AuditException: Unable to create revision because of non-active transaction

Question

I have been updating the frameworks on my application and now I'm trying to configure hibernate envers with JPA to audit some domains.

Regular persistence is working properly by Audit is failing with the error below

I've got this error

org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.HibernateSystemException: Unable to create revision because of non-active transaction; nested exception is org.hibernate.envers.exception.AuditException: Unable to create revision because of non-active transaction

My configuration is:

Any suggestion on how to fix it?
