Depending on our setup, Hibernate is typically started by building a SessionFactory. Unless you're using some kind of Spring / JPA integration, this does not automatically happen when you start tomcat.

You can use the following listener to initialize and close Hibernate on deployment and undeployment.

public class HibernateListener implements ServletContextListener {

    public void contextInitialized(ServletContextEvent event) {
        HibernateUtil.getSessionFactory(); // Just call the static initializer of that class    
    }

    public void contextDestroyed(ServletContextEvent event) {
        HibernateUtil.getSessionFactory().close(); // Free all resources
    }
}

You'll need to have this class in your classpath, along with the hibernate jars (+ its dependencies_ and your database driver.

You'll also need to configure the listener in your web.xml

<listener>
    <listener-class>org.mypackage.HibernateListener</listener-class>
</listener>

If there are issues with your hibernate.cfg.xml file, you should see them at startup.
