jBPM6.3+Hibernate4+Tomcat7+JPA2.0Exception: Unable to build EntityManagerFactory

I was trying to make this example work for me. Since my jbpm version is 6.3.0.Final, so this solution absolutely won't solve my problem.

My scenario is, firstly, I created a JPA & Dynamic Web Project by using Eclipse Mars1, and copied all the example files into my new project, then modified TaskProcessServlet.java, as shown below, because of the obsoleteness and deprecation of the Runtimepart in original servlet code. When I built my project and ran on independent Tomcat 7.0.64 other than server inside of Eclipse, and jsp showed up without any problem, but when I clicked create Processwhich will fire the TaskProcessServlet, I got an error message:

Error:[PersistenceUnit: org.jbpm.persistence.jpa] Unable to build EntityManagerFactory

Would my postgresql-9.4.1207.jar(for Tomcat8) be a problem? I don't think so because I kept getting same error in Tomcat 8, so I downgrade my Tomcat from 8.0.30 to Tomcat 7.0.64.

I'm able to run jbpm-console from JBOSS both on my Tomcat 8 and 7. Does this jbpm-console interfere my project?

How to tackle this problem?

Any idea would be appreciated, thank you very much.

Solution

  • Thanks Anton Giertli, Thank you for your attention.

    I've solved this problem after modifying my server.xml and adding a hibernate.cfg.xml for JPA by referring to here.

    But I still had consequential issues that I need to figure out.

    Thank you any way.
