Jboss 7 - Spring - using Jboss TransactionManager - spring

Question

Using: Jboss 7.1.1, Hibernate 3.6.9, Spring 3.0.1.
I tried out to switch from Spring Transaction Manager:
<bean id="transactionManager"
class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.JpaTransactionManager">
<property name="entityManagerFactory" ref="entityManagerFactory" />
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
</bean>
to Jboss Transaction Manager:
<!-- search for transaction managers -->
<tx:jta-transaction-manager/>
Using org.springframework.orm.jpa.JpaTransactionManager all works fine but if I remove "transactionManager" bean and added "" I get following error:
javax.persistence.TransactionRequiredException: no transaction is in progress
I found following in the server log:
08:40:58,382 INFO [org.hibernate.transaction.TransactionFactoryFactory] (MSC service
thread 1-1) Using default transaction strategy (direct JDBC transactions)
08:40:58,383 INFO [org.hibernate.transaction.TransactionManagerLookupFactory] (MSC
service thread 1-1) No TransactionManagerLookup configured (in JTA
environment, use of read-write or transactional second-level cache is not
recommended)
What that means? Does my application using java:jboss/TransactionManager now or not? Do I have to configure something on Jboss?
applicationContext.xml snippet:
<bean id="entityManagerFactory"
class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean">
<property name="persistenceUnitName" value="xxx" />
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
<property name="persistenceXmlLocation" value="classpath*:META-
INF/persistence.xml" />
<property name="jpaVendorAdapter">
<bean
class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.HibernateJpaVendorAdapter">
<property name="databasePlatform"
value="org.hibernate.dialect.SQLServerDialect" />
<property name="showSql" value="false" />
<property name="generateDdl" value="false" />
</bean>
</property>
</bean>
<tx:jta-transaction-manager/>
<bean id="dataSource" class="org.springframework.jndi.JndiObjectFactoryBean">
<property name="jndiName" value="${database.jndi.path}" />
persistence.xml snippet:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<persistence xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
version="2.0"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_2_0.xsd">
<persistence-unit name="xxx" transaction-type="RESOURCE_LOCAL">
<!-- a lot of <class>com.MyClass</class> -->
<properties>
<property name="jboss.as.jpa.managed" value="false"/>
<property name="hibernate.dialect"
value="org.hibernate.spatial.dialect.sqlserver.SqlServer2008SpatialDialect"/>
</properties>
</persistence-unit>
Maybe "RESOURCE_LOCAL" is wrong in persitence.xml?
domain.xml:
<datasource jta="true" jndi-name="java:jboss/datasources/myName" pool-name="myName" use-ccm="true">
<connection-url>jdbc:sqlserver://10.100.0.91:1433;databaseName=db;user=myUser;password=myPassword</connection-url>
<driver-class>com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver</driver-class>
<driver>mssql</driver>
<transaction-isolation>TRANSACTION_READ_COMMITTED</transaction-isolation>
<pool>
<min-pool-size>10</min-pool-size>
<max-pool-size>20</max-pool-size>
<prefill>true</prefill>
</pool>
<security>
<user-name>myName</user-name>
<password>myPassword</password>
</security>
<validation>
<validate-on-match>false</validate-on-match>
<background-validation>false</background-validation>
</validation>
<statement>
<share-prepared-statements>false</share-prepared-statements>
</statement>
</datasource>
--EDIT--
Now I changed my applicationContext.xml and persistence.xml!
applicationContext.xml snippet:
<jee:jndi-lookup id="my_unit" jndi-name="java:jboss/my_unit" />
<tx:jta-transaction-manager/>
<bean id="dataSource" class="org.springframework.jndi.JndiObjectFactoryBean">
<property name="jndiName" value="${database.jndi.path}" />
</bean>
persistence.xml snippet:
?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_2_0.xsd">
<jta-data-source>java:jboss/datasources/wtb</jta-data-source>
<properties>
<property name="hibernate.transaction.manager_lookup_class"
value="org.hibernate.transaction.JBossTransactionManagerLookup" />
<property name="hibernate.dialect"
value="org.hibernate.spatial.dialect.sqlserver.SqlServer2008SpatialDialect" />
</properties>
</persistence-unit>
Now I get following exception while deploying:

Answer 1

Are you using this in your applicationContext:
<tx:annotation-driven />
And in your Method:
#Transaction
public void store(Message message){...}
