Hibernate error – QuerySyntaxException: users is not mapped [from users]

I’m trying to get a list of all the users from “users” table and I get the following error:

org.hibernate.hql.internal.ast.QuerySyntaxException: users is not mapped [from users]
org.hibernate.hql.internal.ast.util.SessionFactoryHelper.requireClassPersister(SessionFactoryHelper.java:180)
org.hibernate.hql.internal.ast.tree.FromElementFactory.addFromElement(FromElementFactory.java:110)
org.hibernate.hql.internal.ast.tree.FromClause.addFromElement(FromClause.java:93)

This is the code I wrote to add/get users:

public List<User> getUsers() {
    Session session = HibernateUtil.getSessionFactory().getCurrentSession();
    session.beginTransaction();
    List<User> result = (List<User>) session.createQuery("from users").list();
    session.getTransaction().commit();
    return result;
}

public void addUser(User user) {
    Session session = HibernateUtil.getSessionFactory().getCurrentSession();
    session.beginTransaction();
    session.save(user);
    session.getTransaction().commit();
}

public void addUser(List<User> users) {
    Session session = HibernateUtil.getSessionFactory().getCurrentSession();
    session.beginTransaction();
    for (User user : users) {
        session.save(user);
    }
    session.getTransaction().commit();
}

Adding users works, but when I use the getUsers function I get these error.

This is my hibernate config file:

<hibernate-configuration>
<session-factory>
    <property name="connection.url">jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test</property>
    <property name="connection.username">root</property>
    <property name="connection.password">root</property>
    <property name="connection.driver_class">com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</property>
    <property name="hibernate.default_schema">test</property>
    <property name="dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQL5Dialect</property>

    <property name="show_sql">true</property>

    <property name="format_sql">true</property>
    <property name="hbm2ddl.auto">create-drop</property>

    <!-- JDBC connection pool (use the built-in) -->
    <property name="connection.pool_size">1</property>
    <property name="current_session_context_class">thread</property>

    <!-- Mapping files will go here.... -->

    <mapping class="model.Company" />
    <mapping class="model.Conference" />
    <mapping class="model.ConferencesParticipants" />
    <mapping class="model.ConferenceParticipantStatus" />
    <mapping class="model.ConferencesUsers" />
    <mapping class="model.Location" />
    <mapping class="model.User" />

</session-factory>

and this is my User class:

@Entity
@Table( name = "Users" )
public class User implements Serializable{

    private long userID;
    private int pasportID;
    private Company company; 
    private String name;
    private String email;
    private String phone1;
    private String phone2;
    private String password; //may be null/empty , will be kept hashed
    private boolean isAdmin;
    private Date lastLogin;

    User() {} //not public on purpose!

    public User(int countryID, Company company, String name, String email,
            String phone1, String phone2, String password, boolean isAdmin) {
        this.pasportID = countryID;
        this.company = company;
        this.name = name;
        this.email = email;
        this.phone1 = phone1;
        this.phone2 = phone2;
        this.password = password;
        this.isAdmin = isAdmin;
    }

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(generator="increment")
    @GenericGenerator(name="increment", strategy = "increment")
    public long getUserID() {
        return userID;
    }
    public void setUserID(long userID) {
        this.userID = userID;
    }
    ...    
}

Any idea why I get this error?

Answer

In the HQL , you should use the java class name and property name of the mapped @Entity instead of the actual table name and column name , so the HQL should be :

List<User> result = session.createQuery("from User", User.class).getResultList();

Update : To be more precise , you should use the entity name configured in @Entity to refer to the “table” , which default to unqualified name of the mapped java class if you do not set it explicitly.

(P.S. It is @javax.persistence.Entity but not @org.hibernate.annotations.Entity)
