I'm converting my Hibernate persistence layer to use annotations, but when I deploy the app I get the following error:
Code:

The error doesn't tell me exactly where the problem is, but I gather that it's most likely associated with one of several many-to-many relationships to the User class. Here is one of those getUser() methods with the associated annotation:
Code:
@ManyToMany(fetch=FetchType.EAGER)
@JoinTable(name="reservation_user", joinColumns = {
@JoinColumn(name="reservation_key", nullable=false, updatable=false) }, inverseJoinColumns = {
@JoinColumn(name="user_key", nullable=false, updatable=false) })
@Cascade( {CascadeType.SAVE_UPDATE} )
public Set<User> getUsers() {
if (users == null){
users = new HashSet<User>();
}
return users;
}
This annotation was generated by hbm2java. I'm very new to annotations, but can anyone more experienced see anything wrong? Am I looking in the right place?
There were several posts on this error which noted that annotations should not be at both the field and getter level. Mine are all at the getter level, so that isn't the problem.
