I have a web app for which I use JPA with Hibernate 5.2.10.Final for the backend. The problem is that when it tries to generate the connection it gives me ExceptionInInitializerError: No persistence provider for EntitiyManager named default and I have tried everything I have found on the internet (which has not been much because there are not many examples of Heroku with JPA that do not use Spring MVC) and nothing has worked. I really hope you can help me because I need it and for days I've been looking for the solution without success. Thanks in advance. Here is the error stacktrace:
