When I googled on this problem some said that we should be using springframework.orm.hibernate4 instead of springframework.orm.hibernate3. I did that. But still I am getting the same exception.

Can someone help me in Identifying what am I missing here.

Thanks

Note : org.hibernate.cache.Provider was removed in the change from Hibernate 3 to Hibernate 4.

If you use hibernate 3, you may get the java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.hibernate.cache.CacheProvider. If you change to hibernate 4, you will not get that, but you firstly should add hibernate4.jar and spring-orm.jar.

It sounds liken you are missing hibernate dependency in your project set up:

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.hibernate.cache.CacheProvider

Try downloading hibernate-core.jar and add to your project classpath.

If you use Maven, simply add the following dependency to your project's pom.xml:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
  <artifactId>hibernate-core</artifactId>
  <version>${hibernate.version}</version>
</dependency>

Hope that helps.

I have added this dependency using version 4.2.7, but there is no CacheProvider class in there.

You are injecting HibernateTransactionManager into DAO class instead of HibernateTemplate. Please check your configuration your file.

This solution worked for me too:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
    <artifactId>hibernate-entitymanager</artifactId>
    <version>3.6.10.Final</version>
</dependency>

In my case, I already had the hibernate-entitymanager dependency, but was attempting to use the latest version of hibernate - 4.3.1.Final. Not sure why the downgrade was necessary here, but chances are the "Simple Spring JPA Utility Project" I was basing off in STS 3.5.0.M2 of is also a little dated?

You have to change in spring configuration file.
change :

HibernateTemplate class as "org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.HibernateTemplate"
,and change:

LocalSessionFactoryBean bean as "org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.LocalSessionFactoryBean"

it will work.

This might be because you are using "org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.LocalSessionFactoryBean" instead of "org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.LocalSessionFactoryBean" for "sessionFactory" in spring configuration file.

OP is using org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.LocalSessionFactoryBean

Niraj Jha Over a year ago

In my case, LocalSessionFactoryBean of hibernate3 picked up further I changed the dependency to use 4 and it got resolved.

Well, your case is not what this question covers. You can ask your own question and answer it, or you can check if another question for your case already exists. OP already states in the question that they switched from 3 to 4. Your answer doesn't answer OPs question.

If you're using Maven, try putting this in your POM file:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
    <artifactId>hibernate-entitymanager</artifactId>
    <version>3.6.10.Final</version>
</dependency>

That worked for me.
