is your jmsTemplate Transacted ?
jmsTemplate.setSessionTransacted(true);
https://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/current/javadoc-api/org/springframework/jms/support/JmsAccessor.html#setSessionTransacted-boolean-
public void setSessionTransacted(boolean sessionTransacted)
Set the transaction mode that is used when creating a JMS Session.
Default is "false". Note that within a JTA transaction, the parameters
passed to create(Queue/Topic)Session(boolean transacted, int
acknowledgeMode) method are not taken into account. Depending on the
Java EE transaction context, the container makes its own decisions on
these values. Analogously, these parameters are not taken into account
within a locally managed transaction either, since the accessor
operates on an existing JMS Session in this case.
Setting this flag to "true" will use a short local JMS transaction
when running outside of a managed transaction, and a synchronized
local JMS transaction in case of a managed transaction (other than an
XA transaction) being present. This has the effect of a local JMS
transaction being managed alongside the main transaction (which might
be a native JDBC transaction), with the JMS transaction committing
right after the main transaction.

30.2.5 Transaction management
Spring provides a JmsTransactionManager that manages transactions for
a single JMS ConnectionFactory. This allows JMS applications to
leverage the managed transaction features of Spring as described in
Chapter 17, Transaction Management. The JmsTransactionManager performs
local resource transactions, binding a JMS Connection/Session pair
from the specified ConnectionFactory to the thread. JmsTemplate
automatically detects such transactional resources and operates on
them accordingly.
In a Java EE environment, the ConnectionFactory will pool Connections
and Sessions, so those resources are efficiently reused across
transactions. In a standalone environment, using Spring’s
SingleConnectionFactory will result in a shared JMS Connection, with
each transaction having its own independent Session. Alternatively,
consider the use of a provider-specific pooling adapter such as
ActiveMQ’s PooledConnectionFactory class.
JmsTemplate can also be used with the JtaTransactionManager and an
XA-capable JMS ConnectionFactory for performing distributed
transactions. Note that this requires the use of a JTA transaction
manager as well as a properly XA-configured ConnectionFactory! (Check
your Java EE server’s / JMS provider’s documentation.)
Reusing code across a managed and unmanaged transactional environment
can be confusing when using the JMS API to create a Session from a
Connection. This is because the JMS API has only one factory method to
create a Session and it requires values for the transaction and
acknowledgment modes. In a managed environment, setting these values
is the responsibility of the environment’s transactional
infrastructure, so these values are ignored by the vendor’s wrapper to
the JMS Connection. When using the JmsTemplate in an unmanaged
environment you can specify these values through the use of the
properties sessionTransacted and sessionAcknowledgeMode. When using a
PlatformTransactionManager with JmsTemplate, the template will always
be given a transactional JMS Session.
