Just add jta.jar to the classpath :)
it comes with Hibernate distribution

...but if it is not required - then we should not require it, right ? ;)

Is it actually required now ? (I don't think so....Gavin?)

What happens when you start without it ?

2.0.3 did not require it.
2.1 (beta6 at least) fails to start (class not found exception if I remember correctly)

ok - would have liked a stacktrace better ;)

Code:

- processing one-to-one association property references
- processing foreign key constraints
- Using dialect: net.sf.hibernate.dialect.OracleDialect
- Use outer join fetching: true
- No connection properties specified - the user must supply JDBC connections
- No TransactionManagerLookup configured (in JTA environment, use of process level read-write cache is not recommended)
- Use scrollable result sets: true
- JDBC 2 max batch size: 15
- echoing all SQL to stdout
- Query language substitutions: {false=0, no='N', yes='Y', true=1}
- cache provider: net.sf.ehcache.hibernate.Provider
- instantiating and configuring caches
- building session factory
- no JNDI name configured

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/transaction/Synchronization
   at net.sf.hibernate.impl.SessionFactoryImpl.openSession(SessionFactoryImpl.java:306)

ok - look at the code and me wonders how you could run 2.0 without jta.jar on the classpath....?

..but our VERSIONS file says jta.jar is optional - so either that file should be updated or code has to be changed in sessionimpl to avoid force load of jta....submit it to the JIRA and let Gavin fry ;)

It is required to be in the classpath in 2.1

I have just submitted a patch, HB-525, that patches the README file.
