Unable to instantiate default tuplizer [org.hibernate.tuple.entity.PojoEntityTuplizer]

I am developing an application with Hibernate and I get an Exception when I connect with database. The exception is:

Unable to instantiate default tuplizer [org.hibernate.tuple.entity.PojoEntityTuplizer]

My mapping file is:

<hibernate-mapping>
<class name="com.cartif.database.SetPoint" table="SetPoint">
    <id name="iSetPointId" column="setpointid" type="java.lang.Integer">
        <generator class="sequence">
            <param name="sequence">s_setpoint</param>
        </generator>
    </id>
    <property column="sensorType" generated="never" lazy="false" name="sSensortype" type="java.lang.String"/>
    <property column="value" generated="never" lazy="false" name="dValue" type="java.lang.Double"/>
    <property column="relationship" generated="never" lazy="false" name="sRelation" type="java.lang.String"/>
    <property column="deviceid" generated="never" lazy="false" name="iDeviceId" type="java.lang.Integer"/>
</class>
</hibernate-mapping>

And the class with getters/setters which are not included:

public class SetPoint {
    private int iSetPointId;
    private String sSensorType;
    private double dValue;
    private String sRelationship;
    private int iDeviceId;
}

I have javassist.jar included into classpath. I do not know what is the problem. Someone would help me please.

Thanks!


I found when the error is launched. If I include properties in mapping file exception is thrown. If I only declare id of table, the exception is not thrown. What is the possible cause?

I was also facing the same issue.

Added the same dependency and it worked (like this):

<dependency>
    <groupId>javassist</groupId>
    <artifactId>javassist</artifactId>
    <version>3.12.1.GA</version>
</dependency> 

When I ran into this error the fix was simple. I was simply missing a setter for a property. Make sure you define matching getters / setters for all your properties.


I know its an old question and lots of answers are helpful but in my case, I faced with the same error unluckily the reason was different. (Spring boot version 2.0.5.RELEASE) If you are using

IntelliJ idea 2018.1.5 or above and you set JDK version as JDK 11

the same exception occurred. After updating the

JDK version as 8

the error is gone.


I am using spring 3.0 and Hibernate 3.6 in my project. I ran into the same error just now. Googling this error message brought me to this page.

Funtik's comment on Jan 17 '12 at 8:49 helped me resolve the issue-

"This tells me that javassist cannot be accessed. How do you include this library into the project?"

So, I included java assist in my maven pom file as below:

<dependency>
    <groupId>javassist</groupId>
    <artifactId>javassist</artifactId>
    <version>3.12.1.GA</version>
</dependency>

This resolved the issue for me. Thanks Funtik.
