[FIXED] ORA-00942 SQLException with Hibernate (Unable to find a table)

Issue

I'm trying to run a simple Hibernate application, but I get this error:

org.hibernate.exception.SQLGrammarException: could not execute query
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist

My Entity:

package beans;

import javax.persistence.*;

@Entity
public class Idt {
    @Id
    private int id;
    @Column(name="name")
    private String name;

    public Idt(){
    }

    public int getId() {
        return id;
    }

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

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }
}

My table is called IDT in the Hr user.

CREATE TABLE "HR"."IDT"
  (
    "ID"   NUMBER NOT NULL ENABLE,
    "NAME" VARCHAR2(20 BYTE),
    CONSTRAINT "IDT_PK" PRIMARY KEY ("ID") USING INDEX PCTFREE 10 INITRANS 2 MAXTRANS 255 STORAGE(INITIAL 65536 NEXT 1048576 MINEXTENTS 1 MAXEXTENTS 2147483645 PCTINCREASE 0 FREELISTS 1 FREELIST GROUPS 1 BUFFER_POOL DEFAULT) TABLESPACE "USERS" ENABLE
  )
  PCTFREE 10 PCTUSED 40 INITRANS 1 MAXTRANS 255 NOCOMPRESS LOGGING STORAGE

    INITIAL 65536 NEXT 1048576 MINEXTENTS 1 MAXEXTENTS 2147483645 PCTINCREASE 0 FREELISTS 1 FREELIST GROUPS 1 BUFFER_POOL DEFAULT
  )
  TABLESPACE "USERS" ;

Hibernate.cfg.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC
          "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD 3.0//EN"
          "http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">

            <hibernate-configuration>

                <session-factory>

                    <!-- Database connection settings -->
                    <property name="connection.driver_class">oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver</property>
                    <property name="connection.url">jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521/xe</property>
                    <property name="connection.username">SYSTEM</property>
                    <property name="connection.password">19141914</property>

                    <!-- SQL dialect -->
                    <property name="dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.OracleDialect</property>

                    <!-- Echo all executed SQL to stdout -->
                    <property name="show_sql">true</property>

                    <property name="current_session_context_class">thread</property>

                    <mapping class="beans.Idt"/>



                </session-factory>

            </hibernate-configuration>     

I guess that it is something with the mapping of the entity because of the SQLException:

java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist

Solution

Perhaps you need to specify the schema, or something like that:

@Entity 
@Table(schema = "HR")
public class Idt { ... }

Also make sure that account used by Hibernate (SYSTEM) has rights to access that table.
