I am new to springs. i want to implement JtaTransactionManager in my application instead of HibernateTransactionManager.But i am get following error when i write the following code in my xml.
<bean id="transactionManager"
class="org.springframework.transaction.jta.JtaTransactionManager"/>
On server start up following error occurs:-
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'transactionManager' defined in ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/resources/transaction-context.xml]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalStateException: No JTA UserTransaction available - specify either 'userTransaction' or 'userTransactionName' or 'transactionManager' or 'transactionManagerName'

So when you annotate a method with @Transactional , Spring dynamically creates a proxy that implements the same interface(s) as the class you're annotating. And when clients make calls into your object, the calls are intercepted and the behaviors injected via the proxy mechanism.
Transactional annotation provides the application the ability to declaratively control transaction boundaries on CDI managed beans, as well as classes defined as managed beans by the Java EE specification, at both the class and method level where method level annotations override those at the class level.
Hard to use the database to troubleshoot test failures Another problem with using @Transactional is that you can't use the database to investigate the failure reasons, as the data is never actually saved into the database because transactions are always rollback'd at the end of the test method execution.
Tomcat does not have a built-in JTA implementation, and so Spring will fail if you try and use JtaTransactionManager.
However, you can use JOTM, which is can be used within Tomcat to provide such functionality.
I have to ask, though - why do you want JTA to begin with? Isn't the hibernate transaction manager sufficient? If you find yourself needing JTA support, then you may want to consider using a full JavaEE app server (JBoss would be the obvious choice, since it includes Tomcat as its servlet engine), and make use of the proper, fully-supported JTA implementation there.

As skaffman sad, Tomcat does not have a built-in JTA implementation. So in order to use JtaTransactionManager in your application context you should put JARs of some JTA implementation (e.g. Bitronix) in Tomcat lib folder and put the following declaration in Tomcat's context.xml file
<Transaction factory="bitronix.tm.BitronixUserTransactionObjectFactory" />
That way Tomcat will create and expose UserTransaction which is used in initialization of JtaTransactionManager.
