Rick Curtis commented on OPENJPA-2234:
--------------------------------------

Erik -

Thanks for the thorough SO writeup. Unfortunately I think you're assessment of 
where the problems lies isn't quite correct. If you were to look at the OpenJPA 
code: 

    boolean syncWithManagedTransaction(BrokerImpl broker, boolean begin) {
        Transaction trans;
        try {
            ManagedRuntime mr = broker.getManagedRuntime();
            TransactionManager tm = mr.getTransactionManager();
            trans = tm.getTransaction(); <<< line 720

you will notice that the NPE is coming from not having a TransactionManager, 
not that you don't have a transaction.


I see the following line in your persistence configuration :

<entry key="openjpa.ManagedRuntime" 
value="invocation(TransactionManagerMethod=com.atomikos.icatch.jta.TransactionManagerImp.getTransactionManager)"
 />

We can start out with an easy one, is the getTransactionManager method static? 
If not, try changing that.

Thanks,
Rick

> While working with Spring Data, we came across a potential bug in OpenJPA.
> The bug was provoked by a query lookup module in Spring Data JPA, but it has 
> its roots in AbstractBrokerFactory class, which seems to require transaction 
> existence in order to create EntityManager (which is contrary to JPA spec).
> I have already been in touch with Spring Data JPA author (where I filed a bug 
> against Spring Data JPA) who actually pointed me to file a bug here.
> I have extensively documented my findings on this thread 
> (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10688040/spring-data-jpa-fails-to-invoke-jtatransactionmanager),
>  so I'll rather post the link, instead of repeating the whole thing here.
> All that being said, I am not entirely sure what actually happened and am no 
> authority whatsoever on JPA spec.
