Connection cannot be null when 'hibernate.dialect' not set

Question

having more issues with seting up hibernate with spring3. this time it is saying that connection is nul as the dialect is not set which it is on my hibernate.cfg.xml file.

Answer 1

You did't post your session factory initialization code. But I guess this is the same problem with this one

From Hibernate 4.3.2.Final, StandardServiceRegistryBuilder is introduced. Please follow this order to intialize, e.g.:

Configuration configuration = new Configuration();
configuration.configure("com/jeecourse/config/hibernate.cfg.xml");

ServiceRegistry serviceRegistry = new StandardServiceRegistryBuilder().applySettings(
        configuration.getProperties()).build();
sessionFactory = configuration.buildSessionFactory(serviceRegistry);

Please double check your code.
