Issue with Spring Hibernate PostgreSQL configuration - spring

Question

I am getting various issues with configuration of spring hibernate and postgresql. I try to resolve one issue and i get some different issue.
I am using spring 3.1.0 release version and hibernate 4.1.4.Final
I am getting error BeanFactory not initialized or already closed - call 'refresh' before accessing beans via the ApplicationContext
and my web.xml is
<web-app id="WebApp_ID" version="2.4"
xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd">
<servlet>
<servlet-name>dispatcher</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>dispatcher</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.htm</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<context-param>
<param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/dispatcher-servlet.xml</param-value>
</context-param>
<listener>
<listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener-class>
</listener>
</web-app>
And my dispatcher-servlet is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:aop="http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop"

<property name="url" value="jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/TestUserDB" />
<property name="username" value="postgres" />
<property name="password" value="root123" />
</bean>
<bean id="viewResolver"
class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver">
<property name="prefix">
<value>/WEB-INF/pages/</value>
</property>
<property name="suffix">
<value>.jsp</value>
</property>
</bean>
<bean id="sessionFactory"
class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.annotation.AnnotationSessionFactoryBean">
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
<property name="configLocation" value="classpath:hibernate.cfg.xml" />
<!-- Scan packages for annotated entities -->
<property name="packagesToScan" value="com.max.ade.common.model" />
</bean>
<!-- Transaction support beans -->
<bean id="transactionManager"
class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.HibernateTransactionManager">
<property name="sessionFactory" ref="sessionFactory" />
</bean>
<tx:annotation-driven transaction-manager="transactionManager"></tx:annotation- driven>
</beans>
And after issue resolving, above is my file structure for dispatcher-servlet.xml.
Are configuration things work differently with hibernate 3.6.4 and hibernate 4.1.4 beside issue mentioned (BeanFactory not initialized or already closed - call 'refresh' before accessing beans via the ApplicationContext)
Any concrete pointer will be great help.
Thanks.

Answer 1

It seems like you are mixing hibernate 3 and hibernate 4,
try to change this
class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.HibernateTransactionManager">
to this
class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.HibernateTransactionManager">
