Read the documentation, a hbm.xml is not a cfg.xml.

Actuallu I do not how to solve the problem even after the documentation.
Any help could be appreciated!

Did you understand the second part of my sentence?

dilembo...

If you ever have problems with a dtd, just put the dtd path in a url and actually view the file. If you did, you would see that the elements being described are the elements found in the *.cfg.xml files not the *.hbm.xml files.

*.hbm.xml should refer to the following dtd


*.cfg.xml should refer to the following dtd


Your *.hbm.xml file is pointing to the wrong dtd.

Hope that helps,

Now he will come back when he has the next trivial problem instead of learning to read...

True...probably another case of RTFM.

newbies should have a basic understanding of XML and DTDs even when working just with config files...

-jay

I fix it....Regards
