Use import javax persistence Entity  Instead of import org hibernate annotations Entity

My issue was resolved After adding sessionFactory setPackagesToScan  new String      com springhibernate model      Tested this Functionality in spring boot latest version 2 1 2   Full Method     Bean  name  sessionFactoryConfig       public LocalSessionFactoryBean sessionFactoryConfig              LocalSessionFactoryBean sessionFactory   new LocalSessionFactoryBean             sessionFactory setDataSource dataSourceConfig             sessionFactory setPackagesToScan                  new String      com springhibernate model               sessionFactory setHibernateProperties hibernatePropertiesConfig              return sessionFactory

Use below line of code in the case of Spring Boot Application  Add in Spring Boot Main Class  EntityScan basePackageClasses YourClassName class

User · Answer

you should add all the entity files in the  addAnnotatedClass Class  method  if the class needs to be auto discovered   use this link  it might help    http   docs jboss org hibernate stable core api org hibernate cfg AnnotationConfiguration html

User · Answer

use below line of code in the case of spring boot applications     EntityScan basePackageClasses YourClassName class

User · Answer

In case if you get this exception in SpringBoot application even though the entities are annotated with Entity annotation  it might be due to the spring not aware of where to scan for entities  To explicitly specify the package  add below   SpringBootApplication  EntityScan   model package name    public class SpringBootApp         note  If you model classes resides in the same or sub packages of SpringBootApplication annotated class  no need to explicitly declare the EntityScan  by default it will scan

User · Answer

You can enable entity scan by adding below annotation on Application  java  EntityScan basePackageClasses YourEntityClassName class   Or you can set the packageToScan in your session factory  sessionFactory setPackagesToScan    com all entity

User · Answer

You should call  addAnnotatedClass Message class  on your AnnotationConfiguration   If you want your entities to be auto-discovered  use EntityManager  JPA    Reference   Update  it appears you have listed the class in hibernate cfg xml  So auto-discovery is not necessary  Btw  try javax persistence Entity

User · Answer

You entity is not correctly annotated  you must use the  javax persistence Entity annotation  You can use the Hibernate extension  org hibernate annotations Entity to go beyond what JPA has to offer but the Hibernate annotation is not a replacement  it s a complement   So change your code into   import javax persistence Entity  import javax persistence GeneratedValue  import javax persistence Id  import javax persistence Table    Entity public class Message                 References   Hibernate Annotations Reference Guide   2 4  Hibernate Annotation Extensions

I encountered the same problem when I switched to AnnotationSessionFactoryBean  I was using entity hbm xml before   I found that My class was missing following annotation which resolved the issue in my case    Entity  Table name    MyTestEntity    XmlRootElement
