						 Ugh, I have the same problem. I download all the hibernate jars via Maven (Hibernate 4.0.1, JPA 4.2, Persistence 1.0.1)
  I can connect via a class file create the connection and call the DB without any problems, but when I attempt to generate classes and such via the Hibernate tools, all I get is "Reading schmea error: null" ..and there is no stack trace shown.
  I have attempted configurations with sql drivers and jTDS, both have "ping successful", but still cannot read Schema.
  Also - running java 8 with Luna (eclipse)
  ANY help would be appreciated!!
  ( I should not- I am not a newbie here...this is just one problem I cannot seem to resolve)
