Hibernate exception while saving my object

Question

Instead of saving my object, it launch an issue when it reach to save method.

You can see in the console like:

log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (org.jboss.logging).
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.
log4j:WARN See http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/faq.html#noconfig for more info.
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
    at com.liveSpreaker.presentation.HibernateTest.<init>(HibernateTest.java:58)
    at com.liveSpreaker.presentation.HibernateTest.main(HibernateTest.java:65)

my bean like:

package com.live.beans;

public class User {

    private int id;
    private String Name;
    private String email;
    private String password;

    public int getId() {
        return id;
    }

    public void setId(int id) {
        this.id = id;
    }

    public String getName() {
        return Name;
    }

    public void setName(String name) {
        Name = name;
    }

    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;
    }

    public User(int id, String name, String email, String password) {
        super();
        this.id = id;
        Name = name;
        this.email = email;
        this.password = password;
    }

    public User(String name, String email, String password) {
        super();
        Name = name;
        this.email = email;
        this.password = password;
    }


    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return "User [id=" + id + ", Name=" + Name + ", email=" + email
                + ", password=" + password + "]";
    }

}

I have an exception when I reach at this line which is in HibernateTest.java class (I mean while debuging):

session.save(p);

Although I use User p = new User(1,"Ali", "[email protected]", "password"); I got the same issue in session.save(p);.

I am using MySQL, and I have created database called ment and a table user with four columns (id,name,email,password).

The issue here likely isn't with your Hibernate test configuration; it looks like something is invoking Log4j before it's been set up. Either you didn't set it up yourself earlier, or the library you're using has a call to initialize it that wasn't made. — Shotgun Ninja

@ShotgunNinja : thanks so much but I don't think so because I had issue and I fixed it and I remember it always invoking Log4j. I think my problem not belong to Log4j — user5059264

Your session variable (the one you use in the constructor for HibernateTest) hasn't been initialized. Therefore, it is still null and that causes session.save(p); to throw a NPE.

Change the code in openSession() to

private void openSession(){
    SessionFactory sessionFactory = createSessionFactory();
    session = sessionFactory.openSession();
    session.beginTransaction();
}

Ie, open the new session on your field instead of on a private variable in the scope of that method that disappears after the method has been run.
