I'm trying to deploy an EAR application running on Hibernate 3. I've been following the steps on https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/AS7/JPA+Reference+Guide https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/AS7/JPA+Reference+Guide by adding a module org.hibernate3 and adding in my persitence.xml: <property name="jboss.as.jpa.providerModule" value="org.hibernate3"/> My module org.hibernate3 contains the following jar and dependencies: <module xmlns="urn:jboss:module:1.0" name="org.hibernate3">     <resources>         <resource-root path="hibernate-core-3.6.6.Final.jar"/>         <resource-root path="hibernate-entitymanager-3.6.6.Final.jar"/>         <resource-root path="hibernate-validator-3.1.0.GA.jar"/>         <resource-root path="hibernate-commons-annotations-3.2.0.Final.jar"/>         <!-- Insert resources here -->     </resources>     <dependencies>         <module name="asm.asm"/>         <module name="javax.api"/>         <module name="javax.persistence.api"/>         <module name="javax.transaction.api"/>         <module name="javax.validation.api"/>         <module name="org.antlr"/>         <module name="org.apache.ant"/>         <module name="org.apache.commons.collections"/>         <module name="org.dom4j"/>         <module name="org.infinispan"/>         <module name="org.javassist"/>         <module name="org.jboss.as.jpa.hibernate3"/>         <module name="org.jboss.logging"/>         <module name="org.slf4j"/>     </dependencies> </module> My trouble is that when I try to deploy the application I get the following error: javax.persistence.PersistenceException: [PersistenceUnit: entityManagerFactory] Unable to configure EntityManagerFactory     at

hibernate-validator to hibernate-validator-4.2.0.Final.jar + hibernate-validator-legacy-4.0.2.GA.jar, but I'm still getting the same error. Is there a way to make validation working with Hibernate 3 on JBoss AS 7 ? Or should I disable validation (how?) ?
