jbmp 3.1 & EJB3 EntityManager

[ivanflorentin]

Hello all,
Starting from the problem discussed in:
http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=77402
and
http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=77397
about string_max, I included the configuration file in my persistence.xml as shown below:

<entity-manager>
 <persistence-unit name="myUnit">
 <provider>org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence</provider>
 <jta-data-source>java:myUnitDS</jta-data-source>
 <properties>
 <property name="hibernate.dialect" value="org.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQLDialect"/>
 <property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" value="none"/>
 <property name="hibernate.ejb.cfgfile" value="hibernate.queries.hbm.xml"/>
 </properties>
 </persistence-unit>
</entity-manager>

In the begining it did not find the mapping file in the META-INF folder of the .jar, I moved to the root of the jar and it finds the file now but it gives me the following error:

I guess it has something to do with hibernate 3.1 or the hibernate entity manager that changed from 3.0

I'm using: Jboss-4.0.4RC1 from cvs (today)
postgres 8.1.2
postgresql-8.2dev-501.jdbc3.jar
jdk 1.5.0_6
