How to make Hibernate Transaction object in recursive call - spring

Question

I am getting below error in my console when I call recursively a method. The update query is running fine but it will not be updating record in the database.
org.springframework.transaction.TransactionSystemException: Could not commit Hibernate transaction; nested exception is org.hibernate.TransactionException: Transaction not successfully started
public boolean abcMethod() {
Transaction txn = session.beginTransaction();
String querySqlSold = "UPDATE abc_table SET inventory_type='SOLD', status='ACTIVE' where set_id="
+ setId + " and game_num=" + gameMaster.getGameNum() + " and priceScheme=" + prizeSchemeId;
SQLQuery querySold = session.createSQLQuery(querySqlSold);
querySold.executeUpdate();
String querySqlSelect = "SELECT set_id FROM abc_table where inventory_type='UPCOMING' and `status`='ACTIVE' and game_num="
+ gameMaster.getGameNum() + " and priceScheme=" + prizeSchemeId;
List list = session.createSQLQuery(querySqlSelect).list();
int newSetId = Integer.valueOf(list.get(0).toString());
if (newSetId != 0) {
String querySqlCurrent = "UPDATE abc_table SET inventory_type='CURRENT' where game_num="
+ gameMaster.getGameNum() + " and priceScheme=" + prizeSchemeId + " and set_id=" + newSetId;
SQLQuery queryCurrent = session.createSQLQuery(querySqlCurrent);
queryCurrent.executeUpdate();
txn.commit();
return true;
} else {
JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject();
jsonObject.put("errorCode", "809");
jsonObject.put("errorMsg", "finished");
throw new CustomException(jsonObject.toString());
}
public void xyzMethod() {
abcMethod();
abcMethod();
}

You might try something like this
try {
tx = session.beginTransaction();
if (!tx.wasCommitted()){
tx.commit();
}
} catch (Exception exp) {
tx.rollback();
}
It should help you understand the problem better.
