NHibernate Oracle Connection? - nhibernate

I am setting up an Oracle connection for NHibernate for the first time. I have copied the Oracle.DataAccess.dll file into my bin folder. No matter what I try, I keep getting the same error:
Could not load type >NHibernate.Driver.OracleDataClientDriver. Possible cause: no assembly name specified.
I am using the following configuration:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<hibernate-configuration xmlns="urn:nhibernate-configuration-2.2">
<session-factory name="DefaultSessionFactory">
<property name="connection.provider">NHibernate.Connection.DriverConnectionProvider</property>
<property name="dialect">NHibernate.Dialect.Oracle9Dialect</property>
<property name="connection.driver_class">>NHibernate.Driver.OracleDataClientDriver</property>
<property name="connection.connection_string">Data Source=DB;User ID=USERPassword=****;</property>
<property name="show_sql">true</property>
<mapping assembly="NHibernateExample.DataAccess"/>
</session-factory>
</hibernate-configuration>
I have previously only set up NHibernate for SQL Server. Am I missing anything here?

Did you copy and paste the code? because there's an extra > in there, in the connection.driver_class line

Semi colon seperator missed between user id value and password.

Excellent step by step tutorial on connecting NHibernate to Oracle:
http://nhbwithoracle.blogspot.com/

Once I had a similar problem, and I fixed it by adding hibernate to the property names, in your case:
<property name="hibernate.connection.provider">NHibernate.Connection.DriverConnectionProvider</property>
<property name="hibernate.dialect">NHibernate.Dialect.Oracle9Dialect</property>
<property name="hibernate.connection.driver_class">NHibernate.Driver.OracleDataClientDriver</property>
<property name="hibernate.connection.connection_string">Data Source=DB;User ID=USERPassword=****;</property>
Hope it helps

NHibernate Configuration Settings

This is my Configuration file. I have a database that name is Basin.
My sql server editon is 2012 express.
also, My Project name is NHibernate_Test
<hibernate-configuration xmlns="urn:nhibernate-configuration-2.2">
<session-factory>
<property name="connection.provider">NHibernate.Connection.DriverConnectionProvider</property>
<property name="dialect">NHibernate.Dialect.MsSql2008Dialect</property>
<propert name="query.substitutions">hqlFunction=SQLFUNC</propert>
<property name="connection.driver_class">NHibernate.Driver.SqlClientDriver</property>
<property name="connection.connection_string">Data Source=(local);Initial Catalog=Basin; Integrated Security=True; </property>
<property name="show_sql">true</property>
<mapping assembly="NHibernate_Test"/>
</session-factory> </hibernate-configuration> </configuration
But I am getting a error
Error : An exception occurred parsing configuration :The element 'session-factory' in namespace 'urn:nhibernate-configuration-2.2' has invalid child element 'propert' in namespace 'urn:nhibernate-configuration-2.2'. List of possible elements expected: 'property, mapping, class-cache, collection-cache, event, listener' in namespace 'urn:nhibernate-configuration-2.2'.
It is at the line:
<propert name="query.substitutions">hqlFunction=SQLFUNC</propert>
exactly as in the exception:
..has invalid child element 'propert' in namespace..
we need
<property...
see the property with y at the end

NHibernate 2.1.2 connection open upon factory.OpenSession()?

When I open a session with
var session = factory.OpenSession();
and check session.Connection.State it is Open. The "Connection" is of type SqlConnection.
This means that by creating the session the connection is automatically opened, which I thought that with NH isn't the case. Shouldn't this be closed until NH determines the optimal time for flush? What am I doing wrong?
The hibernate.cfg.xml:
<hibernate-configuration xmlns="urn:nhibernate-configuration-2.2">
<session-factory>
<property name="connection.provider">NHibernate.Connection.DriverConnectionProvider</property>
<property name="dialect">NHibernate.Dialect.MsSql2005Dialect</property>
<property name="connection.driver_class">NHibernate.Driver.SqlClientDriver</property>
<property name="connection.connection_string">Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=Test; Integrated Security=SSPI</property>
<property name='proxyfactory.factory_class'>NHibernate.ByteCode.Castle.ProxyFactoryFactory, NHibernate.ByteCode.Castle</property>
</session-factory>
</hibernate-configuration>
No, what actually happens is that NHibernate creates and opens a connection when you first say session.Connection (if the session didn't already have a connection, of course)

nhibernate dialect error : seems to be a bug

I am using an oracle database, so defined dialect as Oracle9Dialect.
But it throws error :
"Could not load type NHibernate.Dialect.
Oracle9Dialect. Possible
cause: no assembly name specified."
I just change the dialect as MsSql2000Dialect without changing
driver_class, it works. But, in this case i cannot use oracle spesific
features..
any suggestions?
<hibernate-configuration xmlns="urn:nhibernate-configuration-2.2" >

<property name="connection.driver_class">NHibernate.Driver.OracleDataClientDriver</ property>
<property name="connection.connection_string">

</property>
<property name="adonet.batch_size">10</property>
<property name="show_sql">false</property>
<property name="dialect">NHibernate.Dialect.MsSql2000Dialect</property>
<property name="use_outer_join">true</property>
<property name="command_timeout">60</property>
<property name="query.substitutions">true 1, false 0, yes 'Y', no 'N'</property>
<property name="proxyfactory.factory_class">NHibernate.ByteCode.LinFu.ProxyFactoryFactory, NHibernate.ByteCode.LinFu</property>
<mapping assembly="CoreHR" />
</session-factory>
</hibernate-configuration>
There's no longer a class called NHibernate.Dialect.Oracle9Dialect in NHibernate 2.1. The class is now called NHibernate.Dialect.Oracle9iDialect.

How can I use the NHibernate Configuration class with Fluent NHibernate

I want to be flexible even after deploying my code so I like to use the hibernate.cfg.xml file for configuring NHibernate. Now, I am planning to use Fluent NHibernate to do all my Class => Table mapping. Is there a way I could use the old NHibernate Configuration class to configure Fluent NHibernate?
Yes, if you're using the fluent configuration API the Configure method has an overload that takes an existing NHibernate Configuration instance, which can be built from your hibernate.cfg.xml.
Alright, So this was obviously my fault. I tried passing the NHibernate Configurtion object into the Fluently.Configure() method, but my code was throwing up all kinds of errors. The problem was with the version of NHibernate 'Fluent-NHibernate' users. I didn't know that the proxy factory class attribute was now mandatory. So, my hibernate.cfg.xml file was missing that attribute. It's wierd, Fluent NHibernate didn't give me any clue about that. It's when I tried using plain NHibernate that I found this problem. Below are the different version of my hibernate.cfg.xml files. Hope it helps future devs.

Nhibernate 2.0.1 with mono

I've build my WinForm app on windows machine and the app is working
ok. When I user nhibernate 1.2.1 the app also worked on linux machine
using mono, but now when i upgraded app to nhibernate 2.0.1 it works
only in windows.
I've get error:
NHibernate.InvalidProxyTypeException: The following types may not be
used as proxies:
xxxx.Data.Dao.Credit : method obj_address should be virtual
......
Can anyone help me with this problem?
You can try and disable the NHibernate Config proxy validator. it seems to not work with mono.
You can do this by adding:
<property name="use_proxy_validator">false</property> in your app/web.config nhibernate section.
For an example config with this property set, see here:
http://www.mail-archive.com/nhusers#googlegroups.com/msg02109.html
or modify this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
<configSections>

I'm also on mono trying to use NHibernate. Most forums seem to say setting the string to virtual will fix the problem, but this hasn't worked for me. What is curious is that my error is almost identical -
"" method obj_address should be virtual
This makes me think the proxy "address" is reserved for something else. Try changing the name of this column?
