Hi,
I'm working on this hibernate tutorial and am getting an error in the hibernate.cfg.xml file which says:
The content of element type "hibernate-configuration" must match "session-factory,security?".
Can someone explain me what that means?

Thanks,
Karthik

The hibernate configuration DTD http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibern ... on-3.0.dtd
mentions the following synatx.



It means there should be only session-factory element and one or more security elements.

So check your hibernate.cfg.xml file. When edit this file using any Java IDE like Eclipse, it should report the error in XML.

If you have still issues, pl post your hibernate configuration file (XML) here.

Thanks

here's my XML document.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding='utf-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC
"-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD //EN"
"http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">

<hibernate-configuration>
<sesion-factory>
<property name="show_sql">true</property>
<!-- <property name="connection.datasource">java:/comp/env/jdbc/AuctionDB
</property> -->
<property name="dialect">net.sf.hibernate.dialect.PostgresSQLDialect
</property>
<!-- Settings for a local PostgreSQL database. -->
<property name="query.substitutions">yes 'Y', no 'N'</property>
<property name="connection.driver_class">org.postgresql.Driver</property>
<property name="connection.url">jdbc:postgresql://localhost/project</property>
<property name="connection.username">postgres</property>
<property name="connection.password">postgres</property>

<mapping resource="org/store/events/Users.hbm.xml"/>
</sesion-factory>
</hibernate-configuration>


Thanks

check for the type sesion-factory. It should be session-factory

ooops....thanx :).now i'm getting a new error though, i get a message on my IDE across the DTD that says, "NETWORK IS UNREACHABLE:CONNECT" . I hope I'm not missing something again.

Thanks in advance.
