Since jboss-seam-jpa.war is the non-EJB version of the hotel booking application (i.e., it's in examples/jpa/, not examples/jpa/jee5/), it should work without the IBM EJB3 Feature Pack. I was able to get it working by packaging /WEB-INF/lib/ejb3peristence.jar (from the Hibernate EntityManager project) into jboss-seam-jpa.war. EJB3 feature pack not required.

I'll second the above. I have the JPA example working using the same approach Eric noted above (including the persistence APIs in the WAR file)

Since there are a lot of differences between WAS 6.1 and WAS 7.0, it should be noted that:
