ActiveObjects does not persist in Confluence

[Boris]

I have a problem with AO not persisting an entity when used in Confluence. Strangely, the same code works in JIRA.

I created two test plugins .

They both have the TestWS web service and a TestEntity.

To run the test for JIRA, visit

http://localhost:2990/jira/rest/testplugin/1.0/library/create

to create an entity and then

http://localhost:2990/jira/rest/testplugin/1.0/library/get

to get it. It will show "A name" string on the page.

Visiting the similar URLs for Confluence will not show anything as the entity was never persisted. No exception was thrown when persisting. Both plugins are started successfully.

The AO plugin setup is nearly identical in both cases except for AO version which has to match respective applications.

Confluence 5.7, ActiveObjects 0.29.3

JIRA 6.4, ActiveObjects 0.28.7

Any clues?

Thanks.

Confluence needs transactions. https://developer.atlassian.com/docs/atlassian-platform-common-components/active-objects/getting-started-with-active-objects#GettingStartedwithActiveObjects-Step9.CreateanAOinteractionwithinaTransaction

The other issue might be that you're doing a get to write. I know that Bamboo is really finicky about doing writes on gets. I'm not sure about Confluence, but you might want to switch to do a post.

Yes, it works with a transaction. GET was just for testing purposes. Thanks!
