无法解析hibernate.cfg.xml

Question

I am new to hibernate .. and I am facing some basic problems :

My xml is

<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC
    "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD 3.0//EN"
    "http://www.hibernate.org/dtd/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<hibernate-configuration
    xmlns="http://www.hibernate.org/xsd/hibernate-configuration"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.hibernate.org/xsd/hibernate-configuration hibernate-configuration-4.0.xsd"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<session-factory>
<!-- Database connection settings -->
<property name="connection.driver_class">com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</property>
<property name="connection.url">jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/database</property>
<property name="connection.username">user</property>
<property name="connection.password">user123</property>
<!-- JDBC connection pool (use the built-in) -->
<property name="connection.pool_size">1</property>
<!-- SQL dialect -->
<property name="dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect</property>
<!-- Enable Hibernate's automatic session context management -->
<property name="current_session_context_class">thread</property>
<!-- Disable the second-level cache  -->
<property name="cache.provider_class">org.hibernate.cache.NoCacheProvider</property>
<!-- Echo all executed SQL to stdout -->
<property name="show_sql">true</property>
<!-- Drop and re-create the database schema on startup -->
<property name="hbm2ddl.auto">create</property>
<mapping class="hibernateDTO.StudentDetails"/>
</session-factory>
</hibernate-configuration>

I have written 2 classes one which is entity class and other with a main method to store / read operations. I am using hibernate 4 and once I run my class I get exception

Nov 13, 2014 10:58:58 PM org.hibernate.Version logVersion

My jars are

hibernate-entitymanager-4.3.7.Final

antlr-2.7.7

dom4j-1.6.1

hibernate-commons-annotations-4.0.5.Final

hibernate-core-4.3.7.Final

jboss-logging-annotations-1.2.0.Beta1

jboss-transaction-api_1.2_spec-1.0.0.Final

and mysql-connector-java-5.1.33-bin

am I missing out in jars or have wrong jars?

Answer 1

You need to put your XML processing instruction above your DOCTYPE declaration, so to get rid of the XML parsing error, the start of your file should look like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC
    "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD 3.0//EN"
    "http://www.hibernate.org/dtd/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">

Second problem: you're referencing both a DTD file (for Hibernate version 3) and an XML schema (for version 4). You should probably get rid of the DOCTYPE declaration altogether.

Answer 2

First, the first line in all XML file, must be something similar to:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

So, you can try the next:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration SYSTEM 
"http://www.hibernate.org/dtd/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">

<hibernate-configuration>
  <session-factory>
    <!-- Database connection settings -->
    <property name="connection.driver_class">com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</property>
    <property name="connection.url">jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/database</property>
    <property name="connection.username">user</property>
    <property name="connection.password">user123</property>
    <!-- JDBC connection pool (use the built-in) -->
    <property name="connection.pool_size">1</property>
    <!-- SQL dialect -->
    <property name="dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect</property>
    <!-- Enable Hibernate's automatic session context management -->
    <property name="current_session_context_class">thread</property>
    <!-- Disable the second-level cache  -->
    <property name="cache.provider_class">org.hibernate.cache.NoCacheProvider</property>
    <!-- Echo all executed SQL to stdout -->
    <property name="show_sql">true</property>
    <!-- Drop and re-create the database schema on startup -->
    <property name="hbm2ddl.auto">create</property>
    <mapping class="hibernateDTO.StudentDetails"/>
  </session-factory>
</hibernate-configuration>

Answer 3

do it like

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC
        "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD 3.0//EN"
        "http://www.hibernate.org/dtd/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">

        <hibernate-configuration>
        <session-factory>

the problem you have done is you have again defined namespaced in hibernate-configuration tag.

    <!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC
    "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD 3.0//EN"
    "http://www.hibernate.org/dtd/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<hibernate-configuration
    xmlns="http://www.hibernate.org/xsd/hibernate-configuration"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.hibernate.org/xsd/hibernate-configuration hibernate-configuration-4.0.xsd"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<session-factory>
