Dear All,
I have encountered a problem in the following line of my application:

sessionFactory = new Configuration().configure().buildSessionFactory();

Basically, after working perfectly well for several days, this line now just hangs. I have not chnaged anything in the code of my app. Has anybody else had any similar problems?

Angus

could you please post debug logs?

Basically, the app hangs after the line quoted and the only output is this:

07-Mar-2006 12:07:12 org.hibernate.impl.SessionFactoryImpl <init>
INFO: building session factory

The code is surrounded by a try/catch block but the catch block isn't reached
