Name and version of the database you are using: postgresql 7.4

Debug level Hibernate log excerpt: DEBUG

I traced through the source and the reason why hibernate.cfg.xml is not found is because it expects it in net/sf/hibernate/cfg. hibernate.cfg.xml I am running SchemaExport in eclipse and made sure that my hibernate.cfg.xml is in the classpath. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

I too have this problem when using the SchemaExport tool. I was trying to generate the ddl from the .hbm.xml file using SchemaExport from command line. Here's the command I entered:

java -classpath hibernate2.jar;odmg-3.0.jar;log4j-1.2.8.jar;ehcache-0.9.jar;dom4j-1.4.jar;commons-logging-1.0.4.jar;commons-collections-2.1.1.jar;cglib-full-2.0.2.jar net.sf.hibernate.tool.hbm2ddl.SchemaExport --text --output=catTable.ddl --config=hibernate.cfg.xml --properties=hibernate.properties --format Cat.hbm.xml


I have confirmed and re-confirmed that all the listed JAR files, hibernate.cfg.xml, and Cat.hbm.xml files exists in the expected directory and are spelled correctly. The following is the error received:

net.sf.hibernate.HibernateException: hibernate.cfg.xml not found

)


I am running on XP using Hibernate 2.1.6. I would appreciate any comments and suggestions. Thanks in advance!

the work around I use was to put hibernate.cfg.xml in net/sf/hibernate/cfg

make sure net/sf/hibernate/cfg is in your classpath. this is a hack
