Michael Dick updated OPENJPA-969:
---------------------------------

             Priority: Minor  (was: Major)
    Affects Version/s: 1.2.1
           Issue Type: Improvement  (was: Bug)
              Summary: In the JEE Environment a second datasource must be 
specified to create the OpenJPA sequence table  (was: In the J2ee environment, 
when the sequence table is used for identity, if only one datasource is 
created, the application hangs. )

Upon further investigation this problem only exists if the sequence table 
doesn't exist and the application is relying on 
openjpa.jdbc.SynchronizeMappings to create the tables automatically. In that 
case the application requires a non-jta-data-source or openjpa.Connection2xxx 
properties in order to create the table.  

This was beyond the scope of the original enhancement to allow sequence values 
to be obtained without using a non-jta-data-source.

> The openjpa manual states clearly that a second unmanaged DataSource is 
> required for updating sequence table (page 205: 4.2.1. Managed and XA 
> DataSources): 
> "When using a managed DataSource, you should also configure a second 
> unmanaged DataSource that OpenJPA can use to perform tasks that are 
> independent of the global transaction. The most common of these tasks is 
> updating the sequence table OpenJPA uses to generate unique primary key 
> values for your datastore identity objects. Configure the second DataSource 
> using the non-jta-data-source persistence.xml element, or OpenJPA's various 
> "2" connection properties, such as openjpa.ConnectionFactory2Name or 
> openjpa.Connection2DriverName. These properties are outlined in
> Chapter 2, Configuration [161]."
> Openjpa, however, does not this rule when Sequence table is involved. As a 
> result, the application hangs when only one datasource is configured. This is 
> not very user-friendly. An error message should be thrown when this situation 
> is detected.
