Lev, OK. Well first of all as long as you have your persistence.xml in a location on the classpath under "/META-INF/persistence.xml" then Stripersist will find it. The second thing is that as Aaron pointed out you should use the static methods: Stripersist.requestInit(); ... ... Stripersi

Freddy, It would be "really" nice if there was a way to have say MockServletContext initialize itself from a web.xml file. That would be extremely useful when attempting to test things like Stripersist w/ Spring, etc... So when are you going to submit a patch to Stripes? ;-) :-) :-) --Niko

Lev, Sounds like you're getting closer! Now it looks like you need to check your JPA configuration - make sure your persistence.xml is correct and you've got all the jars to support it. I use Hibernate as the JPA provider and PostgreSQL as the database. Aaron On 07/06/2010 11:42 PM, Lev wrote:

Lev, The META-INF directory that contains persistence.xml needs to end up at /WEB-INF/classes/META-INF. It looks like the way you've set it up it would be at /WEB-INF/classes/resources/META-INF. What I was proposing was to create a new source folder called resources. In Eclipse you do that by c

Hi Lev, Is your persistence.xml in /WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/ or /META-INF/? It should be in /WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/. That is a huge source of confusion in JPA. :-( If you're using Eclipse I recommend creating a source directory named resources and then creating a subdirectory named WEB-INF
