I am using Net Beans IDE , When i start to deploy my web project it shows me at the console output an error says:

failed.org.hibernate.MappingException: Could not determine type for: String, for columns: [org.hibernate.mapping.Column(db col name)

From the message it can not convert types ; I tried to check the types in my files .hbm and .java but no luck so far .

The property for which this error is being thrown is defined as

<property name="exemptionOwnerName1" type="String">

The reason is , hibernate tries to convert the types but one of them was in compatible

my code was string like this

<property name="exemptionOwnerName1" type="String">

and it should by with small letter s

 <property name="exemptionOwnerName1" type="string">

seems its case sensitive and in hbm it should be string and in java class String

Property documentation for type
