I am getting a MappingException (caused by a jdom DocumentException) when trying to do a proof-of-concept of Hibernate. I thought the problem could be due to the DTD, so I removed that from the XML and got the same problem.


Hibernate version 2.1

Mapping document:
<?xml version="1.0"?>

<hibernate-mapping>
<class name="hibtest.User" table="users">

<id name="ID" column="LogonId" type="string">
<generator class="assigned"/>
</id>
<property name="userName" column="Name" type="string"/>
<property name="password" type="string"/>
<property name="emailAddress" type="string"/>
<property name="lastLogon" type="date"/>
</class>
</hibernate-mapping>

Java code:
Configuration cfg = new Configuration()
.addClass(User.class)
.setProperty(Environment.HBM2DDL_AUTO, "create");

Full Stack Trace:
net.sf.hibernate.MappingException: Error reading resource: hibtest/User.hbm.xml

I am using the latest version of mySQL.

Any information is appreciated.
thanks,

Hibernate actually resolves its DTDs locally via the classpath, so that should not be the problem. Turn logging to debug and post the log output.
