Answer 1

1. First of all, Spring Boot with Weblogic, I think here you are mixing two web containers (probably wrong approach).

2. Regarding only to JPA exception is because is expecting JPA 2.1 and WLS 12.1.3 has support of it, but not by default. It is necessary to enable it (it is not in the classpath).
