jbpm audit log always looking for jta transaction

Am trying to pull records from JBPM AuditLog but am getting 

SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet [dispatcher] in context with path [/dms] threw exception [Request processing failed; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalStateException: Unable to find JTA transaction.] with root cause
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Unable to find JTA transaction.

looking at trace it is still using the JTA strategy instead of local transaction strategy

am using jbpm v6.2.0.CR2 and my persistence.xml is as follows

<persistence-unit name="dms-jbpm" transaction-type="RESOURCE_LOCAL">
        <provider>org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence</provider>

Solution

  • jBPM persistence is using JTA to manage the transaction. As a result, you should use JTA as transaction type in your persistence.xml and use a JTA data source. The only exception is Spring, where we also integrate with the Spring transaction manager to support local transactions as well.
