the error i get is

[PersistenceUnit: xyz] Unable to build EntityManagerFactory

can any one tell me the mistake

Answer 1

The main problem was that the entites was not generated properly. so at the end of the stacktrace it was giving this error

Caused by: org.hibernate.MappingException: property mapping has wrong number of columns: com......date type: object

once the entity was generated correctly the problem was solved
