I am trying to deploy a spring 3.0.5 App in JBoss 5.1 AS.
First of all, when I add any @Transactional annotated methods for insert or update operations the app fails to deploy since autowiring fails.
I have tried declarative transactions both via transactional annotations and aop based xml declarations, both fail to deploy.

Can someone please help or point me in the right direction?

Here's my spring-config xml

Code:
	<jee:jndi-lookup id="entityManagerFactory" jndi-name="java:/ties-2EntityManagerFactory">
	</jee:jndi-lookup>
	<bean id="transactionManager" class="org.springframework.transaction.jta.JtaTransactionManager" />
	 
	<aop:config>
	  <aop:pointcut id="allTransactions" expression="execution(* com.rtd.ties2.dao.*.*(..))"/>
      <aop:advisor pointcut-ref="allTransactions" advice-ref="txAdvice" />
    </aop:config>

    <tx:advice id="txAdvice" transaction-manager="transactionManager">
      <tx:attributes>
        <tx:method name="save*" propagation="REQUIRED"/>
        <tx:method name="merge*" propagation="REQUIRED"/>
        <tx:method name="delete*" propagation="REQUIRED"/>        
        <tx:method name="*" propagation="SUPPORTS" read-only="true"/>
      </tx:attributes>
    </tx:advice>
persistence.xml

Code:
   <persistence-unit name="ties-2" transaction-type="JTA">
      <provider>org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence</provider>
      <jta-data-source>java:/ties-2Datasource</jta-data-source>
      <!-- The <jar-file> element is necessary if you put the persistence.xml in the WAR and the classes in the JAR -->

      <properties>
         <property name="hibernate.dialect" value="org.hibernate.dialect.Oracle10gDialect"/>
         <property name="hibernate.show_sql" value="true"/>
         <property name="hibernate.format_sql" value="true"/>
         <property name="jboss.entity.manager.factory.jndi.name" value="java:/ties-2EntityManagerFactory"/>
           
      </properties>
   </persistence-unit>
    
</persistence>
