Issue/Introduction

When trying to login to the Workstation, the following error was shown:

java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: javax.persistence.EntityManager.createQuery(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/Class;)Ljavax/persistence/TypedQuery;
at com.itko.lisa.gui.TestAdmin.setTestRegistry(TestAdmin.java:296)
at com.itko.lisa.gui.TestRegistryPanel.saveNewTestRegistry(TestRegistryPanel.java:127)

 

Cause

Possible causes:

1) Incorrectly placing files in lib that should really be in hotDeploy.  Even so, if hotDeploy and lib contain definitions for the same classes, there could be issues.

2) Mismatch between Workstation and Registry version.

Environment

All supported DevTest versions 

Resolution

Reinstalled DevTest as some files were corrupted
