You're having a problem because you're using relatively old frameworks. They are dependent upon a version of JTA that could not be made available in a public repository due to licensing restrictions. In that era there were a number of artifacts like this that we had to download from Sun (after agreeing to the licence) and install in our own local repository.

Thankfully, in your case you just need to add:

<dependency>
    <groupId>javax.transaction</groupId>
    <artifactId>jta</artifactId>
    <version>1.1</version>
</dependency>

to your pom.xml and that should override the older version.

This is a newer version but it only contains API classes (not implementations) and I believe that it is backward compatible.
