        session = sessionFactory.openSession();

        session.beginTransaction();

        user = (DatabaseClass)session.get(DatabaseClass.class, 1);

        String name = user.getName();

        session.getTransaction().commit();

        session.close();

        return name;

Answer 1

Use try catch block for getting the appropriate exception

public String getDatabaseUser(){
        DatabaseClass user = null;
try{
        sessionFactory = new Configuration().configure().buildSessionFactory();

        session = sessionFactory.openSession();

        session.beginTransaction();

        user = (DatabaseClass)session.get(DatabaseClass.class, 1);

        String name = user.getName();

        session.getTransaction().commit();
        session.close();
    }catch(Exception e){
       e.printStackTrace();
     }
    return name;
        }

<property name="hibernate.connection.url"> jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/logindetail</property>

Here use only

<property name="hibernate.connection.url"> jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/login</property>

You have provided there may be problem due to incorrect package path.
