I am having a problem related to JPA & some hibernate listeners I configured to index/deindex the Db entities into Elastic Search. The problem is basically that the listener onPostInsert method is called even if I throw an exception in the method where I am persisting an entity and this method is marked as @Transactional(rollbackFor = {Throwable.class}). My configuration is as follows.
The listener class:
public class ElasticSearchEventListener implements PostDeleteEventListener, PostInsertEventListener, PostUpdateEventListener { @Override public void onPostInsert(PostInsertEvent event) { log.debug("Listener indexing entity"); try { updateElasticSearch(event.getEntity()); } catch (Exception e) { log.debug("Error indexing object from listener"); e.printStackTrace(); } } ....... } The listener configured class:
@Service @Log4j public class ListenerConfigurerImpl implements ListenerConfigurer { @Autowired private EntityManagerFactory entityManagerFactory; @Autowired private ElasticSearchEventListener listener; @PostConstruct @Override public void registerListeners() { log.debug("Registering event listeners"); HibernateEntityManagerFactory hibernateEntityManagerFactory = (HibernateEntityManagerFactory) this.entityManagerFactory; SessionFactoryImpl sessionFactoryImpl = (SessionFactoryImpl) hibernateEntityManagerFactory.getSessionFactory(); EventListenerRegistry registry = sessionFactoryImpl.getServiceRegistry().getService(EventListenerRegistry.class); registry.getEventListenerGroup(EventType.POST_COMMIT_INSERT).appendListener(listener); ....... } } A service class:
@Service @Log4j public class ConversationServiceImpl implements ConversationService { @Override @Transactional(rollbackFor = {Throwable.class}) public void quotePackage(Long userId, CustomQuoteDTO dto) { ...... Conversation conversation = Conversation.createAndAssign(user, agency, type, subject); conversation = conversationRepository.save(conversation); Long conversationId = conversation.getId(); if (1 == 1) throw new RuntimeException(); } } Based on this configuration, I would be expecting that the conversation entity is not saved neither in the DB nor Elastic Search. The entity is not persisted in the DB which is correct but for some reason the "onPostInsert" is still executing... and I get the entity in Elastic Search even if it is not in the Database.
Any ideas? I am a bit lost. Thanks in advance.
EDIT 1 ------
I have found this bug from 2006 and it is still open that seems to be my problem: https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-1582
Is this supposed to work this way?
