The Java gods must be angry at me. Seems I can't get anything to work without coming here for help these days.

I'm onto the next step of my project -- getting my web service to interract with the database. I've added hibernate capabilities (something I've done successfully before)....and a working webservice now goes kaput.

Code:

public class RubyFTM_SDRSImpl implements IRubyFTM_SDRS {        public String example(String message) {       RubyFtmStg data = new RubyFtmStg();       data.setSource("test");       Session session = null;       Transaction transaction = null; //      try {          session = HibernateSessionFactory.getSessionFactory().getCurrentSession();          transaction = session.beginTransaction(); //         RubyFtmStgDAO dao = new RubyFtmStgDAO(); //         dao.save(data); //         transaction.commit(); //      } catch (Exception e) { //         String errMsg = e.toString(); //         if (transaction != null) { //            try { //               transaction.rollback(); //               System.out.println("transaction rolled back due to error: " + errMsg); //            } catch (Exception e2) {} //               System.out.println("error rolling back transaction"); //            } //      } finally { //         if (session != null) { //            try { session.close(); } catch (Exception e) {} //         }    //      }       return message;    }     }

Here's the method. You can see I've commented out most of the code. When all was commented out -- no problem. When this line is uncommented -- I get an error.

Code:

transaction = session.beginTransaction();

Code:

I get the error when Tomcat 5 (java 5) is started. I do have the hibernate classes in my project. Here's the services.xml

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <beans xmlns="http://xfire.codehaus.org/config/1.0">    <service>       <name>RubyFTM_SDRS</name>       <serviceClass>com.add.sdrs.IRubyFTM_SDRS</serviceClass>       <implementationClass>          com.add.sdrs.RubyFTM_SDRSImpl       </implementationClass>       <style>wrapped</style>       <use>literal</use>       <scope>application</scope>    </service></beans>

hibernate.cfg.xml

Code:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC           "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD 3.0//EN"           "http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd"> <!-- Generated by MyEclipse Hibernate Tools.                   --> <hibernate-configuration>    <session-factory>       <property name="connection.username">sdrs_stg</property>       <property name="connection.url">          jdbc:oracle:thin:sdrs_stg/netric2d@cht022h.sldc.sbc.com:1521:netric2d       </property>       <property name="dialect">          org.hibernate.dialect.Oracle9Dialect       </property>       <property name="myeclipse.connection.profile">          SDRS_STG       </property>       <property name="connection.password">stg4sdrs</property>       <property name="connection.driver_class">          oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver       </property>       <mapping resource="com/add/sdrs/RubyFtmStg.hbm.xml" />    </session-factory> </hibernate-configuration>

I'm stuck again.

ps -- reposted -- originally put in the wrong folder

Lee,

Can you check your server deploy folder to see if the Hibernate libraries are being deployed?
You need to check the settings under MyEclipse > J2EE Project > Web Project, check your Library Deployment Policy settings.

Thank you, thank you. I would have never figured that out. I did a check of the lib in my Tomcat/webapps/<myapp> directory and hibernate jar was not there (exploded deployment).

In my "Deployment" tab (that I never knew about), "use smart deployment" was chosen, I changed to "jar dependant" and redeployed my app -- and all is well.

Actually, it just allowed me to go on to the next bug - but I was able to handle that myself :)

A million thanks!

Lee
