   I used this tip with GlassFish v3 bundle with Netbeans and changed hibernate.transaction.manager_lookup_class value to org.hibernate.transaction.SunONETransactionManagerLookup. Problem solved! Thanks!

   Thanks also (on glassfish v3). I’m doing the tutorial for Wicket+JPA but now have another Hibernate problem: The CustomerJpaController.getCustomerCount() causes an exception—
   java.lang.AbstractMethodError:
   org.hibernate.ejb.EntityManagerImpl.getCriteriaBuilder()Ljavax/persistence/criteria/CriteriaBuilder;
   Strangely enough, my first build used EclipseLink and encountered the same problem (so I rebuilt with Hibernate)
   Running with JDk1.5, NB 6.8, and glassfish V3. Will provide glassfish log if needed.
   Any thoughts?
