An error (java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException) when using Hibernate as a data adapter

[oliverk_1]

Hi All,

I am having a problem when trying to use the Hibernate data adapter (which works in other settings). This is the error when I test the connection:

The stated problem is that there is a class not found: com.pam.diapro2.hibernate.pojo.Allocation

The thing is, that class DOES exist and I can access it by other means. How should I proceed?

If it helps any, I have copied all relevant .jars into the Jaspersoft/.../lib/ext folder and I have unpacked the .jar that contains the hibernate config (which is also where the missing class is found).
