Spring: Error creating bean with name 'sessionFactory' - spring

Question

I am new to spring and keep getting the following errors and after hours I just cant find the problem. Any help would be appreciated!
My ApplicationContext.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" xmlns:aop="http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop" xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context" xmlns:p="http://www.springframework.org/schema/p" xmlns:tx="http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/context http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx/spring-tx.xsd">

My MessagesEntity.java:
package models.entities;
import javax.persistence.*;
import java.util.Date;
#Entity
#Table(name = "usermessages", schema = "messages", catalog = "`")
public class MessagesEntity {
#Id
#GeneratedValue(strategy= GenerationType.AUTO)
#Column(name = "id")
private long id;
#Column(name = "message")
private String message;
#Column(name = "username")
private String username;
#Column(name = "senttime")
private Date sentTime;
public void setMessage(String message) {
this.message = message;
}
public String getMessage() {
return message;
}
public String getUsername() {
return username;
}
public void setUsername(String username) {
this.username = username;
}
public Date getSentTime() {
return sentTime;
}
public void setSentTime(Date time) {
this.sentTime = time;
}
#Override
public boolean equals(Object o) {
if (this == o) return true;
if (o == null || getClass() != o.getClass()) return false;
MessagesEntity that = (MessagesEntity) o;
if (message != null ? !message.equals(that.message) : that.message != null)
return false;
if (username != null ? !username.equals(that.username) : that.username != null)
return false;
if (sentTime != null ? !sentTime.equals(that.sentTime) : that.sentTime!= null)
return false;
return true;
}
#Override
public int hashCode() {
int result = message != null ? message.hashCode() : 0;
result = 31 * result + (username != null ? username.hashCode() : 0);
result = 31 * result + (sentTime != null ? sentTime.hashCode() : 0);
return result;
}
}

I also created the following classes:
MessageRepositoryImpl.java
import models.entities.MessagesEntity;
import org.hibernate.SessionFactory;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Repository;
import repositories.MessageRepository;
#Repository
public class MessageRepositoryImpl implements MessageRepository {
#Autowired
private SessionFactory sessionFactory;
#Override
public MessagesEntity getById(long id) {
return (MessagesEntity) sessionFactory.getCurrentSession().get(MessagesEntity.class, id);
}
}
MessageServiceImpl.java
import models.entities.MessagesEntity;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Service;
import org.springframework.transaction.annotation.Transactional;
import repositories.MessageRepository;
import services.MessageService;
#Service
public class MessageServiceImpl implements MessageService {
#Autowired
private MessageRepository messageRepo;
#Transactional
public MessagesEntity get(long id) {
return this.messageRepo.getById(id);
}
}
Any ideas?

Answer 1

seems you have given catalog = "`" incorrectly in MessagesEntity . Catalogs are "namespaces" that you define on the server side of the database.
