it's somehow confusing... don't know reason ....

i appreciate comments.

you're mixing hibernate dependencies:

1. the spring-orm comes hibernate version (e.g. 3.3.2.ga)
2. hibernate-core 4.2.2.final
3. hibernate-c3p0 3.6.3.final
4. the jpa version 2.0, supported hibernate 3.5+

run mvn:dependency:tree , make sure use single spring version (e.g. 3.2.3.release) , single hibernate version (e.g. 3.6.3.final).
