topic activiti: task owner is deleted user in Alfresco Archive https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/activiti-task-owner-is-deleted-user/m-p/289008#M242138 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Hello,</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I have the requirement that I need to periodically check whether the owner of a task is still a valid alfresco user. The approach I was looking at is the following:</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>- attach a timer to the task to be monitored</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>- the timer redirects to a serviceTask in which I test with a search.luceneSearch() whether the user still exists in alfresco</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Now, the weird thing I observe is that the user that I delete (to be able to test this functionality) is recreated after this periodic task. My current (wild) guess is the the activiti machinery is somewhere calling personService.getPerson(deletedUser), which recreates this user. </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>When I set "&lt;property name="createMissingPeople"&gt;false&lt;/property&gt;" in authentication-services-context.xml to avoid this recreation of the deleted user, I obtain a transaction rollback (log below) and the workflow is stuck in the monitored task.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I know this is all rather vague, but I would be happy if someone could provide me with a hint on how to further investigate this or tell me whether there is a better approach to handling abandoned tasks.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>dirk</SPAN><BR /><BR /><BR /><SPAN>13:49:23,245 ERROR [org.springframework.transaction.support.TransactionSynchronizationUtils] TransactionSynchronization.afterCompletion threw exception</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>java.lang.IllegalStateException: No value for key [org.apache.ibatis.session.defaults.DefaultSqlSessionFactory@1003cac6] bound to thread [pool-9-thread-1]</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; at org.springframework.transaction.support.TransactionSynchronizationManager.unbindResource(TransactionSynchronizationManager.java:199)</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; at org.mybatis.spring.SqlSessionUtils$SqlSessionSynchronization.suspend(SqlSessionUtils.java:243)</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; at org.springframework.transaction.support.AbstractPlatformTransactionManager.doSuspendSynchronization(AbstractPlatformTransactionManager.java:666)</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; at org.springframework.transaction.support.AbstractPlatformTransactionManager.suspend(AbstractPlatformTransactionManager.java:569)</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; at org.springframework.transaction.support.AbstractPlatformTransactionManager.handleExistingTransaction(AbstractPlatformTransactionManager.java:418)</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; at org.springframework.transaction.support.AbstractPlatformTransactionManager.getTransaction(AbstractPlatformTransactionManager.java:347)</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; at org.springframework.transaction.support.TransactionTemplate.execute(TransactionTemplate.java:127)</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; at org.activiti.spring.SpringTransactionInterceptor.execute(SpringTransactionInterceptor.java:40)</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; at org.activiti.engine.impl.interceptor.LogInterceptor.execute(LogInterceptor.java:33)</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; at org.activiti.engine.impl.jobexecutor.DecrementJobRetriesListener.execute(DecrementJobRetriesListener.java:38)</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; at org.activiti.spring.SpringTransactionContext$4.afterCompletion(SpringTransactionContext.java:82)</SPAN><BR /></BODY></HTML> Wed, 13 Mar 2013 16:34:18 GMT dirko 2013-03-13T16:34:18Z activiti: task owner is deleted user https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/activiti-task-owner-is-deleted-user/m-p/289008#M242138 Hello,I have the requirement that I need to periodically check whether the owner of a task is still a valid alfresco user.

I did a remote debug and I've set a breakpoint on personService.getPerson(String, boolean), which results in the stacktrace below. It is clear that something activiti related triggers this method: AlfrescoScriptDelegate(ActivitiScriptBase).getPersonNode. So currently this is recreating a removed user. Is this the desired behaviour? Wouldn't it be better to call the getPerson() version that does not recreate the user?</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thread [pool-9-thread-1] (Suspended (entry into method getPerson in
