Hello ,
i am new to hibernate and have a problem.
i get always the following exception on creating java beans from oracle tables.
org.hibernate.exception.GenericJDBCException: Could not get list of tables from database. Propably a JDBC driver problem.

i am using eclipse3.1.2, hibernate 3.1.2, hibernate tools 3.1.0 jsdk 1.4.2.10 and oracle 8i

is there any problem with this configuration?


the config file looks as follows....

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC
"-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD 3.0//EN"
"http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">
<hibernate-configuration>
<session-factory>
<property name="hibernate.connection.driver_class">
oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
</property>
<property name="hibernate.connection.password">
passwd
</property>
<property name="hibernate.connection.url">
jdbc:oracle:thin:@dbname:1521:po28
</property>
<property name="hibernate.connection.username">userid</property>
<property name="hibernate.default_schema">NVS</property>
<property name="hibernate.dialect">
org.hibernate.dialect.OracleDialect
</property>
</session-factory>
</hibernate-configuration>

Drazil.

Looks like the user you are connecting with does not have permissions to query and see ORACLE system views.

i've fixed the problem,
by using another oracle jdbc driver. the oracle 8i jdbc driver does not work well with hibernate but ojdbc14.jar for oracle 10g worked well.
