From JBoss4 to JBoss AS7 HibernateUtil initialization

[haroonfoad]

Dear all,

I was running JSF1.2 , Richfaces3.3.3.Final, and hibernate3.2.6.ga on JBoss 4 successfully.

But when migrating to JBoss AS7 , I face this error.

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class com.lit.wessald.mavenproject6.hibernateutil.HibernateUtil

And this is my HibernateUtil.java

package com.lit.wessald.mavenproject6.hibernateutil;
    
import org.hibernate.SessionFactory;
import org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration;
  
/**
 * Hibernate Utility class with a convenient method to get Session Factory object.
 *
 * @author hfoad
 */
public class HibernateUtil {
    private static final SessionFactory sessionFactory;
    static {
        try {
            // Create the SessionFactory from standard (hibernate.cfg.xml) 
            // config file.
            sessionFactory = new Configuration().configure().buildSessionFactory();
        } catch (Throwable ex) {
            // Log the exception. 
            Log.getLogger(HibernateUtil.class.getName()).error("Initial SessionFactory creation failed." + ex);
            throw new ExceptionInInitializerError(ex);
        }
    }
  
    public static SessionFactory getSessionFactory() {
        return sessionFactory;
    }
}

Any idea solving this issue?

Thanks.

Thanks Allah,

I have solved this issue by making changes in pom.xml as follow:

1. change hibernate library from

     <dependency>

            <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>

            <artifactId>hibernate</artifactId>

            <version>3.2.6.ga</version>

            <scope>provided</scope>

      </dependency>

to

     <dependency>

            <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>

            <artifactId>hibernate-core</artifactId>

            <version>3.6.10.Final</version>

     </dependency>

2.change the scope of the following dependency from provided to compile

     <dependency>

            <groupId>commons-collections</groupId>

            <artifactId>commons-collections</artifactId>

            <version>3.2</version>

     </dependency>

3.Add this dependency

     <dependency>

            <groupId>javassist</groupId>

            <artifactId>javassist</artifactId>

            <version>3.12.1.GA</version>

     </dependency>

Thanks all.
