Q:

NHibernate query cache not working after update to the database

I have enabled 2nd level cache in FluentNHibernate:
Fluently.Configure()
            .Database(MsSqlConfiguration.MsSql2005
            .ConnectionString(connectionString)
            .Cache(c => c.ProviderClass<SysCacheProvider>().UseQueryCache())
            )
            .Mappings(m => m.FluentMappings.AddFromAssemblyOf<PersonMap>());

My mapping is as follows:
    public PersonMap()
    {
        Id(x => x.Id);
        Map(x => x.Name);
        Cache.ReadWrite();
    }

When I call Persons from my repository, I run:
    var query = session.GetSession().CreateCriteria<Person>("p")
        .Add(Expression.Eq("p.Org.Id", orgRep.GetOrg().Id));
    query.SetCacheable(true);
    return query.List<Person>().AsQueryable<Person>();

When I start the application everything (including cache) works fine. My first query will hit the database, but following ones don't. Problem arises when I save the Person. Person is saved like:
public virtual void Save(Person p)
{
  if (p.Id > 0 && session.GetSession().Get<Person>(p.Id).Org != orgRep.GetOrg())
            throw new SecurityException("Organization mismatch");
  session.GetSession().Merge(p);
  session.GetSession().Flush();
}

Saving works but after that the cache doesn't. Queries will always hit the database. Looking through nhibernate log says that:
 DEBUG - Checking query spaces for up-to-dateness [[Person]]
 DEBUG - Fetching object 'NHibernate-Cache:UpdateTimestampsCache:[Person]@1639794674' from the cache.
 DEBUG - cached query results were not up to date for: sql: SELECT this_.Id as Id0_0_, this_.Name as Name0_0_, this_.Org_id as Org5_0_0_ FROM [Person] this_ WHERE this_.Org_id = ?; parameters: ['1']; first row: 0

What am I doing wrong?

A:

Try instantiating an explicit transaction within a session using block. This article looks relevant:- http://nhprof.com/Learn/Alerts/DoNotUseImplicitTransactions
