Can somebody help me ???
If somebody needs i can post my ConfigFile too.
Thanx for Help

EHCache is listed as a required third-party library for hibernate, and the jar is included in the archive. Just make sure it's on your classpath.

Make sure you have the other libraries too. Here's where they are listed (Table 1.1):
http://www.hibernate.org/hib_docs/v3/reference/en/html_single/#quickstart-intro

I should have believed in the Tutorial to use ant. There have been quite a few more jars to be referenced by Hibernate.

Thank you.

Guys, I got exactly the same prolem!
Except my tabel has a name "Shopping Cart"!

The answer is in the post. Reference the jars and the exception will disappear. This problem was half a year ago so i can´t say what the problem really was, but i think the answer fixed my problem.

sorry, wrong topic :(
