WS-AT recovery is enabled but WS-AT is not ready for runtime

[anavarro-fdi-ucm-es]

Hello

I am using Metro 4.0.4 and GlassFish 7.0.15.

I am trying to perform a WS-Atomic transaction between service SAX and service SAY. Both services store an employee on a table. SAX uses MySQL 5.7 and SAY uses MySQL 8.0.

Both services work well independently. SAX can invoke SAY with no problems without @transactional annotation (com.sun.xml.ws.api.tx.at.Transactional class).

But when service SAX tries to send the transactional context to SAY using @transactional, the application crashes. The server goes into a loop, always sending the same message.

Although I have included this property at the server's configuration (and even as Maven jvm.config): wsat.recovery.enabled=false the problem seems to be that WS-AT recovery is still enabled.

I have used Payara 2025.02 and I have the same problem. I asked StackOverflow but there is no solution.

I would appreciate some help.

Thanks in advance.

This is the error reported by SAX (in a loop):

This is the error reported by the server (in a loop):

WS-AT recovery is enabled but WS-AT is not ready for runtime. Processing WS-AT recovery log files...|#]

WSATGatewayRM.initStore path:null|#]

The problem was that an stateless bean can be a web service, but it cannot parcitipate in a ws-atomic transaction. Using a separate class (a web service broker) for the service that invokes the bean it works perfectly. It is more elegant, but it is an annoying technical detail.

[jbescos]

I am not into this yet, but I made a quick investigation in case the problem has an easy solution.

That class WSATGatewayRM is a singleton, and it is supposed to define the paths that you have as null in the moment it makes the instance by invoking the method setTxLogDirs:

  private static synchronized WSATGatewayRM create(String serverName)
  {
    if (singleton == null) {
        new WSATGatewayRM(serverName);
        isReadyForRecovery = setupRecovery();
    }
    return singleton;
  }

    private static boolean setupRecovery() {
        if (!WSATRuntimeConfig.getInstance().isWSATRecoveryEnabled()) return true;
        TransactionImportManager.registerRecoveryResourceHandler(singleton);
        WSATRuntimeConfig.getInstance().setWSATRecoveryEventListener(singleton);
        **setTxLogDirs();**
        try {
            initStore();
            return true;
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
            return false;
        }
    }

The only way I see this would not happen, is invoking the test constructor:

    // package access for test instantiation only, this is a singleton
  WSATGatewayRM(String serverName) {
    resourceRegistrationName = "RM_NAME_PREFIX" + serverName;
    branches = Collections.synchronizedMap(new HashMap<>());
    pendingXids = Collections.synchronizedList(new ArrayList<>());
    singleton = this;
  }

Is it possible that you have the instance of WSATGatewayRM injected by any framework like CDI or Spring?. If this is the case, it should be create by the methods WSATGatewayRM#getInstance or WSATGatewayRM#create.

[anavarro-fdi-ucm-es]

Thank you.

I am not using Spring, just GlassFish 7.0.15 and Metro WSIT Implementation Bundle 4.0.4.

The only injection that I have is a JPA entity manager using @PersistenceContext in the bean that starts the transaction.

What I don't understand is why "if (!WSATRuntimeConfig.getInstance().isWSATRecoveryEnabled()) return true;" is not executed, because I have the JVM argument "-Dwsat.recovery.enabled=false" in GlassFish.

[jbescos]

Initially the value is obtained from JVM args, but it is possible to set it to other value. You can add a breakpoint here to see where is triggered that workflow: https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/metro-wsit/blob/f5292b01721e56b45a849fe08e0ed29ad0db86b1/wsit/ws-tx/wstx-api/src/main/java/com/sun/xml/ws/tx/dev/WSATRuntimeConfig.java#L66

@lukasj I found this unrelated thing: https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/metro-wsit/blob/f5292b01721e56b45a849fe08e0ed29ad0db86b1/wsit/ws-tx/wstx-api/src/main/java/com/sun/xml/ws/tx/dev/WSATRuntimeConfig.java#L103

I know there is a #done method that unlocks it, but given that Initializer is public, anybody can lock that static Locker.

[anavarro-fdi-ucm-es]

How does setTxLogDirs() get the file names? Could this be due to a simple initialization error in GlassFish?

I've checked the value of wsat.recovery.enabled and it's false at runtime (inside of the bean that starts the transaction). If I don't change it, who will?

Regarding the breakpoint, it's implied in your statement that instead of importing the wsit package with Maven, I should download the wsit source code and debug it, right? Or is there another way to insert breakpoints into the imported code?

By the way, is there any Metro WSIT Java running example beyond the one included in the Metro documentation that I've adapted because it wasn't directly usable (https://eclipse-ee4j.github.io/metro-wsit/4.0.0/guide/ch17.html)? Maybe I'm doing something wrong when initializing the Service with TransactionalFeature, or something else.

Thanks.

I don't know, but it seems it became eventually to true. I would say that there is other workflow setting it to true.

Regarding the breakpoint, it's implied in your statement that instead of importing the wsit package with Maven, I should download the wsit source code and debug it, right? Or is there another way to insert breakpoints into the imported code?

You can add glassfish classpath in your IDE and, with a decompiler, you can add breakpoints. You can also attach sources as you said. And it is also possible to run a javaagent that intercepts the invocation and prints the stacktrace (this option is more complicated). Or you can download sources, modify the method to print the stacktrace, compile it, and overwrite the jar in glassfish.

By the way, is there any Metro WSIT Java running example beyond the one included in the Metro documentation that I've adapted because it wasn't directly usable (https://eclipse-ee4j.github.io/metro-wsit/4.0.0/guide/ch17.html)?

Unfortunately I don't know this project. From time to time I have done some minor fixes in metro, but I never tried WSIT. But with some time we will get into the issue.

[anavarro-fdi-ucm-es]

Thanks a lot, Jorge.

I have a couple of urgent tasks to attend to, one of them a bit complex.

As soon as I finish them, I'll come back to try to debug the WSIT package.

In the meantime, if anyone finds a solution, it would be welcome!

Best regards.

Dear Jorge,

I've restarted this, although still at half speed.

I have included wsit wstx api and impl sources in my project instead of the POM dependency.

But the class com.sun.xml.ws.tx.coord.common.endpoint.BaseRegistration complains about the lack of the class com.sun.xml.ws.tx.at.localization.LocalizationMessages that according to NetBeans/Maven it is included in (i) com.sun.xml.ws: webservices-osgi; (ii) org.glassfish.main.extras: glassfish-ebedded-all; (iii) org.glassfish.metro: webservices-osgi; (iv) org.glassfish.metro: webservices-osgi-aix; (v) org.glassfish.metro: webservices-rt; (vi) org.glassfish.metro: wsit-impl; and (vii) org.glassfish.metro: wstx-impl.

The results are:

(i) The class seems to exist, but I have dozens of errors regarding the attributes/messages belonging to class com.sun.xml.ws.tx.at.localization.LocalizationMessages.
They are at loggers, but there are dozens or hundred of errors.
(ii) It is a no-sense because I am using a GlassFish server.
(iii) The build is OK, but it cannot run the project because Servlet [RegistrationPortTypeRPCPortImpl] and Servlet [RegistrationRequesterPortTypePortImpl] have the same url pattern: [/RegistrationService_V10].
(iv) It is intended for aix.
(v) Same problem that (iii). The build is OK, but it cannot run the project because Servlet [RegistrationPortTypeRPCPortImpl] and Servlet [RegistrationRequesterPortTypePortImpl] have the same url pattern: [/RegistrationService_V10].
(vi) This breaks me because the class com.sun.xml.ws.tx.at.localization.LocalizationMessages cannot be found at https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/metro-wsit
(vii) I included this dependency in a previous attempt and I obtained the original problem: WS-AT recovery is enabled but WS-AT is not ready for runtime.

At this point, can you think of any way to proceed?

Thanks in advance,
Antonio.

[anavarro-fdi-ucm-es]

Hello again,

Regarding (i), which seemed to be the most promissing path, I got up early and commented al the problematic loggers. The projects build.

However, now, the same problem than in (iii) and (v) appears: [RegistrationRequesterPortTypePortImpl] and Servlet [RegistrationPortTypeRPCPortImpl] have the same url pattern: [/RegistrationService_V10]

Are you sure that WSIT is compatible with GlassFish 7.0.15?

I am thinking in removing Metro from GlassFish using asadmin remove-library and including Metro webservices rt in the pom file. What do you think?

Thanks again.

[anavarro-fdi-ucm-es]

I ran a new test with WildFly 35.0.1.

An empty project, with no code, but with the following dependency in pom.xml:

   <dependency>
        <groupId>org.glassfish.metro</groupId>
        <artifactId>webservices-rt</artifactId>
        <version>4.0.4</version>
    </dependency>

Causes the following error when run:

"WFLYCTL0080: Failed services" => {"jboss.deployment.unit.\"JPAwf-1.war\".INSTALL" => "WFLYSRV0153: Failed to process phase INSTALL of deployment \"JPAwf-1.war\"
Caused by: org.jboss.wsf.spi.WSFException: JBWS024109: Could not get WSDL contract for endpoint com.sun.xml.ws.tx.coord.v11.endpoint.RegistrationPortImpl at /wsdls/wsc11/wstx-wscoor-1.1-wsdl-200702.wsdl"},
"WFLYCTL0412: Required services that are not installed:" => [
"jboss.deployment.unit.\"JPAwf-1.war\".beanmanager",
"jboss.deployment.unit.\"JPAwf-1.war\".WeldStartService"

It seems a variation of WS-AT is not ready for runtime, but at deploying.

Any suggestion?

Thanks in advance.

[jbescos]

@anavarro-fdi-ucm-es are you able to create and upload a simple reproducer here?. So I can debug it and investigate what is the issue.

[anavarro-fdi-ucm-es]

Dear Jorge,

I have uploaded the code to GitHub to https://github.com/WSITantonio

I am using Java 21 (Picked up JDK_JAVA_OPTIONS: -Dwsat.recovery.enabled=false), NetBeans 23, GlassFish 7.0.15 (Payara 6.2025.2 is basically the same), WildFly 35.0.1, MySQL 8.0.19 and 9.2.

I have service SAX (Xok) which calls service SAY (Yok) in the context of a WSAT. Both projects have stateless beans (SAXBean and SAYBean) that can be runned locally from the index.html. SAX uses MySQL 8.0.19 and SAY uses MySQL 9.2. SAX and SAY record an employee using JPA.

I have four configurations with four failures. Configurations III and IV are simpler, because they are EMPTY projects with a dependency to Metro webservices-rt in the pom.xml file, deployed on GlassFish (III) and WildFly (IV).

Configuration II is the code that I have uploaded, because is a simple use of WSIT.

Configuration I uses WSIT modified by me, and is the last post in this thread.

Configurations (I) and (II) use this glassfish-resources.xml for the database pools (jdbc/mydb is not necessary):

CONFIGURATION I.
In this configuration, where WSIT is downloaded and the class WSATGatewayRM has been modified (and the package com.sun.xml…. has been renamed to commmmm.sun.xml…) , when I DEPLOY the project I get the error:

org.glassfish.apf.AnnotationProcessorException: Servlet [ParticipantPortImpl] and Servlet [CoordinatorPortImpl] have the same url pattern: [/WSAT11Service]. Related annotation information: Annotation [@jakarta.jws.WebService(name="", wsdlLocation="/wsdls/wsat11/wstx-wsat-1.1-wsdl-200702.wsdl", endpointInterface="com.sun.xml.ws.tx.at.v11.types.CoordinatorPortType", portName="CoordinatorPort", serviceName="WSAT11Service", targetNamespace="http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-tx/wsat/2006/06")] on annotated element [class commmmm.sun.xml.ws.tx.at.v11.endpoint.CoordinatorPortImpl] of type [TYPE]

If I keep the package com.sun.xml… the deployment error is (I suspect it is using classes from webservices-osgi instead of my package. I use this dependency due to problems listed in my previous message from Mar 20, 2025, 6:31 PM):
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Servlet [RegistrationPortTypeRPCPortImpl] and Servlet [RegistrationRequesterPortTypePortImpl] have the same url pattern: [/RegistrationService_V10]

Because this is an strange case where I have manually updated WSIT, I have uploaded to GitHub the configuration (II), which was my original question here. You can find the modified cod in commm.

CONFIGURATION II
This is the original configuration, where I just use WSIT wihout modifications.

If I delete the package commmmm.sun.xml, and include wsit-impl 4.0.4 in the pom.xml file, instead of webservices-osgi, when I RUN the project I get the error:

WS-AT recovery is enabled but WS-AT is not ready for runtime

La causa es:

Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
at java.base/java.io.File.(File.java:278)
at com.sun.xml.ws.tx.at.internal.WSATGatewayRM.createFile(WSATGatewayRM.java:138)
at com.sun.xml.ws.tx.at.internal.WSATGatewayRM.initStore(WSATGatewayRM.java:130)
at com.sun.xml.ws.tx.at.internal.WSATGatewayRM.recover(WSATGatewayRM.java:381)

You can run SAX from XokCliente as a web service, or directly from the Xok index.html as a bean (SAXBean). In both cases, I get the same error.

If I remove the Metro @transactional annotation, I have no problems (nor wsat transaction either).

This is the code that I have uploaded because is just the use of WSIT.

CONFIGURATION III
If I create an EMPTY Maven web project and I include webservices-rt (https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.glassfish.metro/webservices-rt/4.0.4) in the pom.xml file, and I DEPLOY the project on GlassFish I get the error:

CONFIGURATION IV
If I create an EMPTY Maven web project and I include webservices-rt (https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.glassfish.metro/webservices-rt/4.0.4) in the pom.xml file, and I DEPLOY the project on WildFly I get the error:

}

As you can see, I've spent many hours trying different solutions, and they're all dead ends.

Thank you very much for your help.

[jbescos]

I am having one issue with the JNDI name in glassfish. I have configured the connection pool:

I can ping it in glassfish and it is working.

However, when I deploy Xot I get:

Could you share me your JNDI mydb8 config?. Or do you know what is wrong?.

[anavarro-fdi-ucm-es]

It seems that you have some errors in the JDBC Connection Pools.

This is what I have in GlassFish:

I suggest to use a glassfish-resources.xml with the configuration that I sent you (I cannot attach an XML file here):

 <jdbc-connection-pool connection-creation-retry-interval-in-seconds="30" connection-validation-method="auto-commit" datasource-classname="com.mysql.cj.jdbc.MysqlXADataSource" wrap-jdbc-objects="false" res-type="javax.sql.XADataSource" name="mysql_mydb_rootPool8" is-connection-validation-required="true" connection-creation-retry-attempts="10" validate-atmost-once-period-in-seconds="60">
    <property name="User" value="jpaws"/>
    <property name="Password" value="jpaws"/>
	<property name="useSSL" value="false"/>
    <property name="URL" value="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3307/jpaws"/>
    <property name="driverClass" value="com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver"/>
    <property name="characterEncoding" value="utf-8"/>
</jdbc-connection-pool>
<jdbc-resource enabled="true" jndi-name="jdbc/mydb8" object-type="user" pool-name="mysql_mydb_rootPool8"/>

 <jdbc-connection-pool connection-creation-retry-interval-in-seconds="30" connection-validation-method="auto-commit" datasource-classname="com.mysql.cj.jdbc.MysqlXADataSource" wrap-jdbc-objects="false" res-type="javax.sql.XADataSource" name="mysql_mydb_rootPool9" is-connection-validation-required="true" connection-creation-retry-attempts="10" validate-atmost-once-period-in-seconds="60">
    <property name="User" value="jpaws"/>
    <property name="Password" value="jpaws"/>
	<property name="useSSL" value="false"/>
    <property name="URL" value="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3308/jpaws"/>
    <property name="driverClass" value="com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver"/>
    <property name="characterEncoding" value="utf-8"/>
	<property name="allowPublicKeyRetrieval" value="true"/>
</jdbc-connection-pool>
<jdbc-resource enabled="true" jndi-name="jdbc/mydb9" object-type="user" pool-name="mysql_mydb_rootPool9"/>

And then, to create the pools using asadmin as specified in the last coment of here (Configure your connecion just in four steps: ...)
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66237723/connecting-glassfish-payara-to-mysql-8-x

Before, you should delete the resources/pools that you have created.

[jbescos]

I couldn't find glassfish-resources.xml within my glassfish, but I found how to sort it out. I was just configuring the conneciotn pool and I thought that was also the JNDI. I had to define the JNDI under JDBC resources and it seems the app is deployed now.

I am continuing...
