Configure JBOSS 7.1 to use application-managed entity manager as opposed to container-managed entity manager

I am trying to upgrade my application deployment from Jboss 6.4 to Jboss 7.1 and I've not been able to get past this error:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: WFLYWELD0037: Error injecting persistence unit into CDI managed bean. Can't find a persistence unit named 'entityManagerFactory' in deployment ***.war for injection point private javax.persistence.EntityManager com.***.persistenceManager"}}}}}}}}
I have entityManagerFactory defined as a bean in Spring's applicationContext.xml file as shown below:
<bean id="entityManagerFactory" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean">
<property name="persistenceUnitName" value="extiPU" />
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
<property name="jtaDataSource" ref="dataSource" />
<property name="jpaVendorAdapter">
<bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.EclipseLinkJpaVendorAdapter">
<!--<property name="database" value="ORACLE" />-->
<property name="showSql" value="true" />
<property name="databasePlatform" value="org.eclipse.persistence.platform.database.OraclePlatform" />
<property name="generateDdl" value="true" />
</bean>
</property>
<property name="jpaDialect">
<bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.EclipseLinkJpaDialect" />
</property>
</bean>
and the content of my persistence.xml is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<persistence version="2.0"
xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

<properties>
<property name="eclipselink.logging.level" value="OFF" />
<!--

<property name="eclipselink.logging.level.sql" value="OFF" />
<property name="eclipselink.logging.parameters" value="false" />

<property name="eclipselink.target-database" value="Oracle" />
<property name="eclipselink.weaving" value="false" />
<property name="jboss.as.jpa.managed" value="false" />
</properties>
</persistence-unit>
In my persistence classes, I inject it by doing:
#PersistenceContext(unitName = "entityManagerFactory")
private EntityManager persistenceManager;
With all these done, I still cannot figure out why Jboss 7.1 does not allow the persistence manager to be application managed.

Tomcat 8 hangs on startup

I'm trying to start my Tomcat server on Eclipse but it always hangs on this line on the logs
14:44:52.467 INFO o.s.o.j.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean - Building JPA container EntityManagerFactory for persistence unit 'default'
I've even set the timeout to 999 seconds and still will timeout.
I'm trying to start my Spring webapp using Maven.
So I may pinpoint the cause of the hang, what is happening during Building JPA container EntityManagerFactory for persistence unit 'default'? And why is it hanging there?
Here is my context.xml in Tomcat

javax.transaction.Transactional isn't (yet) supported. Use either javax.ejb.TransactionAttribute or org.springframewor.transaction.annotation.Transactional.

the error i get is
[PersistenceUnit: xyz] Unable to build EntityManagerFactory
can any one tell me the mistake

The main problem was that the entites was not generated properly. so at the end of the stacktrace it was giving this error
Caused by: org.hibernate.MappingException: property mapping has wrong number of columns: com......date type: object
once the entity was generated correctly the problem was solved

Someone answered here:
If you define your persistence unit with the JTA transaction type, you
need also to define your datasource inside the jta-data-source
attribute.
Try adding this to your ApplicationContext.xml
<jee:jndi-lookup id="dataSource" jndi-name="your-jndi-name" />
and the following to <persistence-unit> element in persistence.xml:
<jta-data-source>your-jndi-name</jta-data-source>

You are getting this error because you have mapped your domain object datatype to be java.lang.Object. map it to more specific like a String, int, long...

How to get automatic table creation working in spring / hibernate / jpa?

Thanks for any help :).

try the following:

<props>
...
<prop key="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto">create-drop</prop>
</props>
</property>
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
</bean>
This works for me.

I had exactly the same issue...
Commenting out property
<!--property name="generateDdl" value="true"--> in the JpaAdapter,
but setting
<property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" value="create"/> in persistence.xml
worked for me. I am using hsqldb.
I noticed in the logs that the mode was beign set to update no matter what I set in
persistence.xml.
The value in persistence.xml was actually picked up but never applied.
I am using Spring 3.0.6 and Hibernate 4

Can you try changing the generateDdl property to false on HibernateJpaVendorAdapter in your spring config file.
Seems to conflict with the hibernate hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto property
See https://jira.springframework.org/browse/SPR-6836 for more info.

In My hibernate-default.cfg.xml i used
<property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto">update</property>
and it worked perfectly, so the config file was as follows
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD 3.0//EN" "http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">
<hibernate-configuration>
<session-factory>
<property name="dialect">
org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect
</property>
<property name="current_session_context_class">thread</property>
<!-- When an HQL statement declares a true/false, replace with the standard Y/N -->
<property name="hibernate.query.substitutions">true 'Y', false 'N'</property>
<!-- A useful property do debugging queries. Besure sure it is false or commented out when going PROD -->
<!-- <property name="hibernate.show_sql">true</property> -->
<!-- Format the printed out SQL generated by Hibernate -->
<property name="hibernate.format_sql">false</property>
<!-- If enabled, Hibernate will collect statistics useful for performance tuning - JMX -->
<property name="hibernate.generate_statistics">false</property>
<property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto">update</property>
<mapping class=....

sadly both solutions didn't work for me :(. "hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto=update" would be also ok, as it should create the tables if they're not present.
It seems that all property settings from the persistence.xml are recognized as username and database provider are set correctly. Sadly the tables aren't created at startup which causes my testcase to fail as the SELECT statement throws an error ...
As you can see, I've set the connection url to use a local file database, which allows me to review the database log after the test run. But the log file is still empty after the test run, even no error is written to it :(.

This worked for me
<bean id="dataSource" class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource">
<property name="driverClassName" value="org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver" />
<property name="url" value="jdbc:hsqldb:mem://productDb" />
<property name="username" value="sa" />
<property name="password" value="" />
</bean>
<property name="jpaVendorAdapter">
<bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.HibernateJpaVendorAdapter">
<property name="generateDdl" value="true" />
<property name="showSql" value="true" />
</bean>
</property>
If I change value to false like this<property name="generateDdl" value="false" /> then I get SqlExceptionHelper:144 - Table not found in statement

Maybe to late, but today I had the same problem when I was writing some tests for a legacy app.
I was using spring 2.5, hibernate3, and HSQL database.
To solve it I changed the database from HSQL to H2 and the datasource from org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource to org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource.
The spring-context.xml looks like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

</beans>

I hope it helps.

In my case, the tables were not been created because the objects annotated with #Table where not annotated as #Entity
