That worked :-). I presume that file will not be there in the next release (or does it serve some purpose?). Thanks for the help, Anthony.

I am using the 2.1.0-M1 version of the modular spring archetype and I have followed the tutorials with JPA and SpringMVC. All works up until the controller tutorial (http://appfuse.org/display/APF/Using+Spring+MVC <http://appfuse.org/display/APF/Using+Spring+MVC> ), when I get a test failure for the PersonControllerTest: no persistent classes found for query class: select obj from com.my.company.model.Person obj After a bit of digging I discovered that I needed to add an entry in web/src/main/resources/META-INF/persistence.xml. This is kind of obvious but the issue was complicated by the presence of core/src/main/resources/META-INF/persistence.xml, which has a comment stating that adding entries is optional - so first I didn't realise that the file was in 2 places and then I thought that the optionality applied to both. None of this seems to be mentioned in the tutorial, and I think it ought to be. All that said, AppFuse is great and the tutorial is generally very well written and easy to follow. Is this the right place to request updates to the tutorial (and if not then where)?
