We have a timer service triggered task in JBoss 5.1.0.GA application and the problem is that we cannot change the transaction time out. This long Lucene indexing can take longer than the default 300 second limit.
The question is how to change the timeout value, adding @TransactionTimeout(1800) to the worker method or the class did not have any effect.
Edit: Setting this in deploy/transaction-jboss-beans.xml works fine:
<property name="transactionTimeout">1800</property>
but the annotation doesn't seem to have effect on either timer initiated or normal stateless EJBs.
I am using EJB3 with Jboss 5.1.0.GA and have successfully set
this value in JBOSS_HOME/deploy/transaction-jboss-beans.xml
.
The default was 300 in <property name="transactionTimeout">300</property>
