Issue

• To understand better the ConcurrentAccessTimeoutException: JBAS014360: EJB 3.1 FR 4.3.14.1 concurrent access timeout on org.jboss.invocation.InterceptorContext@ad0f81 - could not obtain lock within 5000 MILLISECONDS exception in logs.

A StatefulBean that is being called by a stateless bean.

The scenario is:

1. Call Stateless Beanmethod1()marked with@TransactionAttribute(value=TransactionAttributeType.REQUIRED)`
2. StatelessBean gets reference to StatefulBean
3. StatelessBean calls StateFulBean method marked with @TransactionAttribute(value = TransactionAttributeType.REQUIRES_NEW).
   The method which is calling does nothing, it is an empty method
4. This scenario throws the following exception:

• is it possible to invoke a Stateful Session Bean several times in a transaction and use methods which are marked with TransactionAttributeType.REQUIRES_NEW?
