How to update an entity with Google App Engine Java with JPA?

I'm trying to update an entity using JPA with Google App Engine. I start a transaction, retrieve the entity to update, change a few fields, call persist and commit. Everything is executed without any error, however, the entity is not modified.

Here is the sample code:

EntityTransaction tx = entityManager.getTransaction();
try {
        tx.begin();
        DomainName domain = entityManager.find(DomainName.class, domainName);
        domain.setExists(body != null);
        domain.setHttpBody(body);
        domain.setHttpTimeStamp(new Date());
        entityManager.persist(domain);
        tx.commit();
} finally {
        if (tx.isActive()) {
                tx.rollback();
        }
}

What should I do to persist the entity using JPA?

No idea what the persist() call is doing, since the object (if found, which you don't tell us) will be in managed state, hence the first update of a field marks the object as dirty, and will be committed on the commit() call. Obviously a simple inspection of the log would tell you what was happening.
