entityManagerFactory not initialized - spring

Question

i'm creating a portlet to load in liferay 6.2.
The portlet is a spring portlet with it's own db and uses jpa.
My pom is:

I Have an abstract class using generics as base for DAO classes, and i'm injecting EntityManager using #PersistenceContext
public abstract class DaoImpl<T extends Serializable, K> implements Dao<T, K> {
#PersistenceContext
protected EntityManager em;
private Class<T> type;
.......
When liferay server starts and try to load my portlet, i'm getting an error in initializing the EntityManagerFactory
13:49:22,583 WARN [XmlPortletApplicationContext:546] Exception encountered during context initialization - cancelling refresh attempt: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'entityManagerFactory' defined in PortletContext resource [/WEB-INF/spring-context/portlet/MyPos-portlet.xml]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: javax.persistence.Table.indexes()[Ljavax/persistence/Index;

what's wrong? Maybe I forgot something in my configuration?
thanks in advance

Answer 1

You are using a JPA2.1 provider (Hibernate 5.0.6) with a beta version of the JPA 2.0 library in your classpath (2.0.Beta-20090815). So the provider tries calling a method which doesn't exist yet: Table.indexes().
Use the JPA 2.1 library.
