Spring JPA Hibernate valid configuration not working with JdbcTemplate? - spring

I do have a working configuration in Spring for JPA with Hibernate provider:
<bean id="entityManagerFactory" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean">
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource"/>
<property name="loadTimeWeaver">
<bean class="org.springframework.instrument.classloading.InstrumentationLoadTimeWeaver"/>
</property>
<property name="jpaVendorAdapter">
<bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.HibernateJpaVendorAdapter">
<property name="showSql" value="true"/>
</bean>
</property>
<property name="jpaProperties">
<props>
<prop key="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto">create</prop>
</props>
</property>
</bean>
<bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.support.PersistenceAnnotationBeanPostProcessor" />
<tx:annotation-driven mode="aspectj"/>
<bean id="jpaTransactionManager" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.JpaTransactionManager"/>
This configuration is working in a small Spring based web-app.
But, when I insert the same configuration into an other existing Spring based web-app, I do get the following exception:
javax.persistence.TransactionRequiredException: no transaction is in progress
I think it has some conflict with Spring JDBC Templates:
<bean id="mysqlTemplate"
class="org.springframework.jdbc.core.namedparam.NamedParameterJdbcTemplate">
<constructor-arg ref="dataSource" />
</bean>
How can I get this to work side by side?

"no transaction in progress" just means you're trying to use an EntityManager somewhere and you didn't start a transaction first. The stack trace will tell you exactly where that is. Since you're using annotation-driven transactions, just make sure you have an appropriate #Transactional somewhere up the call chain from the location where the exception is happening.

spring bean optional property

I am using a data source defined in tomcat in my spring configuration as shown in the below xml.
It can happen sometimes that this data source may not be defined in the context.xml of tomcat.
In such cases , the context initialization fails since myDS is not found.
Is it possible to configure the datasource as optional so that application initialisation is not impacted ?
There can be a run time error when this data source is accessed , which is acceptable
<bean id="myDataSource" class="org.springframework.jndi.JndiObjectFactoryBean">
<property name="jndiName" value="java:comp/env/jdbc/myDS"/>
</bean>
<bean id="myEntityManagerFactory"
class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean">
<property name="dataSource" ref="myDataSource" />
<property name="persistenceXmlLocation" value="classpath:META-INF/persistence.xml" />
<property name="packagesToScan" value="com..XX.XX" />
<property name="persistenceUnitName" value="myPU" />
<property name="jpaVendorAdapter">
<bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.HibernateJpaVendorAdapter">
<property name="showSql" value="#{systemProperties['showSql'] == null ? 'true' : systemProperties['showSql'] }" />
</bean>
</property>
<property name="persistenceUnitPostProcessors">
<list>
<ref bean="wrkflw-punitpostprocessor" />
</list>
</property>
<property name="jpaProperties">
<props>
<prop key="hibernate.dialect">#{systemProperties['dbDialect']}</prop>
</props>
</property>
</bean>
Thanks

You may check the DelegatingDataSource, you could encapsulate the logic to load the datasource from JNDI within its instantiation. For your application there will be always a DataSource there, but in some cases (whenever its not able to load the DataSource from JNDI) there is no delegation.

Spring - two persistence units with different JPA providers

Is it possible to have two persistence units, one with Hibernate to work with some entities and another with EclipseLink to work with other entities in Spring framework?
The following should work:
<bean id="schema1EM" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean">
...
<property name="jpaVendorAdapter">
<bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.HibernateJpaVendorAdapter">
...
</bean>
</property>
<property name="packagesToScan" value="org.example.domain.schema1"/>
</bean>
<bean id="schema2EM" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean">
...
<property name="jpaVendorAdapter">
<bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.EclipseLinkJpaVendorAdapter">
...
</bean>
</property>
<property name="packagesToScan" value="org.example.domain.schema2"/>
</bean>
<jpa:repositories base-package="org.example.data.schema1" entity-manager-factory-ref="schema1EM"/>
<jpa:repositories base-package="org.example.data.schema2" entity-manager-factory-ref="schema2EM"/>
schema1EM will be assigned to all repositories declared under the package org.example.data.schema1 and schema2EM will be assigned to those under org.example.data.schema2. You will have to segregated the domain classes and repository interfaces by packages so that the Spring auto-wiring can work.

How could I use Spring's TransactionInterceptor with JPA?

I have an existing project using Spring 3 and Hibernate 3. I have the following code in order to "safe-guard" the database consistency. If I'm going to convert the project into JPA, how could I resolve the transactionManager property inside the transactionInterceptor bean since JPA using persistence.xml and doesn't make use of dataSource and sessionFactory?
<bean id="transactionInterceptor"
class="org.springframework.transaction.interceptor.TransactionInterceptor">
<property name="transactionManager" ref="transactionManager" />
<property name="transactionAttributes">
<props>
<prop key="save">PROPAGATION_REQUIRED</prop>
</props>
</property>
</bean>
<bean id="transactionManager"
class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.HibernateTransactionManager">
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
<property name="sessionFactory" ref="sessionFactory" />
</bean>
Try using a configuration similar to the below xml snippet. This has been tested with Hibernate 4, but I would expect it to work with version 3 as well.
<!-- EntityManagerFactory configuration that doesn't need a persistence.xml -->
<bean id="entityManagerFactory" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean"
p:dataSource-ref="dataSource"
p:packagesToScan="${jpa.entity.packages}">
<property name="jpaVendorAdapter">
<bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.HibernateJpaVendorAdapter"
p:showSql="${hibernate.show_sql}"/>
</property>
<property name="jpaProperties">
<props>
<prop key="hibernate.format_sql">${hibernate.format_sql}</prop>
<prop key="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto">${hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto}</prop>
</props>
</property>
</bean>
<bean id="transactionManager" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.JpaTransactionManager">
<property name="entityManagerFactory" ref="entityManagerFactory"/>
</bean>
<!-- Scans for classes/methods with #Transactional annotation to apply the
transaction management aspect (TransactionInterceptor) on them. -->

spring transaction and aop

I'm writing a simple application with spring, I defined my daos and services with spring annotations and defined hibernate as the orm and transaction manager like this:
<bean id="dataSource" class="org.apache.tomcat.jdbc.pool.DataSource"
destroy-method="close" p:driverClassName="${jdbc.driverClassName}"
p:url="${jdbc.databaseurl}" p:username="${jdbc.username}" p:password="${jdbc.password}" />
<bean id="sessionFactory"
class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.LocalSessionFactoryBean">
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
<property name="configLocation">
<value>classpath:env/hibernate.cfg.xml</value>
</property>
<property name="packagesToScan">
<list>
<value>com.skyfence.management.cm.model</value>
</list>
</property>
<property name="hibernateProperties">
<props>
<prop key="hibernate.dialect">${jdbc.dialect}</prop>
<prop key="hibernate.show_sql">true</prop>
<prop key="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto">create</prop>
</props>
</property>
</bean>
<tx:annotation-driven />
<bean id="transactionManager"
class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.HibernateTransactionManager">
<property name="sessionFactory" ref="sessionFactory" />
</bean>
like you can see I'm using annotations for the transactions management,
Until this point everything works fine.
Then I added a Logger Aspect to add log4j printouts before and after every method so I added the following to my applicationContext.xml
<aop:aspectj-autoproxy />
and created a new annotated aspect class:
#Aspect
#Component
public class LoggingAspect
{
}
The problem is that from that point hibernate is no longer working and I'm getting the following exception:
org.hibernate.HibernateException: No Session found for current thread
I suspect that somehow by adding the aspect the transactions stopped working but I have no idea how to solve it
Any help will be appreciated,

EJB 3.0 -> Spring -> JPA (JTA as transaction manager)

I am currently working on a project that includes EJB 3.0 (stateless SB), JPA (Hibernate as the provider), JTA as transaction manager. The app server is JBoss AS 7. Spring is used for integrating EJB and JPA.
All seems to be working fine, except if there is any exception that occurs in the EJB, then the persistence unit is closed by Spring. On the subsequent request, the persistence unit is again created, which becomes time consuming and also should not happen in the ideal situation.
Below are the configuration details
persistence.xml
<persistence-unit name="test" transaction-type="RESOURCE_LOCAL">
<class>com.test.User</class>
<properties>
<property name="hibernate.dialect" value="org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect" />
</properties>
</persistence-unit>
spring-application-context.xml
<bean class="org.springframework.dao.annotation.PersistenceExceptionTranslationPostProcessor"/>
<bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.support.PersistenceAnnotationBeanPostProcessor"/>
<jee:jndi-lookup id="dataSource" jndi-name="java:/datasources/test" />
<bean id="entityManagerFactory"
class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean">
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
<property name="jpaVendorAdapter">
<bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.HibernateJpaVendorAdapter">
<property name="generateDdl" value="false" />
<property name="database" value="MYSQL" />
<property name="showSql" value="true" />
<property name="databasePlatform" value="org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect"/>
</bean>
</property>
<property name="jpaPropertyMap">
<map>
<entry key="hibernate.transaction.manager_lookup_class" value="org.hibernate.transaction.JBossTransactionManagerLookup"></entry>
<entry key="hibernate.current_session_context_class" value="jta" />
<entry key="hibernate.connection.release_mode" value="auto" />
</map>
</property>
<property name="persistenceUnitPostProcessors">
<list>
<bean class="com.transaction.processor.JtaPersistenceUnitPostProcessor">
<property name="jtaMode" value="true"/>
<property name="jtaDataSource" ref="dataSource"/>
</bean>
</list>
</property>
</bean>
<bean id="transactionManager"
class="org.springframework.transaction.jta.JtaTransactionManager">
<property name="transactionManagerName" value="java:/TransactionManager"></property>
<property name="autodetectUserTransaction" value="false"></property>
</bean>
<tx:annotation-driven transaction-manager="transactionManager"/>
The class JtaPersistenceUnitPostProcessor is responsible for setting the transaction-type as JTA and the datasource to jta-datasource.
Could anyone please provide any help on this.
Thanks in advance.
<bean id="transactionManager"
class="org.springframework.transaction.jta.JtaTransactionManager">
<property name="transactionManagerName" value="java:jboss/TransactionManager" />
<property name="userTransactionName" value="java:comp/UserTransaction" />
</bean>
<tx:annotation-driven transaction-manager="transactionManager" />
<bean class="org.springframework.dao.annotation.PersistenceExceptionTranslationPostProcessor" />
you didn't specify any error message . you can add these lines in your configuration file .
I see you use JTA transaction manager and use that only if you use distributed Transaction and use JNDI. JTA tran. manager listens TX happening through connection acquired from JNDI datasource. If you have datasource created in your code and is not a part of Web container but is limited inside app. container in your web server, JTA wont work.
If you want to implement Tx manager with in a single app. context go for JPA transaction manager which is very reliable.
