Spring MVC + Hibernate using STS

Question

I am trying to configure a Spring MVC Template project using STS and then add to it all the dependencies needed to use Hibernate for persistance data.

I created a MVC Template project, but I don't know which dependencies I should add. To see the libraries needed I created an Hibernate Template project and I tried to add the dependencies it declares to the MVC project's pom.xml. It can't find most of the artifacts. How can I add those artifacts to maven's dependencies?

I looked over the internet to find something useful, but I could't solve my problem. Can someone help me?

Thanks

It's kind of weird that you found nothing on Internet about a spring project with hibernate since it is one of most used build for java Web application.

Here a exemple of a pom.xml that should work for a spring-mvc / hibernate project :

In this example, I use the postgres connector, you need to change that dependency if you use a other database :

<!-- Postgres Connector -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>postgresql</groupId>
    <artifactId>postgresql</artifactId>
    <version>9.1-901.jdbc4</version>
</dependency>
