Hi

I have configured a dao object using LocalSessionFactoryBean and injected Atomikos userTransactionManager. I can see that there is a transaction running with a specific id. But when I try to save a object using the dao I see the following error in Hibernate:

[2010-06-30 11:34:18.489] Thread-92 org.hibernate.transaction.JTATransaction DEBUG Looking for UserTransaction under: java:comp/UserTransaction

Any reason why Hibernate is still looking in jndi to find a session? I even tried the Hibernate properties approach and it's the same result. Any help is much appreciated.

thanks
