Hibernate Framework classes look for an HibernateSession with name "session" and that's a HttpSession
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBSEAM-1708
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1708
             Project: JBoss Seam
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Framework
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0.BETA1
         Environment: Hibernate 3, Tomcat 6.0.13, Java 6, Windows XP
            Reporter: Ralph Schaer


The Hibernate framework classes (HibernateEntityHome, HibernateEntityQuery) looking for a HibernateSession in the context with name "session". The problem is that "session" is already bound to a HttpSession. 
The result is that the program throws this exception 
Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: org.apache.catalina.session.StandardSessionFacade cannot be cast to org.hibernate.Session at org.jboss.seam.transaction.HibernateTransaction.initSession(HibernateTransaction.java:68)


As a workaround I override the getPersistenceContext() in every Home and Query class
  @Override
  protected String getPersistenceContextName() {
    return "hibernateSession";
  }

components.xml looks like this.
  <persistence:hibernate-session-factory name="hibernateSessionFactory"  />
  <persistence:managed-hibernate-session name="hibernateSession" auto-create="true"   
                                         session-factory="#{hibernateSessionFactory}" />

  <transaction:hibernate-transaction session="#{hibernateSession}" />
