Spring JPA java.lang.IllegalStateException: No persistence units parsed from {classpath*:META-INF/persistence.xml}

Question

I am facing below issue with Spring JPA. I have done java configuration with NO xml.

I am getting "java.lang.IllegalStateException: No persistence units parsed from {classpath*:META-INF/persistence.xml}"

Below is my application config class.

package co.in.desertlamp.configuration;

    @Bean

        localContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean.setDataSource(dataSource());
        return localContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean;
    }
}

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Your LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean needs to know the location of your @Entity classes.

So adding below properties should fix it:

localContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean.setPackagesToScan("path.to.your.entities");
localContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean.setPersistenceUnitName("name");
