org.datanucleus.exceptions.NucleusUserException: Error : Could not find API definition for name "JPA"

Question

Trying to create a java-se application using DataNucleus for dinamic generation of persistance unit by this code (which is in main method of Main class):

PersistenceUnitMetaData pumd = new PersistenceUnitMetaData("dynamic-unit", "RESOURCE_LOCAL", null);
pumd.addClassName("my.homework.entity.Procurement");
pumd.addProperty("datanucleus.ConnectionDriverName", "com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver");
pumd.addProperty("datanucleus.ConnectionURL", "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/" + schemaName + "?serverTimezone=Asia/Yekaterinburg");      
pumd.addProperty("datanucleus.ConnectionUserName", login);
pumd.addProperty("datanucleus.ConnectionPassword", password);
pumd.addProperty("datanucleus.schema.autoCreateTables", "true");

EntityManagerFactory emf = new JPAEntityManagerFactory(pumd, null);
entityManager = emf.createEntityManager();
ProcurementService procurementService = new ProcurementService(entityManager);

In idea the code works well. But when I'm trying to run application as an .exe file in Windows, I'm getting the error:

What should I do to remove this error?

Answer 1

Putting all three jar files:

   datanucleus-api-jpa-5.2.4.jar,
   datanucleus-core-5.2.3.jar,
   datanucleus-rdbms-5.2.3.jar

into the directory with .exe solving the problem.
