Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

The following warnings are reported during transaction processing:

  • EAP 6/7:

    ... WARN ... ARJUNA012117: TransactionReaper::check processing TX <xid> in state  RUN
    ... WARN ... ARJUNA012095: Abort of action id <xid> invoked while multiple threads active within it.
    ... WARN ... ARJUNA012108: CheckedAction::check - atomic action <xid> aborting with 1 threads active!
    ... WARN ... ARJUNA012121: TransactionReaper::doCancellations worker Thread[Transaction Reaper Worker 0,5,main] successfully canceled TX <xid>
    

    NOTE: In EAP versions before 7.4.0, ARJUNA012117 message will be output as TransactionReaper::check timeout for TX <xid> in state RUN.

  • EAP 5:

    WARN  ... - TransactionReaper::check timeout for TX <xid> in state  RUN
    WARN  ... - Abort of action id <xid> invoked while multiple threads active within it.
    WARN  ... - CheckedAction::check - atomic action <xid> aborting with 1 threads active!
    WARN  ... - TransactionReaper::doCancellations worker Thread[Thread-10,5,jboss] successfully canceled TX <xid>
    
  • EAP 4:

    WARN  ... - Abort of action id <xid> invoked while multiple threads active within it.
    WARN  ... - CheckedAction::check - atomic action <xid> aborting with 1 threads active!
    

Note: <xid> in the above represents the transaction id which will have the form of something like 7f000001:ece6:52ce0808:71 or 0:ffff7f000001:-1dde6ae2:52ccdf8c:b

  • Following or nearly concurrent with the WARN messages, application code may encounter exceptions similar to one or more of the following:
    • Could not enlist in transaction on entering meta-aware object!
    • java.lang.IllegalStateException: Transaction TransactionImple < ... status: ActionStatus.ABORTED > is not active STATUS_ROLLEDBACK
    • See also Unable to enlist resource ...
