I am using the JCR provider inside Apache Geronimo, but in with Guice as my ioc not Spring. It appears to be working fine. We have been load testing with custom multi threaded perl scripts. No problems with Geronimo, but you will need to think about locking. We are also binding EclipseLink into the JTA transactions and running ontop of MySQL and/or Derby

Someone has probably done a configuration somewhere in one of the spring repositories.

Dear list,

I am a Jackrabbit newbie and am trying to get Jackrabbit running in the following context:

- Tomcat 5.5 or 6
- Spring 2.5.6
- MySQL or db4o (not clear yet)
- Jackrabbit

In particular, I want to get transactions running, encompassing Jackrabbit and MySQL/db4o.

I have search via Google to see whether I need an external transaction manager for this, as Tomcat does not provide Container Managed Transactions. I have seen a few posts on Jencks and Atomikos, and the introduction "Integrating Java Content Repository and Spring" at

 http://www.infoq.com/articles/spring-modules-jcr

To be on the safe side I'd like to know whether for my particular context this is still up-to-date: Do I need Jencks/Atomikos/some other transaction manager in order to use Jackrabbit and one more database under Spring?

If so, do you recommend Jencks or Atomikos?

Many thanks for any pointers,
Kaspar
