Let me try this again from the beginning... I want to have services (that start with the application, and runs the length of the application lifetime) so I define a POJO with a @Service and a method with a @PostConstruct. Everything is going well so far. I define a persistenceunit in persistence.xml and corresponding jdbc info in the (resin-)web.xml config. So my service looks like this:
@Service public class InitDBService { @PersistenceContext protected EntityManager em; @PersistenceUnit protected EntityManagerFactory emf; @PostConstruct public void postConstruct() { log.log(Level.INFO, "emf=" + emf + " em=" + em); if (emptyDB()) insertDefaultData(); } } > emf=AmberEntityManagerFactory[amber] em=EntityManagerProxy[amber] So I load up my webapp and away it goes. If I use amber (the native JPA impl) everything looks fine and the entity manager, and factory is injected as expected, and the data is queried (and inserted if empty). Now, if I switch to a hibernate backed persistenceunit (hbm) I get some kind of exception no matter how I do it. > emf=null em=EntityManagerTransactionProxy[hbm,null] I have tried using @TransactionAttributes, the UserTransaction object, and various other attempts without any success on the hibernate persistenceunit. Now, later in my code, in a servlet, I have the same code and it runs fine against the @PersistenceContext using the hibernate persistenceunit. I hope this makes a bit more sense and maybe someone can point me in the right direction to get this working :) Thanks in advance, Scott _______________________________________________ resin-interest mailing list resin-interest@caucho.com http://maillist.caucho.com/mailman/listinfo/resin-interest
