EJB Transaction does not work

Question

Hi,
I have a servlet, a session bean, and an entity bean. A servlet doesn't have any transaction attribute, a session bean has Required, and an entity bean has Required. I have the code like the following:
Servlet:
EJBDelegate ed = new EJBDelegate();
TwoPhaseSB sb = ed.getTwoPhaseSB();
sb.testTransaction();Session Bean:
public void testTransaction() {
    try{
        TestInfoLocal testInfo;
        TestInfoLocalHome testInfoHome = TestInfoUtil.getLocalHome();
        testInfo = testInfoHome.create("525252", "353535", "transaction test insert", "etc");
        testInfo.setElement_id("111111");
        //There's no item which has its primary key as 7777, so there's exception error occurs   
        testInfo = testInfoHome.findByPrimaryKey(new Integer(7777));
    }catch(Exception e){
         e.printStackTrace();
}Since the code in testTransaction is supposed to run in the same transaction, if there's exception occurrs, isn't it supposed to rollback? I mean, creation of item and update should be rollback. But, the data is inserted and created although there's exception. Could anyone can give me the idea why transaction doesn't work? FYI, I'm using Weblogic8.1.

Yes, you're right. I am using CMP. I added the following exceptions to my session bean but still the changes are updated:
     }catch(EJBException e){     
          e.printStackTrace();
     }catch (NamingException e) {
          e.printStackTrace();
     }catch (CreateException e) {
          e.printStackTrace();
     }catch (FinderException e) {
          e.printStackTrace();
     } I tried to insert "TransactionRolledbackException", but it's not thrown in any statement since my beans are managed by container. Could you tell me what exception should I use? Or should I add some exception to my entity bean? Finder methods are throwing FinderException currently.
Thanks,
