Could not parse configuration: /hibernate.cfg.xml

kenp · **Joined:** Tue Apr 11, 2006 4:20 pm **Posts:** 14

Required help documentation below.. In the java stack trace, it is pointing to my class file SaveTasks line 18, which is the second line in the below code (cfg.configure().buildSessionFactory();

The application is on a stand alone network that is not connected to the internet and cannot be... I have the configuration file DTD in my WAR file and constructed the configuration xml off the DTD (using eclipse as my IDE). The DTD location in my hibernate.cfg.xml is as follows:

<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration SYSTEM "hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">

The DTD is located in my classpath (WEB-INF) directory.

My configuration is as follows (left out required elements hib-config and session-factory)... I changed the username and password, but ensured the actual settings are correct.

Code:

<property name="connection.username">username</property>
<property name="connection.password">password</property>
<property name="connection.url">jdbc:mysql://localhost/test</property>
<property name="connection.driver_class">com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</property>
<property name="dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect</property>

<mapping resource="tasks/TaskForm.hbm.xml"/>

What is causing this problem?

Hibernate version:
3.1
Mapping documents:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-mapping SYSTEM "hibernate-mapping-3.0.dtd">
<hibernate-mapping package="tasks">
<class name="TaskForm" table="tasks">
<id name="id" column="id" type="long">
<generator class="native"/>
</id>
<property name="title" type="string" length="100"/>
... several more properties, syntax is correct (triple checked)
</class>
</hibernate-mapping>

Code between sessionFactory.openSession() and session.close():

Code:

Configuration cfg = new Configuration();
SessionFactory sessionFactory = cfg.configure().buildSessionFactory();
Session session = sessionFactory.openSession();

TaskForm taskForm = (TaskForm) form;

session.saveOrUpdate(taskForm);
session.flush();
session.close();

Is that the full stack trace? Generally I find the stack is a bit longer and includes some valuable information when hibernate.hbm.xml is flawed.

the application i am developing is on a stand alone network... meaning not connected to the internet. I have no means of coping the full thing over to this message board. I plan not to type out the complete stack... Is there something in particular I should look for? The only noticable item I found was the line 18 in my code. But basically that tells me the configure() function could not completly parse the hibernate.cfg.xml file. Does this mean I have a malformed xml file? Possibly a typo?

Post the full content of your hibernate.cfg.xml please

The problem is that your system cannot find the hibernate-mapping-3.0.dtd file.

I have the DTD and the hibernate.cfg.xml file in the same folder. If the location stated above is not correct, what should I insert instead?

I don't know.
I told you because that's the error that eclipse tell me if I use

Code:

<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration SYSTEM "hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">

in that case it looks for c:\eclipse\workspace\hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd
but if I use

Code:

<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC
    "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD//EN"
    "http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">

I don't have any problem

I'm with the same problem. I think the hibernate.cfg.xml is wrong.

In your property names, should you remove the hibernate.

Example..

<property name ="connection.url">the url</property>

I changed my DOC type to say this

Code:

<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration SYSTEM "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD//EN hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd"> 

No resolve... If i remove the doctype statement all together, it returns an invalid configuration... I wonder if my problem lies else where.

That is interesting, I will give it a shot..

However...

I enabled log4j (didn't have the properties file in my war classpath). After reviewing the logs I found that even though I gave just the file name (i assumed the parser would look in the same directory as the XML file), instead the parser was begining at the root of the tomcat folder! And when I executed the application from eclipse it was looking in the root of the eclipse folder! I guess that is what happens when I specify the SYSTEM property. When I hardcoded the path to the DTD in my hibernate.cfg.xml file, it worked! Then it stumbled when referecing my mapping files...

Could no read mappings from resource

Not sure if it is a simular DTD error, I will hard code the path again.

The only problem I have with this hard coding is that it is hard coded... How can I tell the parser to look in the same folder as the .xml file??? I think that would be the most dynamic way of doing it.

After hard coding the path to the mapping dtd, I was able to get the application to make it further. I guess as a resolution, I could host the DTD files on our web server, change the SYSTEM back to public and point the hibernate.cfg.xml file to that.

Now I am getting this error. I have no idea what it means and now idea of how to fix it. Anyone know?

that would work, but i forgot to include the ehcache.jar file... I included that, we are cooking...

I am at the point now the application works. The sql shows the insert command however, the values are ?, ?, ?, .... etc

I have a struts action form. The actionForm takes in the values from a web form, 8 fields total. Each field has a get and set method plus a get and set method for an id. I want to take the values from the actionForm and persist them to the database. I can system.out.println(actionForm.getName) and it works... but when I issue a session.save(actionForm) the values are not present... Whats the deal?
