Question

Please help to resolve my problem, I am getting below error when I try to run my program on Apache Tomcat. I am using hibernate Core (5.2.9.Final) and Hibernate commons Annotations (5.0.1.Final) in struts2.

Logs information are below:

Answer 1

Exceptions like this will be thrown usually when there is a problem on the clean-build-deploy process, try manually delete previous compiled code , if in Apache tomcat, go to the folder with deployments and manually delete any past residuals.

EDIT: For future references the specific Exception:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.hibernate.engine.spi.SessionFactoryImplementor.getProperties()Ljava/util/Map

Is thrown by Hibernate when there's a conflict of libraries, (usually javax.persistence)

the approach suggested is to make sure that the libraries sub-dependencies (the dependencies used by these libraries) are not conflicted, the suggestion given is that itf it is possible to you, eliminate suspected libraries and check when the message reappears and then try to look for a compatible version.
