JPA Spring Injection EntityManager is null even if the save unit object is persisted

Question

I use JPA and spring to connect my JBOss server to the oracle database. A.

Here are my settings:

    </persistence-unit>

</persistence>

The spring context is usually initialized. I got a message:

Starting persistence unit unitDS

When I start my server.

I also have an abstract dao JPA where I insert my context using the @persistenceContext annotation:

public class AbstractDaoJpa<E, PK> implements DaoBase<E, PK> {

    /**
     * 
     */
    @PersistenceContext(unitName="unitDS")
    @Qualifier(value = "entityManagerFactory")
    private EntityManager em;

The problem is that when I try to connect to my database, EntityManager is always null.

I do not understand where this problem comes from. Am I having a bad configuration?

I tried several solutions to a similar message, but could not solve my problem.

Answer 1

, , Spring emf bean name, AbstractDao entityManagerFactory . , Spring bean.

Answer 2

, <context:component-scan base-package="your.package" />, .

Answer 3

, . new .

Answer 4

* in persistence.xml

• Context.xml , entitymanagerfactory, LocalEntity, LocalContainer JNDI Lookup.

  persistenceContext

    private EntityManager em;
  

, @transactional, @Repository

em = null, , Injection Dependency.
