Failed to execute hibernate query

Question

I have an entity class as defined below:

@Entity
@Table(name="user")
public class User implements Serializable{

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    private int id;

    @NotNull
    @Column(name="email",nullable=false)
    @Size(min=5,max=15,message="Min 5 and Max 15")
    private String email;

    @NotNull
    @Column(name="password",nullable=false)
    @Size(min=5,max=15,message="Min 5 and Max 15")
    private String password;

    public int getId() {
        return id;
    }
    public void setId(int id) {
        this.id = id;
    }
    public String getEmail() {
        return email;
    }
    public void setEmail(String email) {
        this.email = email;
    }
    public String getPassword() {
        return password;
    }
    public void setPassword(String password) {
        this.password = password;
    }
}

I am creating an sql query using HQL as follows:

Query query = getSession().createSQLQuery("FROM User u where u.email = :email");
query.setString("email", username);
query.list();

Getting following exceptions when calling query.list()

What could be the possible problem ?

Answer 1

Sql query need to have the whole sql syntax and the query that you are using is HQL query

your sql query should be like

you can do getSession().createQuery("FROM User u where u.email = :email"); or select * from <tableName> alias where email = ?
