I am trying to rewrite a site I maintain to using Hibernate. I create a JSP page for testing. The page works fine on my laptop under Mac OS X using Java 1.4.2_03 and Tomcat 4.1.29.

When I move it out to my "production" machine, which is FreeBSD 4.4 running Java 1.3.1 and Tomcat 4.0.6 I get the following exception in the SessionFactory:

I'm using MySQL with mysql-connector-java-3.1.3-beta-bin.jar on both systems.

Any ideas?

I have the same problem, does anyone know how to fix this?
