We had a situation in which a delete SQL was issued from a session bean to the database (MySQL). The number of rows to be deleted was larger than MySQL could handle (2 Million), so it threw back a SQLException saying it found a Deadlock. Strangely, JBoss kept re-starting the transaction. The same Exception can be found over and over in the JBoss server.log file. - Does JBoss indeed re-start the transaction repeatedly when the database detects a deadlock? - Is there a way to change this behavior ? if so, how? Thanks for you help. The snippet from server.log is pasted below.
