The error message could have been more specific in the following way: a) no META-INF/persistence.xml has not been found in classpath b) META-INF/persistence.xml has been found but there is no 'ode-store' unit defined in it. c) META-INF/persistence.xml has been found but provider can not be loaded/invoked
When I first encountered this error, my interpreation was (b) from the way the message was worded.

It tells exactly why it's failed - "No Persistence provider for EntityManager named ode-store" is just a JPA version of "NoClassDefFoundError" in "pure" Java.
