TomEE 9 fails to load persistence unit with Hibernate 6.2 - NoSuchFieldError: UUID

I'm trying to start a TomEE server in version 9.0.0 and deploy a simple webapp.

I'm using Hibernate 6.2.2 as the provider for jpa and postgres

When i deploy the .war it gives me these errors (the stack is long i just put the severe):

 SEVERE [http-nio-8080-exec-3] jdk.internal.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke Error destroying child org.apache.catalina.LifecycleException: An invalid Lifecycle transition was attempted ([before_destroy]) for component [StandardEngine[Catalina].StandardHost[localhost].StandardContext[/servlet-jsp-jdbc-jpa]] in state [STARTING_PREP]

The structure is:

• webapp

  • META-INF

    • persistence.xml

    • context.xml

  • WEB-INF

    • web.xml

    classes (where i put all the compiled classes)

    • lib

      • hibernate-core-6.2.2.Final.jar

  • index.html

persistence.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<persistence version="2.2"
             xmlns="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/persistence"
             xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
             xsi:schemaLocation="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/persistence
                                 http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_2_1.xsd">

    <!-- NO JNDI -->
    <persistence-unit name="pu" transaction-type="RESOURCE_LOCAL">
        <provider>org.hibernate.jpa.HibernatePersistenceProvider</provider>
        <properties>
            <property name="jakarta.persistence.jdbc.driver" value="org.postgresql.Driver"/>
            <property name="jakarta.persistence.jdbc.url" value="jdbc:postgresql://localhost/MVC?currentSchema=public&ssl=false"/>
            <property name="jakarta.persistence.jdbc.user" value="******"/>
            <property name="jakarta.persistence.jdbc.password" value="********"/>
            <property name="hibernate.show_sql" value="true" />
        </properties>
    </persistence-unit>

</persistence>

context.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Context path="/servlet-jsp-jdbc-jpa" >
</Context>

web.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app>
    <display-name>servlet_jsp_jdbc_jpa</display-name>
</web-app>

These are the classes that are using the persistence-unit

package jpa;

import jakarta.persistence.EntityManagerFactory;
import jakarta.persistence.Persistence;
import jakarta.persistence.PersistenceUnit;

public class PersistenceManager {

    //@PersistenceUnit(unitName="JTA-pu")
    private static final EntityManagerFactory emf;

    static {
        emf = Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("pu");
    }

    private PersistenceManager() {
    }

    public static EntityManagerFactory getEmf() {
        return emf;
    }
}

package filters;

import jakarta.persistence.EntityManager;
import jakarta.persistence.EntityManagerFactory;
import jakarta.persistence.PersistenceContext;
import jakarta.persistence.PersistenceUnit;
import jakarta.servlet.*;
import jakarta.servlet.annotation.WebFilter;
import jakarta.servlet.http.HttpFilter;
import jakarta.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import jakarta.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
import jpa.PersistenceManager;

import java.io.IOException;

@WebFilter(value="/*")
public class SessionBinderFilter extends HttpFilter {

    // @PersistenceUnit(unitName="JTA-pu")
    private EntityManagerFactory emf = PersistenceManager.getEmf();

    // @PersistenceContext(unitName="JTA-pu")
    private EntityManager em = emf.createEntityManager();

    @Override
    public void doFilter(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response, FilterChain filterChain) throws IOException, ServletException {

        if (!(request instanceof HttpServletRequest) || !(response instanceof HttpServletResponse)) {
            throw new ServletException("non-HTTP request or response");
        }

        request.setAttribute("EntityManager", em);

        filterChain.doFilter(request, response);

        if (em.isOpen()) {
            em.close();
        }
    }
}

I can t understand the problem because i'm quite new on jpa and i searched a lot but i didn t find anything.

I tried also with JTA and RESOURCE_LOCAL with JNDI but nothing works, the problem is the same.

Any suggest or information is appreciated

TomEE 9.0.0 is compatible with Jakarta EE 9.1, which includes JPA 3.0.

Hibernate 6.2.x implements JPA 3.1 which includes API changes such as introducing UUID generators.

These spec changes aren't included in the API shade, which is used in TomEE 9. To fix your issue, you need to downgrade Hibernate to it's 6.1 series, which complies with JPA 3.0.
