JavaPosse Episode 157

By tvik
Why do I post these? I've been regularly listening these podcasts and sometimes I flag more interesting subjects in order to be able to re-listen them. It's just one step forward to flag *all* main subjects and make it public whether it's useful for others. This one was the latest Episode in 2007 or the first in 2008 depending on the point of view. With this, all tracklists of 2008-episodes are present up to now. Further ones are posted to the JavaPosse Google Group. Henceforward, I plan to write real posts here. :)

Original shownotes and the audible mp3 of the podcast can be found here.

Client's transaction aborted

By tvik
I've met the above error message using a Wicket 1.2 / EJB3 intranet application under Glassfish v2 . Here is the more particular head of the stack trace: javax.ejb.TransactionRolledbackLocalException: Client's transaction aborted at com.sun.ejb.containers.BaseContainer.useClientTx(BaseContainer.java:3394) at com.sun.ejb.containers.BaseContainer.preInvokeTx(BaseContainer.java:3274) at com.sun.ejb.containers.BaseContainer.preInvoke(BaseContainer.java:1244) at com.sun.ejb.containers.EJBLocalObjectInvocationHandler.invoke(EJBLocalObjectInvocationHandler.java:195) at com.sun.ejb.containers.EJBLocalObjectInvocationHandlerDelegate.invoke(EJBLocalObjectInvocationHandlerDelegate.java:127) This exception raised on the integration server sometimes, randomly, for simple page fetch operations. After pressing reload on the browser, the operation was usually successful. I couldn't reproduce the failure on the local machine where I regularly restart the app server and

jxl.log

By tvik
In an intranet production environment we have running a Glassfish v2 appserver with several J2EE applications which all use JexcelApi , a.k.a JXL, which is an open source library for accessing, generating or manipulating Microsoft Excel documents. We use version 2.6.3 of JXL because it's the recent one in the Maven repository which we use, however, at the official JXL site there are newer versions. Additionally we have log4j and Java Commons Logging (JCL), ignoring Glassfish's JSR-47 Java Util Logging (JUL) facility. Application #1 uses purely log4j and gets its log4j.xml config from a custom location. Application #2 runs Java Commons Logging with no explicite configuration file given, so JCL uses the default JUL facility of the appserver. Application #1 had been running for a long time without problems but when we installed #2 we realized that a jxl.log file had been created in the glassfish/domain/domain1/config directory and it's rapidly growing. As it happens, we

Architecture at CraftConf

By tvik
At Craft Conf, there were some presentations about software architecture. I visited all of them and also searched for this subject in other talks. It was interesting to hear the same concepts from more places and to put together a picture how software architecture looks like in the mind of the presenters of today’s conferences. Stefan Tilkov: Architecture War Stories . It was indeed about weird stories from real life. I wrote down two things: If something is sophisticated, probable you shouldn’t do it. And having many architects is wrong. Many people liked this talk very much but I’m not really interested in real stories. I’m rather interested in the causes behind the stories to be able to avoid situations which head to weird architecture. Luckily for me, other talks were more abstract. The title of Rachel Laycock’s talk contained the very fashionable word combination “Continuous Delivery” beside “Architecture” so I anticipated it will be great, and it was. Rachel came with the same m
