I think I figured what is the issue.

I needed to add <provider> element as below. This element needs to be just after <persistence-unit...> element.

<provider>org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence</provider>

This solved the issue. I am no more getting the "Unable to build EntityManagerFactory" error. But I am not a next issue and different topic... looks like this is happening because of version mismatch between what has been shipped with Jboss vs What I am using in my project!!!

Thanks

I have added a tag

<exclude-unlisted-classes>false</exclude-unlisted-classes>

which will exclude the classes which have @Entity annotation and not mapped into persistence.xml file.

After adding this tag my this problem has solved.


Thanks

Hai I have removed tag, it is working fine for me. which validate the when application deploys in starting.

<property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" value="validate"/>
