javax.persistence.PersistenceException: No Persistence provider for EntityManager

[Tim Sangster]

Hello,

I made a site with jsp's and servlets. Using a model which was saved using arraylists.
Than I persisted this model, using a Main class I tested all the methods I created.
Now I need to use this persisted model in my site.
But,
I seemed to have forgotten some of the links or made some wrongs one.
Because whenever I go to the any second page of my site and the servlet gets a request, it crashes.
This is because it try's getInstance() of my db which creates an entitymaneger.
It crashes on this line:
emf = Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("BackPackPersistencyModelPU");
This is the full error:

This is my persistence.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<persistence version="1.0" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_1_0.xsd">

    <class>Player.Player</class>
    <properties>

      <property name="toplink.ddl-generation" value="create-tables"/>
    </properties>
  </persistence-unit>
</persistence>

Do I have to put my xml somewhere in the web project? I tried various places.
Right now I simple have the jar of the model in my library of the web project.
I have put my entire project in dropbox just in case I didn't include enough information,
this is the public link: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16098795/BackPackManagerPersisted.war

Any help is GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

Somewhere you need to make the EntityManagerFactory and subsequent EntityManager available within the web context.
eg http://javanotepad.blogspot.com/2007/05/jpa-entitymanagerfactory-in-web.html
(I haven't read all of that article, I hope it says everything I want it to ;) )

I'm trying to implement this but I create my entity manager in my model and the contextlistener needs to be in the web project.
I don't really get how to link those two.

What version of Glassfish are you using? The latest version using EclipseLink not TopLink Essentials.

Try removing the <provider> tag, you may not have TopLink Essentials on the classpath.
