    Hibernate Dialect must be explicitly set

    asookazian

      SEAM 1.2.1.GA
      JBOSS 4.0.5.GA

      Trying to exec a DAO method in a Seam-gen'd Seam app using JSF (MyFaces xhtml), SFSB, DAO, and Entity bean.

      getting following stack trace when I click the commandLink on JSF to exec the action method on the SFSB:

      Caused by: org.hibernate.HibernateException: Hibernate Dialect must be explicitly set
       at org.hibernate.dialect.DialectFactory.determineDialect(DialectFactory.java:57)
       at org.hibernate.dialect.DialectFactory.buildDialect(DialectFactory.java:39)
       at org.hibernate.cfg.SettingsFactory.determineDialect(SettingsFactory.java:409)

      I added the line "hibernate.dialect" line to the persistence.xml below and still getting the same exception after restarting the server and deploying app. I viewed the persistence.xml file in the JAR's meta-inf folder and it matches the one below. Why is it not reading/picking up the new version??? thx.

          I changed the persistence-dev.xml to the following and it fixed all issues. I don't know why seam-gen creates a version with more parameters/properties that confuses JBoss...

          <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
          <!-- Persistence deployment descriptor for dev profile -->
          <persistence xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence"
           xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
           xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_1_0.xsd"
           version="1.0">
          
           <persistence-unit name="shimsPUN">
           <provider>org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence</provider>
           <jta-data-source>java:/SHIMSDatasource</jta-data-source>
           </persistence-unit>
          
          </persistence>
