Error Fetching Children of Database - Hibernate Tools - org.slf4j.spi.LocationAwareLogger.log

Well to be honest I have spent all my Saturday reading and trying to resolve this, but nothing has worked for me.

I tried all possible solutions regarding the commons-loggins and slf4j dependencies versions, but it was impossible to solve it. So if anyone of you can support me I will give you very much thanks!

I have this pom and I need to create a hibernate console after creating a hibernate config file from Hibernate Tools, but when I finish to do this it appears:

An internal error occurred during: "Fetching children of Database". org.slf4j.spi.LocationAwareLogger.log(Lorg/slf4j/Marker;Ljava/lang/String;ILjava/lang/String;[Ljava/lang/Object;Ljava/lang/Throwable;)V

here is my current pom:

You are having different versions of SLF4J in your classpath. You may try these:

  • Your hibernate tools plugin (< eclipse_directory >/plugins/) and your project maven repository (< user_directory >/.m2/repository/org/slf4j) have different SLF4J jar version. Maintain same version in both of these folders (read classpath). Keep the latest one in both of these and delete the older one. It's a dirty hack but an acceptable way to keep jar versions in-sync.

  • Another (better) way, keep your data access objects in a separate project. Create a simple maven POJO project and automate code generation through hibernate tools. Import this project into the project where you're maintaining business logic. This is a standard design in big projects and, the good part, you don't have to suffer the version conflict.
