hi, i have the same problem and dont know how to solve it. it occurs when i use the newest versions of hibernate, hibernate utils and mysql driver.

Did you find a solution?

Is the configuration file there in your classpath?

hi, thanks for your answer.

the cfg file is allready set and even when i set the classpath it wont run.

when i use the tutorial http://www.hibernate.org/hib_docs/v3/re ... orial.html

with a small modification it gives me the same error (i dont understand that because the tutorial should work)

i use hibernate 3.2 and a mysql database

the code:

public class Main {

public static void main(String[] args) {

Session session = HibernateUtil.getSessionFactory().getCurrentSession();

session.beginTransaction();

Projekt theEvent = new Projekt();
theEvent.setProjektnameGer("dsfakjdl");


session.save(theEvent);

session.getTransaction().commit();

HibernateUtil.getSessionFactory().close();
}

}

try including (manually though for testing purpose) the cfg file in classes folder and run. Looks like somehow this is not present in there.

ok i found the mistake. when creating the config and the source hibernate / hibernate tools forgets to set the following line

<property name="current_session_context_class">thread</property>

it also forgets the mapping files ...

when the line is inserted the conifg will be found

thanks anyway
