Hello:
I've been trying to use Hibernate to get the data for our Axis2 web services that are deployed on Tomcat5.5
My DAO works from a JUnit test case.
However, when I hook it up to the web service and deploy the service on Tomcat, I get this error from my Java Client:
org.apache.axis2.AxisFault: java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError on the client
and the server log has:
Caused by: org.hibernate.HibernateException: hibernate.cfg.xml not found

I've tried putting the xmls (hibernate.cfg.xml & <table>.hbm.xml) in -
axis2/.../WEB-INF/classes, axis2/...WEB-INF/conf it still doesnt work.

Where should these config files go?

Any help is highly appreciated!

Hi,

did you consider using Spring with Axis2? There is already support for Spring in Axis2 and Spring supports Hibernate. Spring Framework could solve a lot of other problems, too. Sorry, that I can't give a direct answer, but this approach works for me fine.
