I am having a problem retrieving a Hibernate session factory in my JBOSS web app. I am using JBOSS 5.1.0, Hibernate 3.3.1 and Netbeans 6.7.1.

I get this error:

javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: hibernate not bound

when I run this code:

_session_factory = (SessionFactory) ctx.lookup("java:/hibernate/GGGoMobileSessionFactory");

Contents of my hibernate-service.xml file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<server>
 <mbean code="org.jboss.hibernate.jmx.Hibernate" name="jboss.gggomobile:name=GGGoMobileSessionFactory">
 <attribute name="DatasourceName">java:/GGGoMobileDS</attribute>
 <attribute name="Dialect">
 org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect
 </attribute>
 <attribute name="SessionFactoryName">
 java:/hibernate/GGGoMobileSessionFactory
 </attribute>
 <attribute name="CacheProviderClass">
 org.hibernate.cache.HashtableCacheProvider
 </attribute>
 <attribute name="ShowSqlEnabled">true</attribute>
 <attribute name="ScanForMappingsEnabled">true</attribute>
 </mbean>
</server>

The Hibernate MBean is successfully started but the SessionFactory doesn't seem to be running. If I invoke the "rebuildSessionFactory" method on the Hibernate MBean, I get the following error:

Your help would be much appreciated because I have been stuck on this problem for a few days now. Thanks.
