部署hibernate应用程序时出现堆栈跟踪

java.lang.NullPointerException

它在我的HibernateUtil类中命中了NPE，第53行是创建EntityManager的行-
看起来createEntityManager（）返回的是null。代码看起来像

private static EntityManagerFactory entityManagerFactory = null;
private static EntityManager entityManager = null;

static {
    try {

        entityManagerFactory = Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("primary");
        entityManager = entityManagerFactory.createEntityManager();

我的persistence.xml看起来像

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<persistence version="2.0" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence"     xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_2_0.xsd"> <persistence-unit name="primary"> <jta-data-source>java:jboss/datasources/MySqlDS</jta-data-source>

  <properties>
     <property name="hibernate.dialect" value="org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect"/>
     <property name="hibernate.ejb.interceptor.session_scoped" value="com.mycompany.myapp.common.persistence.BusinessObjectInterceptor"/>
           </properties>

有什么想法为什么createEntityManager（）给NPE？
