Question

My java app deployed in jboss AS 7, queries a MS SQL server database using spring data. I also need to call a DB2 function on zOS for which I use Spring JdbcTemplate. The SQL is:

public String getUniqueId()
{
    String sql = "SELECT " + schemaName + ".SGB_LON_ID_NEXT() FROM SYSIBM.SYSDUMMY1" ;
    return (jdbcTemplate.queryForLong(sql));
}

Unit tests in Eclipse work fine.
When I deploy in the jboss server, the first call works.
However, the second transaction onwards, the call itself works, but a few warnings appear in the server.log for each call.

I wonder if it could be the fact that the JDBC call is NOT a part of the JPA transaction. (note that the jdbc call is a simple – the DB2 function just returns the next serial number for a field )

Here are the warning messages from the error stack:

Any suggestions on how to fix?
I am not clear on how to add the JDBC call to the current transaction (JPA). Or should it be a separate transaction. As stated earlier the jdbc call is a db2 function that returns the next value for a sequence number.

The problem turned out to be in my datasource setup in JBOSS_HOME/standalone/configuration/standalone.xml.

In the validation section, I had this which was incorrect.

<validation>
    <check-valid-connection-sql>select 1</check-valid-connection-sql>
<validation>

The above was incorrect and DB2 was giving a validation error.

I changed that to the following instead:

      <validation>
          <valid-connection-checker class-name="org.jboss.jca.adapters.jdbc.extensions.db2.DB2ValidConnectionChecker"/>
          <stale-connection-checker class-name="org.jboss.jca.adapters.jdbc.extensions.db2.DB2StaleConnectionChecker"/>
          <exception-sorter class-name="org.jboss.jca.adapters.jdbc.extensions.db2.DB2ExceptionSorter"/>
      </validation>

Here is the complete datasource set up in case anybody else finds it useful.
