G'Day all,
I have been trying to run the tutorial in Chapter 2 of the Hibernate reference that ships with Hibernate. When I run the tutorial, I get the following output

I have followed the tutorial to the letter, and I have checked that the jar files are indeed in the lib directory. I have searched the web for similar instances, and I am at a loss.

Any suggestions, tips, pointers, etc will be appreciated.

Thanking you in advance for your help,

Craig.

Read lib/README.txt, copy asm.jar to your classpath. It's also the first item in the FAQ.

G'Day Christian,
Thanks for thje reply, however what I don't understand is why should I copy it to the classpath?

I would like to stress that I have been following the tutorial in chapter 2, to the letter, and I get this error. This includes using the ant script, which sets the classpath that includes the directory (<project>/lib) that has the asm.jar file. As shown in the log output, the Hibernate3, CGLIB and hsqldb jar files are being successfully invoked and used, and these are in the same directory as the asm.jar, which cannot be found. All the jar files in the <project>/lib directory have the same permissions.

I hope you can see the problem I am having?

My apologies for what seems like a "read the FAQ"/"RTFM" style question, but to my perspective, it falls outside the assistance that the documentation supplies.

Thanking you for your help,

Craig.

Read the tutorial again. Follow the advice in the tutorial to check README.txt. Double check everything.

hi marauder13, i'm going to configure hibernate with tomcat, and i'm following the tutorial on the hibernate reference.
i didn't understand the part in wich it says that i have to add a resource declaration to the server.xml of tomcat, on page 8.
i detail, i don't know in which part of the server.xml i have to add the code suggested: in the <server> part? in the <service> one? basically it's only a matter of cut and paste, but i'm wondering WHERE to paste it!!!
thanks for your help
mox

i've read the readme.txt and i'm wondering if i'm right: i have copied the libs required in the context classpath, not in the global one (not in C:\Programmi\netbeans-4.0\nb4.0\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28\common\lib, but in C:\Programmi\netbeans-4.0\nb4.0\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28\webapps\quickstart\web\WEB-INF\lib)

actually i didn't finish the config because i'm editing the server.xml, but i hope i started with the right foot!

mox

G'Day Christian,
I will do as you suggest, particularly the double check part.

Thanks for your help,

Craig.

G'Day mox,
I'm doing the Tutorial in Chapter 2 (stand alone app), not the tutorial in Chapter 1 (Tomcat app). So, I'm sorry but I can't help you with that one.


Cheers,

Craig.
