Websphere transaction management

[prao81]

have been trying to switch from spring aop transaction management to spring aspecjt transaction management.

My configuration goes like this
application context

<bean id="txMgr"
class="org.springframework.transaction.jta.WebSphe reUowTransactionManager">
</bean>
<tx:annotation-driven transaction-manager="txMgr" mode="aspectj"/>


My aop file has the aspect defined <aspect name="org.springframework.transaction.aspectj.Anno tationTransactionAspect" />

I can see the required weaving going on fine.

But the problem is when i run the app I am getting some error.

The scenario is class a (already running in an outer transaction)-> class b method (uses @Transactional(propagation = Propagation.REQUIRES_NEW)).

The issues seems to be when the transaction is being suspended I am getting the below errors? Any ideas on how to solve this>?

Similar issue raised in the past, but no solution

try using this
<tx:jta-transaction-manager/>
<tx:annotation-driven />

instead:
<bean id="txMgr"
class="org.springframework.transaction.jta.WebSphe reUowTransactionManager">
</bean>
<tx:annotation-driven transaction-manager="txMgr" mode="aspectj"/>
