I am developing Spring MVC Hibernate Integration example. In this example I'm using Spring 4.1.9.RELEASE and Hibernate 5.1.0.Final. If I downgrade Hibernate version to 4.3.5.Final then it works. Now inorder to use hibernate 5 what else configuration do I need to change. Please refer more details below.

Please find below the exception I see

The configuration which I used are:

<!-- Hibernate 4 SessionFactory Bean definition -->
    <beans:bean id="hibernate4AnnotatedSessionFactory" class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.LocalSessionFactoryBean">

        <!-- DataSource -->
        <beans:property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />

        <!-- Annotated Class -->
        <beans:property name="annotatedClasses">
            <beans:list>
                <beans:value>com.journaldev.spring.model.Person</beans:value>
            </beans:list>
        </beans:property>

        <!-- Hibernate Properties -->
        <beans:property name="hibernateProperties">
            <beans:props>
                <beans:prop key="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto">${hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto}</beans:prop>
                <beans:prop key="hibernate.dialect">${hibernate.dialect}</beans:prop>
                <beans:prop key="hibernate.show_sql">${hibernate.show_sql}</beans:prop>
            </beans:props>
        </beans:property>
    </beans:bean>

And other configurations are:

<beans:bean id="transactionManager" class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.HibernateTransactionManager">
        <beans:property name="sessionFactory" ref="hibernate4AnnotatedSessionFactory" />
    </beans:bean>

It looks to me that this package org.springframework.orm. don't have configurations for the hibernate 5 yet, please guide what configurations I need to change in order to use hibernate 5?

Change the definition of your transaction manager to:

<bean id="transactionManager"
        class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate5.HibernateTransactionManager">
    <property name="sessionFactory" ref="hibernate5AnnotatedSessionFactory"/>
</bean>

And upgrade your spring framework to 4.2.x
