org.hibernate.HibernateException: Current transaction is not in progress

Follow the below to overcome Current transaction is not in progress exception:



 this.getSessionFactory().openSession().createCriteria(Project.class);

Dont use the following if you are experiencing the above exception:

this.getSessionFactory().getCurrentSession().createCriteria(Project.class);

Else you can also use the following also:

Session session = ModelManager.getInstance().getCurrentSession();
  Transaction tx = null;
  List<Actor> studentList= null;

  try {
    tx = session.beginTransaction();

    Criteria criteria = session.createCriteria(Student.class);
    criteria.add( Restrictions.like("name", "A%") );
    actorList = criteria.list();

    tx.commit();
  } catch (HibernateException he) {
    tx.rollback()

  }
