    出现原因：你导入项目中的是hibernate4的jar，但是你applicationContext.xml中的sessionFactory配置的却是   org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.LocalSessionFactoryBean。

    解决办法：applicationContext.xml中的sessionFactory应改为：
                        

<bean id="sessionFactory" class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.LocalSessionFactoryBean">

同样，transactionManager的class也要改成hibernate4：
                   

    <bean id="transactionManager"  class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.HibernateTransactionManager">
           <property name="sessionFactory" ref="sessionFactory" />
    </bean>
