Unable to resolve name [org.hibernate.spatial.dialect.postgis.postgisdialect] as strategy [org.hibernate.dialect.dialect]

by

When encountering the error “unable to resolve name [org.hibernate.spatial.dialect.postgis.postgisdialect] as strategy [org.hibernate.dialect.dialect],” it means that Hibernate is unable to find the specified dialect for the PostGIS spatial extension.

The correct dialect for PostGIS is org.hibernate.spatial.dialect.postgis.PostgisDialect. You need to ensure that you have the necessary dependencies included in your project and specify the correct dialect in your Hibernate configuration.

Here’s an example of how you can configure Hibernate to use the PostGIS dialect:

    
      <property name="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.spatial.dialect.postgis.PostgisDialect</property>
      <property name="hibernate.connection.driver_class">org.postgresql.Driver</property>
      <property name="hibernate.connection.url">jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/mydatabase</property>
      <property name="hibernate.connection.username">myusername</property>
      <property name="hibernate.connection.password">mypassword</property>
      <!-- other Hibernate properties -->
