Debug level Hibernate log excerpt:

Hello, all i'm trying to do is open and close a session, but the above exception is being thrown right at this line:



This line is my by Session Factory class and the value of the macro is:


It seems to me that the Session Factory for some reason is not finding my configuration file, which i don't understand why, once it's located right under the src folder, where all the subsequent packages are.

No. It's not finding the dom4j jar file which is needed for XML parsing.

Check the documentation to see the required files which must be on the classpath.

You were right.

Well, it wasn't finding the dom.jar, but not because it wasn't there, but because i wasn't telling jdeveloper to use that file in the classpath.

Thanks a lot
Eduardo

Credit as useful please.
