Two phase commit and bean managed transactions

To all the Transaction GURUS!
          Hi guys (-and gals).
          I've been doing J2EE for quite a while, but today was my first at
          XA-Transactions and Bean Managed Transactions.
          Why am I doing this?
          ====================
          Well I have to be able to controll the transactionalbehaviour of my
          bean
          during runtime, since some bean calls would cause a transactional
          overflow due to the stress they would cause to the system, whereas
          smaller bean calls need to run in one transaction.
          -> Therefore I need Bean Managed Transactions
          Since the bean does a call on two Database Connections it has to use a
          XA-Transaction.
          -> Therefore I need XA-Transactions.
          Abstract
          ========
          - I just can't get a User TransAction into the right Status it stays
          in 'STATUS_NO_TRANSACTION' all the time
          - Therefore the SQL Commands can be comitted 'java.sql.SQLException:
          Does not support SQL execution with no global transaction'
          - Therefore I can't do a rollback 'java.lang.IllegalStateException:
          Transaction does not exist'
          - Therefore I wrote this mail.
          I don't want to be a smart-"ass" writing such a detailed and indepth
          mail. I just would like to show that I tried, and would like to have
          some replies from you guys.
          Below are my configurations, code and logfiles.
          Thanx for taking your time and hope that the other people may learn
          something as well.

          CONCLUSION
          ==========
          I'm going nuts.
          I just don't get it.
          The transaction is the same. I don't change the Connection. I start
          the Transaction at the beginning before I do anything!
          Please guys help me out.
          Thx alot.

Hi Priscilla
          (did you ever see the movie ? :-))
          Well I moved away from the idea of using bean managed transaction. I'll
          be using Container Managed Transactions. To modify the
          transactionalbehaviour I'll write proxymethods which have certain
          different containermanaged transaction properties, but which all call
          the same private methods.
          But it works! Here is my experience:
          - I was doing a DDL statement: I was trying to create new Tables, which
          is a definite "no-go"
          - pay careful attention to:
          http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs60/jta/trxejb.html#1051405
                    and
          http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs60/jta/trxejb.html#1051741
          and use these Settings for the Pool, don't ask me why, but it took me
          hours to find it out by myself:
               <JDBCConnectionPool CapacityIncrement="5"
          DriverName="weblogic.jdbc.oci.xa.XADataSource" InitialCapacity="1"
          LoginDelaySeconds="1" MaxCapacity="2" Name="oracleSecurityPool"
          Properties="user=xxx; password=xxx; server=xxx.xxx.xxx"
          RefreshMinutes="5" Targets="fbsserver" TestConnectionsOnRelease="true"
          TestTableName="Users" SupportsLocalTransaction="true"/>
          where as the server (shown as: xxx.xxx.xxx) is the TNS Name of the
          Oracle Driver.
          It works great.
          Another thing you guys might want to do is write a simple StatelessSB
          which does JDBC calls and two different database Connections.
          Then write a UnitTest which calls this bean a couple hundred times (with
          the same transaction). Have one test do clean writes, and another which
          causes some SQL-Exception (too long Data Columns, or likewise).
          Always count the entries and see if everything worked out. We're using
          this SetupConstruction to test new combinations of AS(sorry Priscilla) /
          Database / Db-Drivers to have a "standard test".
          I know my two cents were uncalled for, but it might save you some
          time.....
          thanx for your help
          Stefan

          Hi Stefan,
          Looks like you have not actually begun a transaction by calling
          UserTransaction.begin(),
          so your setupTables method is really executing with no transaction
          context.

About Container-managed Transactions and Bean-managed Transactions

as the document of weblogic7.0 describe the differents of Container-managed
          Transactions and Bean-managed Transactions,and in the document,It tell us
          details of using Bean-managed Transactions,such as \:
          import javax.naming.*;import javax.transaction.UserTransaction;.....
          import java.sql.*;import java.util.*;
          UserTransaction tx = (UserTransaction)
          ctx.lookup("javax.transaction.UserTransaction");tx.begin();
          tx.commit() //or tx.rollback
          but how to use Container-managed Transactions?
          what is EJB's deployment descriptor? can someone tell me?
          i wonder someone will show me an example of how to use Container-managed
          Transactions.
          thanks
          fish


Many if not all of the WLS EJB examples use container-managed
          transactions. That's a good place to start.
          I'd also recommend that you pick up a decent EJB book. There's several
          on the market right now.

SAP Transaction in Two phase Commit ?

Hi all,
When we make a connection to SAP system from .NET application using .NET connector, we can make calls to transactional BAPI/RFCs. But is there any way in which we can make SAP transaction take part in MS DTC (Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator) transactions?
We want to implement a two phase commit and hence this question. Please let us know if you are aware of any mechanism using which we can implement a two phase commit.
The call scenario is described below:
TransactionScope
1.     SQL_StoredProc1();
2.     SQL_StoresProc2();
     10.           SAP_TransactionBAPI();
     11.          SQLStoredProcn();
      12.           SQLTransaction_Commit();
      13.      SAPTransaction_Commit();
Exception ()
SQLTransaction_Rollback();
SAPTransaction_Rollback();
In the above case all the statements have to be executed successfully or they have to be rolled back. Lets think of the situation where all the statements up to line 13 have been executed successfully, but there was a failure during the commit of SAP, and then we have to rollback the SQL transaction also which is already committed.
This situation can be handled if and only if SAP transaction manager follows XA transaction protocol and it can include itself in MSDTC. So that every transaction manager votes for the commit (it can be called half commit) if the transaction is successful otherwise all the transactions should be rolled back.
Can anybody tell me the way to include SAP transaction manager in MSDTC if it at all possible?

Hi Saket,
I did not understand much of your query but just wanted to know how are you making a connection to the backend here?
If using DataSources and if the datasource is configured directly in the EP server (using Visual Administrator), you have an option of the required 2-way commit.
The datasource takes care of it directly. Apart from this, the datasource will also take cre of the connection pooling.
Hope this helps.
Awaiting Reply.

Container-managed / bean-managed transaction demarcation

I am trying to make sure I understand container-managed and bean-managed transaction demarcation and in particular where you have one bean calling another bean. What happens where one of the beans has container-managed transaction demarcation and the other bean-managed transaction demarcation. In fact the initial question to ask is, is this allowed?
Lets use an application scenario to illustrate the issue. The application has a payment transaction. Payments can be received in one of two ways:
1. As a payment at a branch where the individual payment is processed on a client application and resulting in the processing of a single payment transaction.
2. As a batch of payments received from a bank containing, potentially, thousands of payment transactions.
The proposed implementation for this uses two session beans. The first is a Payment session bean that implements the business logic as appropriate calling entity beans to persist the change. The second is a BatchPayment session bean. This processes the batch of payment transactions received from the bank. The BatchPayment reads through the batch of payments from a bank calling the Payment session bean for each payment transaction.
Lets look at the transactional properties of both session beans. In order to support the client application the Payment session bean can implicitly enforce transactional integrity and is therefore set to container-managed transaction demarcation. However the BatchPayment session bean will want to explicitly specify transaction demarcation for performance reasons. The transactional "commit" process is relatively expensive. When processing a large batch of transactions rather than performing a commit after every transaction is processed we want to perform the commit after a number of transactions have been processed. For example, we may decide that after every 100 transactions have been processed we commit. The processing will have a shorter elapsed time as we have not had to perform 99 commit processes. So the BatchPayment session bean will want to explicitly specify its transaction demarcation and will therefore be defined with bean-managed transaction demarcation.
How would this be implemented? A possible solution is:
Payment session bean implemented with container-managed transaction demarcation with transaction scope set to Required.
BatchPayment session bean implemented with bean-managed transaction demarcation with transaction scope set to Required.
When the client application is run it calls the Payment bean and the container-managed transaction demarcation ensures the transactional integrity of that transaction.
When a BatchPayment process is run it explicitly determines the transaction demarcation. Lets say that after every 100 Payment transactions (through 100 calls to the Payment session bean) have been processed the BatchPayment bean issues a commit. In this scenario however we have mixed container-managed and bean-managed transaction demarcation. Hence my original question. Can container-managed and bean-managed transaction demarcation be mixed? If not how is it possible to implement the requirements as described above?
Thanks for any thoughts.
Paul

BatchPayment session bean implemented with bean-managed transaction demarcation with transaction scope set to Required.Didn't quite understand this sentence.... if it's BMT it has no declarative transaction attributes such as "Required"....
Anyway, first of all I'll have to ask, Why at all would you want to commit in the middle of the business method? to get as much through as possible before a potential crash? :-)
Can container-managed and bean-managed transaction demarcation be mixed?Yes, of course. Just remember that the "direction" you are refering to ->
a BMT SB that propagates it's transaction to a method in a CMT SB that is demarcated with "Required" is the simplest case. If it were "reversed", or for that matter any BMT that might be called within an active transaction context must perform logic to manipulate the transaction state. For instance(and most common case), checking to see if a transaction is active and if so not to do anything(just use the one that is already active).
If not how is it possible to implement the requirements as described above?You could also implement this scenario with CMTs all the way through. your BatchPayment SB could consist of two methods, one (say, execute(Collection paymentsToExecute) ) with "Supports", and another(say executeBatchUnit(Collection paymentsToExecute, int beginIndex, int endIndex) ) with "RequiresNew".
then have the first just call the other with indexes denoting each time a group of payments.
Still, it does seem more suitable using BMT for these kind of things.....
Hope this helped....

Data-source.xml - BaseResourceException - two phase commit

Hi,
I am seeing the following exception.   Please let me know how to fix this.
thanks
Sunita
com.sap.engine.services.connector.exceptions.BaseResourceException: The resource "xxx" does not support two-phase commit and cannot be enlisted in the current transaction, because another non supporting two-phase commit resource is already enlisted for component "webContainer/applications/JavaEE/YY-TPRO/YYr-TPRO" in application "JavaEE/YY-TPRO".

HI,
Thanks for the response, I already went through these threads.
My exception seems to be related to this - Problem with connection sharing if J2EE transaction is running
and suggested solutions seems to be:
The problem is caused when there is an inappropriate attempt to open a second connection in an active JTA transaction. There is either an attempt to get a second connection from an un-shareable non-XA DataSource or an attempt to get it from another non-XA DataSource. You have to:
●     Use no more than one connection from this data source while the JTA transaction is active or
●     Declare the data source as shareable, depending on your application logic.
Question is, How can I make data source as shareable??
This application worked fine in JBoss, weblogic and now we are trying to port it to NetWeaver.
Is any of the above options are configurable in data-sources.xml?
Thanks for your guidance and response.

Weblogic Two Phase commit

Dears,
we are facing slowness problem while migration application from weblogic 7 to weblogic 11g.
Our Application use EJB 2.1 CMP and oracle database
In web-logic 7 we use global transaction and emulate two phase commit .Our application works fine
If we set global transaction as last logging resource or Emulate two phase commit in weblogic 11g we found so much slowness in the application.
Kindly help me in this regard

Hi,
          Jolt is just a Java client API for Tuxedo services. Typically, Jolt is
          used by a client to invoke a Tuxedo service. From what I could gather
          from your post, you are probably doing some JDBC work and then calling
          out to a Tuxedo service and want the work done with the JDBC/XA driver
          and the database work done by the Tuxedo service to be comitted/aborted
          transactionally? Is this correct?
          If so, then you probably want to look at the JET API (essentially Jolt
          without the need for a JSL/JSH) for invoking Tuxedo services directly
          (instead of through the JSH) from a WLE Java Server. It should be fully
          capable of doing what I have described above.
          Hope this helps,

Bean Managed Transactions and rollback

Hi Everybody,
I am using Bean Managed Transactions in a Message Bean which is called every some time by an EJB3 timer. This Message Bean subsequently calls a Session Bean which uses Container Managed Transactions and uses the default transaction attribute which is SUPPORTS. The Session Bean methods might sometime throw a System Exception(inheriting from RuntimeException) which will rollback the Bean Managed Transaction which was started from the Message Bean.
When this happens and I try to invoke userTransaction.rollback() I get invalid transaction state exception and I suppose this means that is already rolled back.
Is there a way to get another transaction or set the transaction back to a valid state so I can carry on with some persistence tasks or the only way to do that is by suppressing the RuntimeException and throwing an Application Exception having the *@ApplicationException(rollback=false)* annotation? Can I suppress a System Exception though?
Thank you in advance!

Hi All,
I would like to know whether we can use JDBC Connection Object's commit and rollback
methods to control Transaction in Bean Managed Transactions or not.You may use the JDBC connection's transaction support from an EJB. That being said, you
need to understand that it won't be the transaction that started declaratively by the
EJB container nor would it be a bean-managed transaction started through
UserTransaction.
FWIW, I question why you'd want to do this though. I'd use container-managed
transactions and let the container handle this for you. The transaction manager
includes a 1PC optimization so it's not going to do an XA/2PC tx if you only have a
single resource in the tx. Also, the EJB container includes all the logic to properly
handle rollbacks when exceptions are thrown etc.
Finally, your code will more maintainable and reusable if you use the container-managed
tx + JTA resources. If I later wanted to call another EJB or another JTA resource (eg
JMS perhaps) I could do it without having to rewrite all of your code.

I understand that if we are using Multiple Resources and need to use Transaction
then going for JTA makes sense. If I am using only Resource,for example, Only One
Connection then we should be able to use Connection's Transaction control.
I understand that other way to do the transaction is to use Container's transaction
services.
Please respond at the earliest.

Thanks Dhiraj for helping,
I have a application module called TestAppModule. TestAppModule should be deployed as Bean Managed Service Bean. In the Remote of the Application Module, I chose BmtServiceBean. 3 files were created
RemoteTestAppModule.java

In Orion-ejb-jar.xml
<session-deployment name="testBc4jComponents.TestAppModule_bmservice"/>
I deployed the bean into oc4j.
In the Bean Where I am managing the Transaction.
Context ctx = new InitialContext();
Object home = ctx.lookup("testBc4jComponents.TestAppModule_bmservice");
TestAppModuleHome testAppHome = (TestAppModuleHome) PortableRemoteObject.narrow(home, TestAppModuleHome.class);
When I am looking up the Appmodule Bean, I reached an error stating "Serialization Error, The TestAppModuleImpl is not Serializable"

ADF Service Interface: two-phase commit issue for multiple data sources

In FusionApps, For a service interface we had to use two DataSource resources (in the ejb-jar.xml),
one is ApplicationServiceDBDS for SI and the other one is ApplicationDBDS(I don’t know the exact reason why this is needed, but when running the webservice, Framework was throwing an error asking for this) After adding these two, now(while running the webservice) we’re caught up with an error saying that unable to participate in two phase commit. I think this is because we added two dataSources, if we just use one dataSource everything is working fine.
Error message from app server:
"JDBC driver does not support XA, hence cannot be a participant in two-phase commit. To force this participation, set the GlobalTransactionsProtocol attribute to LoggingLastResource (recommended) or EmulateTwoPhaseCommit for the Data Source=ApplicationDB"
we have made the changes to ApplicationDB as said in the error message, but then the server is failing to start because of this.

Hi,
this is what the doc says - though not about two phase commit but transaction sharing:
"At runtime, the calling client and the ADF service may or may not participate in the same transaction, depending on the protocol used to invoke the service (either SOAP or RMI). Only the RMI protocol and a Java Transaction API (JTA) managed transaction support the option to call the service in the same transaction as the calling client."
When your application accesses a remote ADF Business Components service, each remote call is stateless, and the remote service will not participate in the same transaction as the business component that uses a service-enabled application module's service interface.
In the majority of the cases, calls to remote services will be informational in nature and will not make changes to remote objects. However, if you must use a remote service to make changes, then keep these points in mind:
An exception thrown by the remote service will cause the local transaction to fail.
If you successfully call a remote service that results in modifying data, and then subsequently your local transaction fails for any reason, then it is the responsibility of your error handling code to perform a compensating transaction against the remote service to "undo" the previous change made."

Configuration of two-phase-commit in OC4J 10.1.2

Configuration of two-phase-commit in OC4J 10.1.2 in application with multiple modules
We have an application ear file consisting of ejb-modules (mdb and slsb) and two web-modules. We are using Oracle's advanced queueing for messaging and CMT (all ejb use the Required transaction attribute). We need different datasources (OrionCMTDataSource) including that for aq, so we need two-phase-commit. The web clients use ejbs and browse the messaging system. Our 'orion-application.xml' includes a commit-coordinator configuration, and the database is setup correctly. The configuration works fine for mdbs, when sending messages to the queues. When a client starts after messages have been sent and consumed by the mdbs, oc4j complains that no commit-coordinator is defined in 'server.xml'. If we start the client first, it can access the queues, but then the mdbs complain. It seems that the first one "gets" the commit-coordinator and the second one fails.
Some questions:
Why isn't the second client type using the commit-coordinator configuration of the "orion-application.xml"?
Is such scenario not supported by OC4J?
How can I setup the application correctly?
How do I configure commit-coordinator with different datasources to the same database? (Commit-Coordinator is also this database)

Take a look 'How to Use a Custom Serializer with Oracle Application Server Web Services' [1].
In your case, you should be looking at BeanMultiRefSerializer (org.apache.soap.encoding.soapenc), which will serialize your data using href and providing a way to deal with cycles.
All the best,

Two Phase Commit on Slow Network

Can I implement two phase commit transaction using Windows 2000 Professional's Dial-Up Connection ? Where would I find information on this ? I connected two Windows 2000 Prof. PCs using Dial-Up Connection on Telephone line. Now if I try to ping service on other PC using TNSPING it gives me connection timed out, how should I tackle this issue ?

Hi Ioakim
Performing an atomic transaction(ACID) that spans a source system, BizTalk and then a different destination system is not possible. This is due to the nature of distributed transactions - it may not be practical to hold locks on resources(needed for atomic
transactions) that are spread across different networks. Given that there is no guarantee that the resources may be released in a reasonable amount of time, transactions in BizTalk can only be scoped to and from the BizTalk MessageBoxDb. Or in other words,
you can read a record to BizTalk transactionally and on the send side, send a message from BizTalk transactionally.
However, you can simulate/fake atomic transaction characteristics(although tricky) using compensation logic within BizTalk orchestrations. So, lets say you read+delete a record from SystemA into BizTalk, and that record has to be updated in SystemB.
If for some reason the insert to SystemB fails, you would have to write custom logic in a compensation block that then performs the reverse operation in SystemA - i.e., it inserts back the record in SystemA in this case. So, using compensating actions, it
is possible to ensure that all the systems involved are transactionally consistent at the end of the day.
There's an article from C.Young that discusses this in some detail-

Two Phase Commit with WLS6.1 SP2

          Hi,
          I am testing two phase commit using my own resource adapter on WLS 6.1 SP2. And
          I saw something rather strange. The two phase commit process went well at first.
          The first resource manager (RM) was start-ended and then prepare-committed without
          any error. The second RM was also start-ended and then prepare-committed. But
          before the second RM's XAResource.commit() could finish, the first RM's XAResource.commit()
          was called AGAIN, three times, all at the same time, on three different threads,
          with three different XIDs, none of them had ever appeared before, all with onePhase=true.
          Anyone has any similar experience?
          Thanks.

Bean-managed transaction with EJB 3.0

Hi,
I try to get a bean-managed transaction example running with EJB 3.0 under GlassFish v2ur2.
In order to demarcate the scenario I have to get me the UserTransaction which I get from the SessionContext. I would like to use it then like: UserTransaction ut = context.getUserTransaction();
I tried to get the SessionContext with the help of the EJB method setSessionContext which should be called by the container after instance creation.
However, setting a log output into that method does not show any call of this method.
So, how can I get this method called or is there another way to get the SessionContext for the UserTransaction to work ?
Are there any good and fully implemented examples for bean-managed transactions ?
Thanks for your help.
Regards

I found the solution for that my SessionContext was NULL and I could not use the UserTransaction.
The reason for it is that I injected the EJB with @EJB into my servlet and did a MyBean mybean = new MyBean();
That leads to a SessionContext which is NULL within my EJB.
If I use it without instantiating it it works fine.
Again, thanks for your help. At least it pointed me into the right direction.

How to recover in a two phase commit ?

I am implementing a two phase commit with Oracle XA in Oracle 8.1.6. I am wondering how I can recover from failures occur between the PREPARE and the COMMIT stage. If I lose the database connection after the changes have been prepared, then I can't find a way to rollback or commit the changes.
Appreciate any helps.

The iPod OS takes care of where/how to store the files on the iPod and it has not done this. This is why you need to get the files off your iPod first.
My goal is to connect my iPod to my Mac, launch iTunes, and all of what's on my iPod displays in iTunes after single-clicking the iPod's icon in the Source pane of iTunes' window.
This is very, very simple. This is how iTunes works normally.
Since you now have the stuff from your iPod on your computer (using Ollie's iPod Extractor), load them into iTunes.
Sync them to the iPod. This will update the iPod database so all of the files are seen/identified correctly by the iPod.
Set the iPod prefs in iTunes to manually update.
Now you can delete the stuff on your computer and iTunes and view/edit/delete the stuff on the iPod using iTunes.
The outcome of using the utilities suggested in previous posts is that all of what's on my iPod gets copied to my Mac's hard drive (which is not what I'm trying to accomplish) and then that displays in iTunes' Library.
Only because the files on the iPod are not "useable" with the iPod or iTunes right now.
This is not something you will have to do everytime.
Once you get them on your computer, you can do the above steps and you will not have to use any utilities.
Just use iTunes.
