I am using JBoss IDE 1.6.0 GA and JBoss 4.0.2 GA and Oracle 10g. Using the new connection wizard, I generated this hibernat.cfg.xml file: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD 3.0//EN" "http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd"> <hibernate-configuration> <session-factory> oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver password jdbc:oracle:thin:@sampr01.world jwestra SAM_DATA org.hibernate.dialect.Oracle9Dialect </session-factory> </hibernate-configuration> and then created the Hibernate Configuration for the perspective. Clicking on the Database icon produces the following error: Problem while reading database schema And the following warning: WARN Worker-33 org.hibernate.cfg.SettingsFactory - Could not obtain connection metadata Full stack trace of the exceptions that occur: !ENTRY org.hibernate.eclipse 2 30000 2006-11-17 16:19:15.459 !MESSAGE WARN Worker-33 org.hibernate.cfg.SettingsFactory - Could not

need. I believe that the warning is at the root of the problem, but I do not know how to remove it. What I do know is that the Oracle driver is not receiving properly the information it needs resulting its exception. What is missing? Any and all help would be appreciated Dave View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3987087#...
