I have a question @ http://www.inze.be/andries/?p=122 that you could answer for me. But basically, I am running into many problems when building your jBPM4 example from source, in that the maven dependencies are broken or missing, especially the 4.0.0-SNAPSHOT ones. Appreciate in advance your answers.

I am running into a problem and I can’t figure out what to do. Here’s the interesting part of the code:

org.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQLDialect
false
org.hibernate.cache.EhCacheProvider

true
true
org.hibernate.transaction.JDBCTransactionFactory
thread

classpath:hibernate.cfg.xml

classpath:jbpm.execution.hbm.xml
classpath:jbpm.repository.hbm.xml
classpath:jbpm.task.hbm.xml
classpath:jbpm.history.hbm.xml

When I start it up it works fine. However, hibernate throws an error:

Any ideas why it’s not getting my transactionManager? Your setup and mine are almost identical.
