Jon Rimmer opened SPR-16645 and commented

The ability for beans to self autowire was added in: #13096

However, this does not work if the bean to self wire is transactional, e.g. has at least one method annotated with @transactional when transactions are enabled.

See the linked GitHub project for a very simple reproduction.

Affects: 5.0.4
