issue while deploying on weblogic 12c with autowiring SessionFactory - weblogic12c

Question

doing some POC work using hibernate4, Spring4, weblogic12c.
its looking for javax.persistence.Table.indexes while deploying and its fails everytime.
I have cross checked that hibernate-jpa-2.1-api-1.0.0.Final.jar is there in lib folder under WEB-INF.
Any help would be appreciated.

Update:
I ended up fixing this issue bu using below configuration in weblogic.xml under WEB-INF folder.
Actually weblogic 12c comes with JPA 2.0 and i was using JPA 2.1 and while deploying application the preference was given to server library. So here the fix that worked for me.
<wls:container-descriptor>
<wls:prefer-application-packages>
<wls:package-name>javax.persistence.*</wls:package-name>
</wls:prefer-application-packages>
