Could not open Hibernate Session for transaction / Cannot open connection [closed]

Question

In my application, I have a module that is designed to search a database for users and display their information in a table inside a jsp. I just setup Spring Security inside my application. I was able to make a connection to the database from the login page, though for some reason none of my DAO's CRUD operations (in this case, the search) are working.

Thanks, and please let me know if I can provide any more information.

Here is most of my stack trace.

Answer 1

java.sql.SQLException: invalid arguments in call means problem while connect to database do to URL/auth issues: looking stacktrace your are not getting connection via UserCredentialsDataSourceAdapter (your id="datasource") but using DriverManagerDataSource (id="serverDatasource"): in few word your are trying to connect without using user/password.

In sessionFactory bean creating wire:
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource"/>
instead of:
<property name="dataSource" ref="serverDatasource"/>
