Hibernate project reference org.hibernate.HibernateException: Unable to get the default Bean Validation factory

Question

I am new to Hibernate and Restful.

I have sample java project( Hibernate java project) in my RAD. It's working and able to run my Hibernate query's

I have another web project (Restful sample web project), It's working able to run my sample application get and post.

I want to integrate Hibernate Java project in my Web project. My idea is I want publish my sample hibernate in Restful service. My restful get service call my hibernate module and run the query's and give result to end user.

I have given Hibernate java project as reference in web project, included all jar files as user library, added deployment assembly Hibernate project and user library. I have crated my HibernateUtlity class object trying invoke my getSession method. ITs giving strange exception.

Can you please help me fix this issue.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks you guys are the help. I found the solution for this problem. Issue is the my Hibernate project is not added to my Web project maven build. Once I added Hibernate project as dependency to my Web project. After successful deployment. Its working. Still I don't have any idea Why its throwing Bean Validation exception.
