Hibernate-Could not parse mapping document from input stream

Question

I have builded a java application(maven) to run on server.I use Eclipse Luna, Spring 4 and Hibernate 4.When I run it, I have an error:

SEVERE: Exception sending context initialized event to listener instance of class org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'sessionFactory' defined in ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF//applicationContext.xml]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is org.hibernate.InvalidMappingException: Could not parse mapping document from input stream

Searching similar questions on web,I thought it occurs due to lack of some hibernate dependencies and added them.But it didn't work.Now, I am out of ideas!

My project is here: https://github.com/fsel/Spring-Hibernate-JSF-MySQL-Eclipse-Integration/tree/master/Spring-Hibernate-JSF-MySQL-Example

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

The Person Class is loaded twice.

In Spring configuration - applicationContext.xml file you have :

<property name="mappingResources">
            <list>
                <value>domain-classes.hbm.xml</value>
            </list>
        </property>

Also in hibernate configuration - hibernate.cfg.xml file you are loading it once again:

<mapping resource="domain-classes.hbm.xml"/>

To fix the issue, just remove one of the above entries, either from Spring configuration file or Hibernate configuration file.

I have just edited both files, it now works.Thanks for the reply! — oddly, Apr 21 '15 at 09:38

Caused by: org.hibernate.DuplicateMappingException: Duplicate class/entity mapping com.hibernate.data.Person

at org.hibernate.cfg.HbmBinder.bindRoot(HbmBinder.java:178)

above exception convey that there are duplicate mapping for com.hibernate.data.Person

your hinernate.cfg.xml has below code

<hibernate-configuration>
<session-factory>
<!-- Database connection settings -->
<property name="hibernate.connection.driver_class">com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</property>
<property name="hibernate.connection.url">jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/PERSONDB</property>
<property name="hibernate.connection.username">fulden</property>
<property name="hibernate.connection.password">secret_pass</property>
<!-- SQL dialect -->
<property name="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect</property>
<!-- Specify session context -->
<property name="hibernate.current_session_context_class">thread</property>
<!-- Show SQL -->
<property name="show_sql">true</property>
<!-- Referring Mapping File -->
<mapping resource="domain-classes.hbm.xml"/>
</session-factory>
</hibernate-configuration>

and your applicationContext.xml has below code

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:tx="http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx"

</bean>
<!-- Define SessionFactory bean -->
<bean id="sessionFactory"

<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
<property name="mappingResources">

</list>
</property>
<property name="configLocation">
<value>classpath:hibernate.cfg.xml</value>
</property>
</bean>
<!-- Transaction Manager -->
<bean id="transactionManager"

<property name="sessionFactory" ref="sessionFactory" />
</bean>
<!-- Detect @Transactional Annotation -->
<tx:annotation-driven transaction-manager="transactionManager" />
</beans>

if you closely observe both files you are duplicating hibernate mapping resource

In hibernate.cfg.xml

<mapping resource="domain-classes.hbm.xml"/>

In a applicatinContext.xml

<property name="mappingResources">
    <list>
    <value>domain-classes.hbm.xml</value>
    </list>
    </property>

solution: removing mappingResources property from applicatinContext.xml file should resolve you problem

thank you

You do not have a constructor without arguments in Person.

Hibernate, and code in general that creates objects via reflection use Class.newInstance() to create a new instance of your classes. This method requires a public no-arg constructor to be able to instantiate the object. For most use cases, providing a no-arg constructor is not a problem.

I added a no argument constructor to the Person class.But it still gives the same error:/ – oddly Apr 21 '15 at 09:33
@oddly You had had it there already before. Java creates a default constructor if there is none. – banterCZ Apr 21 '15 at 10:22
