Hi All,

I have configured 2nd level caching through JPA and Hibernate guidelines. The setup seems to be working, as I see query results being cached and also following warnigns while deploying the jar file. May I know the reason for showing these warnings? How can I fix these warnings? It seems that the ehcache.xml configs are not picked up for non defaults.

Here are configurations....

Where did you place ehcache.xml?
Ehcache looks for a file called ehcache.xml in the top level of the classpath so
you must place it in a directory which is referenced directly by your classpath.

Thank you so much for replying.

I'm using JBOSS 5.1 GA server and have placed the ehcache.xml under server/default/conf directoty. I can see that ehcache.xml is being read during the deployment.

The problem with <cache> tags, whatever name I have given for the cache name is not able to idetify and always it seems that using the default one.

some how the jboss is generating the huge text key to identify the cache entry in the ehcache.xml. I dont understand why is not generating the different cache name?
persistence.unit:unitName=TestCacheEJB.jar/#TestCache.org.hibernate.cache.StandardQueryCache
I'm looking that system should look for cache name as "org.hibernate.cache.StandardQueryCache"

<cache
name="org.hibernate.cache.StandardQueryCache"
eternal="false"
timeToLiveSeconds="120"
overflowToDisk="true"/>

and it shows following warning
14:02:08,846 WARN [AbstractEhcacheProvider] Could not find a specific ehcache configuration for cache named [persistence.unit:unitName=TestCacheEJB.jar/#TestCache.org.hibernate.cache.StandardQueryCache]; using defaults.

I fear that one of the special characters /#.:= is creating the trouble.
Probably this is a problem which is solved in newer Jboss Server versions,
have you to possibility to try with JBOSS 7 ?
