org.hibernate.AnnotationException: No identifier specified for entity: login.Users

Question

I am getting an error while reuest goes to servlet ,I try alot for resolved this but not get proper solution.

Registration.java (Servlet class file)

package login;

import java.io.IOException;

import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.annotation.WebServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
import org.hibernate.Session;
import org.hibernate.SessionFactory;
import org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration;
import org.hibernate.SessionFactory;

@WebServlet("/Registration")
public class Registration extends HttpServlet {
   private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;


public Registration() {
    super();
 }


protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {

     String username =  request.getParameter("username");
     String password =  request.getParameter("password");
     String name =  request.getParameter("name");

     Users u = new Users();
     u.setUsername(username);
     u.setPassword(password);
     u.setName(name);

     String uname = u.getUsername();
     System.out.println(uname);
     SessionFactory sessionFactory = new                 Configuration().configure().buildSessionFactory();
     Session session = sessionFactory.openSession();
        session.beginTransaction();
        session.save(u);
        session.getTransaction().commit();
        session.close();
        sessionFactory.close();

}

}

Users.java this class is used to stored the user information in "Users" table

package login;
import javax.persistence.Entity;
import javax.persistence.Table;
@Entity
@Table(name="Users")
public class Users {
private String username;
private String password;
private String name;
public String getUsername() {
    return username;
}
public void setUsername(String username) {
    this.username = username;
}
public String getPassword() {
    return password;
}
public void setPassword(String password) {
    this.password = password;
}
public String getName() {
    return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
    this.name = name;
}   
}

hibernate.cfg.xml

Which hibernate version are you using? Also, please post your `USERS` table in DB — javaguest, Oct 30 '15 at 18:10
Add an `@Id` annotation to the intended primary key field of the `Users` entity — Reimeus, Oct 30 '15 at 18:11

You are missing a field that serves as identifier for an entity. Something like this:

    @Id 
    @GeneratedValue
    private long id;

Also do not forget a getter for this field.

Hope this helps.

Hibernate can access private attributes, it doesnt need a getter: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1113359/how-can-hibernate-access-a-private-field – javaguest Oct 30 '15 at 18:18
@javaguest you are correct but getId() is useful when one operates DTO. Though, in this case it is irrelevant. – Boris Oct 30 '15 at 18:26

You also have to use the right import.

org.springframework.data.annotation.Id => Did not work

javax.persistence.Id => Worked

You didn't specify a primary key:

@Id 
@GeneratedValue
@Column(name = "id")
private int id;

You need to find out which column is unique in your table and assign it as an ID
