java.lang.NullPointerException when creating a StatefulKnowledgeSession with JPAKnowledgeService

I am trying to get JPAKnowledgeService work with my Spring Boot application. For this I have followed the instructions from here.
My persistence.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<persistence xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

<property name="hibernate.show_sql" value="true" />
<property name="hibernate.transaction.manager_lookup_class" value="org.hibernate.transaction.BTMTransactionManagerLookup" />
</properties>
</persistence-unit>
</persistence>
I haven't defined transaction boundaries and I had to exclude hibernate-ja-2.0-api from drools-persistence-jpa to use 2.1 that is provided by Spring itself.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.drools</groupId>
<artifactId>drools-persistence-jpa</artifactId>
<version>6.5.0.Final</version>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>org.hibernate.javax.persistence</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-jpa-2.0-api</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
</dependency>
Upon calling newStatefulKnowledgeSession like this:
Environment env = KnowledgeBaseFactory.newEnvironment();
env.set( EnvironmentName.ENTITY_MANAGER_FACTORY, Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory( "org.jbpm.persistence.jpa" ) );
env.set( EnvironmentName.TRANSACTION_MANAGER, TransactionManagerServices.getTransactionManager() );
KieSession kSession = JPAKnowledgeService.newStatefulKnowledgeSession(kieBase, null, env);
I am getting the following error:
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'JPAKnowledgeServiceFactory' defined in class path resource [org/hasancansaral/jpaknowledgeservicesample/JPAKnowledgeServiceConfiguration.class]: Bean instantiation via factory method failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Failed to instantiate [org.kie.internal.runtime.StatefulKnowledgeSession]: Factory method 'JPAKnowledgeServiceFactory' threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalStateException: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException

I also have a sample repo to recreate this error that can be found here. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

you need to use jndi.properties file in the root of your class path to point java to use bitrnix as JNDI provider so it can bind transaction manager into JNDI so then JtaTransactionManager can look it up
create new file: src/main/resources/jndi.properties with following content:
java.naming.factory.initial=bitronix.tm.jndi.BitronixInitialContextFactory

It seems that you are using JTA transactions, try with this property:
<property name="hibernate.transaction.jta.platform" value="org.hibernate.service.jta.platform.internal.NoJtaPlatform" />

Null pointer expection creating EntityManagerFactory upgrading to Hibernate 5.1

We create a EntityManagerFactory like this:
<bean id="dataSource"
class="org.apache.commons.dbcp2.BasicDataSource"
destroy-method="close"
p:driverClassName="${jdbc.driver}"
p:url="${jdbc.url}"
p:username="${jdbc.username}"
p:password="${jdbc.password}"
p:initialSize="${dbcp.initialSize}"
p:maxTotal="${dbcp.maxActive}"
p:maxIdle="${dbcp.maxIdle}"
p:minIdle="${dbcp.minIdle}"
p:maxWaitMillis="${dbcp.maxWait}"
p:validationQuery="${dbcp.validationQuery}"/>
<bean id="entityManagerFactory"
class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean"
p:dataSource-ref="dataSource">
<property name="jpaVendorAdapter">
<bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.HibernateJpaVendorAdapter"/>
</property>
<property name="jpaProperties">
<props>
<prop key="hibernate.dialect">${hibernate.dialect}</prop>
<prop key="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto">${hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto}</prop>
<prop key="hibernate.show_sql">${hibernate.show_sql}</prop>
<prop key="hibernate.generate_statistics">${hibernate.generate_statistics}</prop>
</props>
</property>
</bean>
<bean id="transactionManager"
class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.JpaTransactionManager"
p:entityManagerFactory-ref="entityManagerFactory"
p:dataSource-ref="dataSource"/>
This works as expected in Hibernate 4. I upgraded to Hibernate 5.1.0 and started getting this exception:
UPDATE: This is not a Hibernate 5 specific issue. This actually happens just upgrading from hiberate 4.2.5.Final to 4.3.5.Final

The issue is clearly a null pointer exception but what is null? The error doesn't give any detail as to what is causing the null pointer exception. Any ideas on what is going on would be greatly appreciated.

I have read thousands of tutorials and blogs at the time, and can't find the error, this is why I post here. First the application:
try{
Context initContext = new InitialContext();
Context envContext = (Context) initContext.lookup("java:/comp/env");
dataSource = (DataSource)envContext.lookup("jdbc/myDb");
}catch(Exception e){e.printStackTrace();}
Then the applicationContext.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<bean

</bean>
</beans>
And finally the context.xml:
<!-- The contents of this file will be loaded for each web application -->
<Context>
<!-- Default set of monitored resources -->
<WatchedResource>WEB-INF/web.xml</WatchedResource>
<Resource name="jdbc/myDb" auth="Container"

url="jdbc:oracle:thin:#localhost:1521:VDC0W"
username="usuario" password="pass"
maxActive="100" maxIdle="40" maxWait="-1"
accessToUnderlyingConnectionAllowed="true" />
</Context>
As you will see it's super simple the definition... Still I've been getting that horrible exception for one whole day... I'm desperated... :(
I'm using eclipse and a tomcat server. Now I set the debug mode so that I can debug the application, but the exception comes when deploying.

In your web apps web.xml
<resource-ref>
<description>Oracle Datasource example</description>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/myDb</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>
And in application context:
<jee:jndi-lookup id="dataSource" jndi-name="jdbc/myDb" />
Finally in code:
try{
Context initContext = new InitialContext();
dataSource = (DataSource)initContext.lookup("jdbc/myDb");
}catch(Exception e){e.printStackTrace();}
