I'm getting the following prob, while working with spring & Hibernate f/w:

When I was executing this line: user = (User) getHibernateTemplate().load(User.class, userId);
I'm getting the following prob:

org.hibernate.LazyInitializationException: could not initialize proxy - the owning Session was closed
at org.hibernate.proxy.AbstractLazyInitializer.initialize(AbstractLazyInitializer.java:53)
at org.hibernate.proxy.AbstractLazyInitializer.getImplementation(AbstractLazyInitializer.java:84)
at org.hibernate.proxy.CGLIBLazyInitializer.intercept(CGLIBLazyInitializer.java:134)

Any Solution on this???

Don't close the session before you are done using it.
