APPLICATION FAILED TO START

Description:

Field dao in com.bijit.service.CustomerServiceImpl required a bean of type 'javax.persistence.EntityManagerFactory' that could not be found.


Action:

Consider defining a bean of type 'javax.persistence.EntityManagerFactory' in your configuration.

-Saying entity manager bean not found in DaoImpl class, but I have defined it there.

package com.bijit.dao;

import java.util.List;

import javax.persistence.EntityManager;
import javax.persistence.PersistenceContext;
import javax.persistence.TypedQuery;
import javax.transaction.Transactional;

import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Repository;

import com.bijit.entity.Customer;

@Repository
@Transactional 
public class CustomerDaoImpl implements CustomerDao {

    @PersistenceContext
     EntityManager em;

    public List<Customer> findAll(){
        TypedQuery<Customer> query  =em.createQuery("Select c from customer c", Customer.class);
        return query.getResultList();

    }

    public Customer findById(Long id){
        return em.find(Customer.class, id);
    }

    public void deleteCustomer(Customer customer){
        em.remove(customer);
        }

    public void deleteById(Long id){
        Customer customer = findById(id);
        em.remove(customer);
    }

    public void saveCustomer(Customer customer){

        if(customer.getId()==null){
            em.persist(customer);
        }
        else{
            em.merge(customer);
        }
    }


}

Please help me out. Can't understand what the issue is. Tried using @Autowired also in place of @PersistanceContext still it's not working.

Please have a look on : [Injecting EntityManager Vs. EntityManagerFactory](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1310087/injecting-entitymanager-vs-entitymanagerfactory). BTW you say "_Saying entity manager bean not found_", but it is said `EntityManagerFactory` not found, it's not the same ;) — F0XS, Mar 27 '18 at 08:27

It is saying no bean of type 'javax.persistence.EntityManagerFactory' that could not be found

And in your class you are using - javax.persistence.EntityManager;

Is your build clean?

UPDATE

Try adding:-

@Bean
public LocalEntityManagerFactoryBean entityManagerFactory() {
    LocalEntityManagerFactoryBean em =
    new LocalEntityManagerFactoryBean();
    return em;
}

is your application spring-boot application? if yes then you should skip above bean.

do you have the following dependency in your project:-

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-data-jpa</artifactId>
</dependency>

And in your application.properties you may need to add db details something like this:-

spring.datasource.url=jdbc:h2:mem:amqp-demo;DB_CLOSE_DELAY=-1;DB_CLOSE_ON_EXIT=FALSE
spring.datasource.platform=h2
spring.datasource.username=sa
spring.datasource.password=
spring.datasource.driverClassName=org.h2.Driver
spring.jpa.database-platform=org.hibernate.dialect.H2Dialect

Most of the properties here will vary as per your database

I was using H2 db so things are more specific to those

Ya, my build is clean. Since I am using javax.persistence.EntityManager, then why it's asking for EntityManagerFactory? – Bijitashya Birinchi Mar 27 '18 at 09:46
are you autowiring the classes, i.e repository and service classes correctly? – kakabali Mar 27 '18 at 09:50
Yes, it's a spring boot project. All the autowiring are done correctly. – Bijitashya Birinchi Mar 27 '18 at 11:05
I have those data-source declarations in my application.properties. – Bijitashya Birinchi Mar 27 '18 at 11:08
please also share the `@SpringBootApplication` class – kakabali Mar 27 '18 at 11:12

It says that javax.persistence.EntityManagerFactory cannot be found. This class comes from JPA. Have you included a JPA provider in your project?

Yes, i have included that dependency. – Bijitashya Birinchi Mar 27 '18 at 11:06
I have added my pom.xml file for reference – Bijitashya Birinchi Mar 27 '18 at 11:09

Add following bean in your Application class

@Bean
public SessionFactory sessionFactory(@Qualifier("entityManagerFactory") EntityManagerFactory emf) {
         return emf.unwrap(SessionFactory.class);
}

Then autowire sessionFactory in your Dao as follows:

@Autowired
SessionFactory sessionFactory;

Now you can use sessions from this sessionFactory for accessing your DB

It's a spring boot app, I think it doesn't require separate bean definition. And I want to use entity manager for JPA implementation, not session factory which is used in Hibernate. – Bijitashya Birinchi Mar 27 '18 at 15:17
