While I run my simple Junit test for testing the the Jpa/Dao configuration I get the following error:

The version of spring-jdbc.jar seems quite old:

<dependency>
    <groupId>springframework</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-jdbc</artifactId>
    <version>1.2.6</version>
</dependency>

Use the newest available, DataSourceLookup was introduced in 2.0:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-jdbc</artifactId>
    <version>3.1.0.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>
