ClassCastException while using FullTextIndexEventListener

Hi,
I'm tryin to setup Hibernate Search, but currently i don't get it.

i use:

Hibernate 3.2.6.
Hibernate Search 3.0.1.
Hibernate Commons Annotations 3.0.0.

i added the following to my hibernate.cfg.xml:

Code:

<property name="hibernate.search.default.directory_provider">org.hibernate.search.store.FSDirectoryProvider</property>
<property name="hibernate.search.default.indexBase">../indexes</property>
<event type="post-update">
   <listener class="org.hibernate.search.event.FullTextIndexEventListener"/>
</event>
<event type="post-insert">
   <listener class="org.hibernate.search.event.FullTextIndexEventListener"/>
</event>
<event type="post-delete">
   <listener class="org.hibernate.search.event.FullTextIndexEventListener"/>
</event> 

while starting up my application i get the following exception:

Code:

org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration: java.lang.ClassCastException: org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration
   at org.hibernate.search.event.FullTextIndexEventListener.initialize(FullTextIndexEventListener.java:82)
   at org.hibernate.event.EventListeners.initializeListeners(EventListeners.java:417)
   at org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration.getInitializedEventListeners(Configuration.java:1310)
   at org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration.buildSessionFactory(Configuration.java:1300)

i didnt use the annotations (except for the search-ones of course), instead i use hbm.xml files.

Could somebody tell me what i am missing or doing wrong here?

[edit: recognized it was the wrong versions, i updated them, but problem still stays the same]

thx in advance,

hage

this means you're having duplicates of hibernate core .jar on classpath.
Are you deploying on JBoss? hibernate-core is included in commons lib, don't include it in you war too!

You were right, in my eclipse one bad hibernate3.jar was still present. Thank you for your help!

Thats the solution to my problem. Thx a lot. I'm not deploying on JBoss, but i do have a jbossclient in my classpath, which itself contains its own hibernate, which was the root of the problem.
