Instância EntityManager

Bom dia a todos! Ao tentar responder a questão que retorna a quantidade de movimentações dos exercícios do capítulo 7, tenho o seguinte erro e exceção conforme abaixo. Alguém poderia me indicar as causas do problema? Agradeço qualquer suporte antecipadamente.

Observação: meu ambiente de desenvolvimento estava funcionando perfeitamente até chegar nos exercícios do capítulo 7.

Grato, Vicente
