Postgresql – Hibernate + PostgreSQL : relation does not exist – SQL Error: 0, SQLState: 42P01

eclipsehibernatepostgresql

I am having some problems trying to work with PostgreSQL and Hibernate, more specifically, the issue mentioned in the title. I've been searching the net for a few hours now but none of the found solutions worked for me.

I am using Eclipse Java EE IDE for Web Developers. Build id: 20090920-1017 with HibernateTools, Hibernate 3, PostgreSQL 8.4.3 on Ubuntu 9.10.

Here are the relevant files:

Message.class

package hello;

        public class Message {
         private Long id;
         private String text;

         public Message() {
         }

         public Long getId() {
          return id;
         }

         public void setId(Long id) {
          this.id = id;
         }

         public String getText() {
          return text;
         }

         public void setText(String text) {
          this.text = text;
         }
        }

Message.hbm.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>

   <property name="text" column="messagetext"/>
   </class>
</hibernate-mapping>

hibernate.cfg.xml

Main

package hello;

import org.hibernate.Session;
import org.hibernate.SessionFactory;
import org.hibernate.Transaction;
import org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration;

public class App {

 public static void main(String[] args) {
  SessionFactory sessionFactory = new Configuration().configure()
    .buildSessionFactory();

  Message message = new Message();
  message.setText("Hello Cruel World");
  message.setId(2L);

  Session session = null;
  Transaction transaction = null;
  try {
   session = sessionFactory.openSession();
   transaction = session.beginTransaction();
   session.save(message);
  } catch (Exception e) {
   System.out.println("Exception attemtping to Add message: "
     + e.getMessage());

  } finally {
   if (session != null && session.isOpen()) {
    if (transaction != null)
     transaction.commit();
    session.flush();
    session.close();
   }

  }
 }
}

Table structure:

foo=# \d messages
 Table "public.messages"
   Column    |  Type   | Modifiers 
-------------+---------+-----------
 id          | integer | 
 messagetext | text    |

PostgreSQL log file

2010-04-28 23:13:55 EEST LOG:  execute S_1: BEGIN
2010-04-28 23:13:55 EEST ERROR:  relation "public.messages" does not exist at character 13
2010-04-28 23:13:55 EEST STATEMENT:  insert into public.messages (messagetext, id) values ($1, $2)
2010-04-28 23:13:55 EEST LOG:  unexpected EOF on client connection

If I copy/paste the query into the postgre command line and put the values in and ; after it, it works.

Everything is lowercase, so I don't think that it's that issue.

If I switch to MySQL, the same code same project (I only change driver,URL, authentication), it works.

In Eclipse Datasource Explorer, I can ping the DB and it succeeds. Weird thing is that I can't see the tables from there either. It expands the public schema but it doesn't expand the tables. Could it be some permission issue?

Thanks!

I've just solved the same / similar problem by specifying the schema.

@Entity
@Table(name = "mytable", schema="myschema")
public class MyTable implements Serializable {
    ...
