The error is pretty explicit, at some point in the file hibernate.cfg.xml, you made a mistake closing one XML tag, possibly a > character is missing (perhaps in the element hibernate-configuration?). Check the file with a good text editor, it'll help you find where the problem is.

I think you forgot to close the '>' properly it's just a compilation error

You may have not mentioned the doctype in the hibernate.cfg.xml

<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD 3.0//EN" "http://www.hibernate.org/dtd/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd"> <hibernate-configuration>

Use the above syntax, it should work.
