The exception seems to mislead. Everytime i call this function | @SuppressWarnings("unchecked") | public List<E> findAll() { | List<E> list; | list = getSession().createCriteria(entityClass).list(); | return list; | } | the program raises exceptions but i also get an org.hibernate.exception.GenericJDBCException: Cannot open connection when this function is called. The session is a Hibernate session. I am able to login (which does a databasequery) i am able to use HibernateEntityQuerys but the above code will fail. Chanching the seam librarys back to 1.1.6 (making only security related changes loggedIn vs success and so on) all works fine.
