Hi Johan, We always welcome patches and bugs! If you would like to contribute then the best way would be to raise a bug against the JPA component of Aries in JIRA http://issues.apache.org/jira - it would be great if you could include your test case, and even better if your patch includes unit tests to prevent it regressing in the future!

If I use a persistence.xml where the elements are prefixed by a namespace as in:<pers:persistence xmlns:pers="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_1_0.xsd" version="1.0"> <pers:persistence-unit name="alpha"> <pers:properties> <pers:property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.driver" value="alpha.db.class"/> <pers:property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.url" value="jdbc:alpha:url"/> <pers:property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.user" value="alan"/> <pers:property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.password" value="4l4n"/> </pers:properties> </pers:persistence-unit> </pers:persistence> It is rejected by the PersistenceDescriptorParser, AFAIK using a prefix is valid and should be accepted. If it is indeed a bug and not ‘works as intended’ I believe it can easily be fixed by making the parser namespace-aware. I can send you a patch with tests if you are interested.
