Hi guys!

I tried to found anything about my problem before posting but I couldn't! So, sorry if I am posting a question that has been already answered.

I am using Hibernate 3.0, Eclipse 3.1.0 and Hibernate tools 3.0 alpha 1 with MySQL database.

I create a configuration file(cfg.xml) and a console configuration. But then I get this exception under artifact generation:

Error under artifact generation
Reason:
org.hibernate.console.HibernateConsoleRuntimeException:Problems while loading databse driver class(com.mysql.jdbc.Driver)

Then I tried to connect using good and old jdbc code to find out if the problem was with the Driver. And it was not. The connection worked fine.

Am I doing something wrong? Can anybody help?

Thanks,
Leo.

did you add the driver jar to the classpath of the hibernate console as stated in the GUI and documentation ? :)

Sorry! I didn't add indeed.

But when I try, the drver jar does not appear in the add.. window of the conmfiguration console. And the jar is exported in my project. Is any more setting needed in order to add the driver jar to the console configuration?

the jar must be inside the project for the release you are using.

in cvs it can be external

Forget the last question. I added the driver jar.

It worked perfectly now!!!

Thank you!
