I am trying to run my webapp on my weblogic 12c server using EJB 3.1, JPA 2.0, M2E-WTP, and JSF 2.1 technologies and continue to get the following error:
javax.ejb.EJBException: EJB
Exception: : java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No persistence unit named 'X'

This is the EJBBean that is triggering the exception
@Stateless
public class QuoteSessionEJB implements QuoteSessionEJBLocal {
/**
* Default constructor.
*/
public QuoteSessionEJB() {
// TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
}
@PersistenceContext(unitName="X")
private EntityManager em;
/**
* Returns a list of Quote objects in the database
* @return List<Customer>
*/
public List<Quote> getQuote() {
Query query = em.createNamedQuery("findQuotes");
return query.getResultList();
}
}
Here is the persistence.xml file which is located under src/main/java --> META-INF which eclipse built.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<persistence version="2.0" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence"

I have spent hours searching the web for answers with no avail. I don't understand why the persistence unit X in my persistence.xml cannot be located...
I'm hoping someone has ran into this same problem or know hows to fix it. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Update: Per better_use_mkstemp comment below I moved the META-INF folder containing my persistence.xml from src/main/java to WEB-INF/classes. I have to create the classes folder in eclipse. This worked! Much appreciated!
Following up question: Doing some more research I found that putting the META-INF folder in src/main/resources would also solve the problem, however it did not. I dont know if this is an issue with Maven's M2E-WTP eclipse plugin or I am simply misunderstanding something here. Below is a screen shot of the folder structure.
By browsing the war file the maven install command creates, I can see that the META-INF folder IS correctly placed in the WEB-INF/classes folder. But simply publishing to the server within Eclipse does not work. Unless I manually create the classes folder under WEB-INF and manually drop/move the META-INF folder in there I can't get it to work inside the IDE. Also it doesn't seem to make sense to have a copy of the META-INF folder in two places as a solution.
