the exception message so that it does not hard code DataSourceTransactionManager in the text.

I just had a problem with this message.

In my scenario, I had a Hibernate entity called Task, which had a collection of another entity (Element). This collection was annotated with @Cascade({PERSIST, MERGE, DELETE_ORPHAN}).

My test suite had a test failing with "org.hibernate.TransientObjectException: object references an unsaved transient instance - save the transient instance before flushing: package.Elemento".

From there on, all tests failed with the same message: "org.springframework.transaction.IllegalTransactionStateException: Pre-bound JDBC Connection found! HibernateTransactionManager does not support running within DataSourceTransactionManager if told to manage the DataSource itself. It is recommended to use a single HibernateTransactionManager for all transactions on a single DataSource, no matter whether Hibernate or JDBC access."

The "Pre-bound JDBC Connection found" was really misleading, since it talks about data sources and the real problem doesn't seem to be related to this.

I have the same error with Spring Boot 1.3.2.RELEASE:

Two persistence configuration (two entity managers factories with the same data source... need to have two different persistence units), one annotated with @EnableTransactionManagement(mode = AdviceMode.ASPECTJ)

Just overridden findOne from CrudRepository and annotated my service method with @Transactional.

MyController (@RepositoryRestController) > MyService (@Transactional) > MyRepository (@RepositoryRestResource with @Override findOne).

(but there is no issue if I use GET for findOne directly exposed by CrudRepository interface)

My spring boot 1.4.7 is running normally and, after a few days, it starts to randomly throwing this exception. Some requests works and others throws it.

My app currently uses 1 datasource (c3p0 pooled) with JPARepositories.
I have 2 more beans over this datasource: JdbcTemplate and TransactionTemplate.

To solve this, I just need to restart my app.

I'll see what we can do about that exception message since it may indeed be misleading.

As for that exception randomly appearing, some threads - or maybe even just a single thread in the pool - seem to have a left-over connection handle bound to a thread-local there. This is effectively a leak but unfortunately it'll be hard to track where it came from.

Juergen, I think I found a way how this can occur. It looks the ahead-locals are not cleaned up when an exception is raised while a transaction is being started. See the following error log:

Hibernate sets the auto-commit flag to 0 when the JDBC transaction is started. Something goes wrong and an EOFException is raised by the MySQL driver. It ends up here in doBegin() of HibernateTransactionManager.

		catch (Exception ex) {
			SessionFactoryUtils.closeSession(session);
			throw new CannotCreateTransactionException("Could not open Hibernate Session for transaction", ex);
		}

I don't see any cleaning up being done here. Could that be?
