Hi,

I am working on developing an application using Spring (1.2.8) along with Hibernate (3.1), and I was getting the two runtime errors shown at the end of the post.

I solved the problems by coping the files "commons-dbcp-1.2.1.jar" and "commons-pool.jar" in Hibernate's distribution directory "lib."

I wanted to know why doesn't the Hibernate's distribution include these files ("commons-dbcp-1.2.1.jar" and "commons-pool.jar") if it is not going to work without them?

Thanks!
Daniel.

eh ? we don't support nor distribute any DBCP related things for a long time (at least not in H3's lifetime).

So you must be using something non-hibernate provided configuration thus you should go to them and ask ;)
