Hi Phillip, I have run into this too, and although it is a common problem when you have multiple data sources (jackrabbit, RDBMS, filesystem, XML database, etc) there is no available solution or best practice.
Well, there is a solution for this XA transactions, but I would not recommend them except very special cases, as they tend to become app bottlenecks. Sometimes programmatic XA-like coding may perform better while assuring your data consistency. bests, ./alex -- .w( the_mindstorm )p. _____________________________________ Alexandru Popescu, OSS Evangelist TestNG/Groovy/AspectJ/WebWork/more...
