org.hibernate.internal.util.config.ConfigurationException: Could not locate cfg.xml resource [/HibernateTest/src/hibernate.cfg.xml]

I am trying to connect to Postgresql9.1 in ubuntu with pgadmin3. My Pgadmin3 GUI tool does not give any option to create tables by right clicking the database, but it is available in some videos I saw. Therefore, I used terminal to create the database and it showed up in pgadmin3.

my file structure

My Userdetails file

package org.nitish.hiber;

import javax.persistence.Entity;
import javax.persistence.Id;

@Entity
public class UserDetails {
    @Id
    private int userId;
    private String userName;
    public int getUserId() {
        return userId;
    }
    public void setUserId(int userId) {
        this.userId = userId;
    }
    public String getUserName() {
        return userName;
    }
    public void setUserName(String userName) {
        this.userName = userName;
    }
}

My HibernateCaller file

package org.nitish.caller;

import org.hibernate.HibernateException;
import org.hibernate.Session;
import org.hibernate.SessionFactory;
import org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration;
import org.nitish.hiber.UserDetails;

public class HibernateTest {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        UserDetails user = new UserDetails();
        user.setUserId(1);
        user.setUserName("First User");
        try {
            SessionFactory sessionFactory = new Configuration().configure("/HibernateTest/src/hibernate.cfg.xml").buildSessionFactory();
            Session session = sessionFactory.openSession();
            session.beginTransaction();
            session.save(user);
            session.getTransaction().commit();

        } catch(HibernateException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

}

I am getting following error

After making few changes (could not use session.close() in finally block I think that should not cause this error)

Answer

If you have your hibernate.cfg.xml in the root of the source folder, just do

SessionFactory sessionFactory = new Configuration().configure().buildSessionFactory();

If it is in the package, for an example in the org.nitish.caller, specify path by this way

 SessionFactory sessionFactory = new Configuration()
    .configure("/org/nitish/caller/hibernate.cfg.xml").buildSessionFactory();

You need to close the session (in the finally block). Don’t forget to add rollback code.

Please, add @Table annotation to the UserDetails.

Update

The reason of the error that Hibernate can’t find org.postgresql.Driver class. It resides in postgresql jar. You have that jar at your image, but may be you don’t add it to the classpath. Refer How to Add JARs to Project Build Paths in Eclipse (Java).

To close a session in the finally block you need to have session variable outside the try block.

    Session session = sessionFactory.openSession();

    try{

    } finally {
        session.close();
   }
