I am trying to persist a simple entity using hibernate + spring + Weblogic JTATransaction Manager. But getting "Synchronization not registered error"

I have not deployed the application in to weblogic container as I am using spring xml factory for getting reference to container services.

This happens with Hibernate 3.2.0

Here is the mapping that I am using:

<bean id="dataSource" class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource">
<property name="driverClassName" value="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"/>
<property name="url" value="jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:9101:abc"/>
<property name="username" value="xyz"/>
<property name="password" value="xyz"/>
</bean>

<bean id="transactionManager" class="org.springframework.transaction.jta.WebLogicJtaTransactionManager" />

<bean id="entityManagerFactory"
class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean">
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
<property name="persistenceUnitName" value="persistence" />
<property name="jpaDialect" ref="jpaDialect" />
<property name="jpaVendorAdapter">
<bean
class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.HibernateJpaVendorAdapter">
<property name="showSql" value="true" />
<property name="generateDdl" value="true" />

</bean>
</property>
<property name="jpaProperties">
<props>
<prop key="connection.datasource">TestSource</prop>

<prop key="hibernate.transaction.factory_class">org.hibernate.ejb.transaction.JoinableCMTTransactionFactory</prop>
<prop key="hibernate.transaction.manager_lookup_class">org.hibernate.transaction.WeblogicTransactionManagerLookup</prop>

<prop key="hibernate.jndi.url">

</prop>

</prop>
<prop key="hibernate.jta.UserTransaction">java:comp/UserTransaction</prop>
<prop key="hibernate.current_session_context_class">org.hibernate.context.JTASessionContext</prop>

</property>
</bean>
