I have been trying setting up a small working sample of Hibernate. However, when I am executing the code I am getting the below error.

Exception in thread "main" org.hibernate.exception.SQLGrammarException: could not insert: [com.sample.Person]

But I am already having a table by the name person in the database and here's my modified hibernate.cfg.xml

<!-- hibernate dialect -->

    <property name="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLInnoDBDialect</property>

    <property name="hibernate.connection.driver_class">org.postgresql.Driver</property>

    <property name="hibernate.connection.url">jdbc:postgresql://localhost/testDB</property>

    <property name="hibernate.connection.username">postgres</property>

    <property name="hibernate.connection.password"></property>

    <property name="hibernate.show.sql" ></property> 

    <property name="transaction.factory_class">org.hibernate.transaction.JDBCTransactionFactory</property>

    <!-- Automatic schema creation (begin) === -->

    <property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto">create</property>

    <!-- Simple memory-only cache -->

    <property name="hibernate.cache.provider_class">org.hibernate.cache.HashtableCacheProvider</property>

    <!-- Enable Hibernate's automatic session context management -->

    <property name="current_session_context_class">thread</property>

    <!-- ############################################ -->

    <!-- # mapping files with external dependencies # -->

    <!-- ############################################ -->

    <mapping resource="com/sample/Person.hbm.xml" />

</session-factory>

It would be great if anyone could point out what I am doing wrong here, as this is my first attempt at Hibernate. 

EDIT: Person.hbm.xml

<class name="com.sample.Person" table="person">

    <id name="id" column="ID">

        <generator class="native" />

    </id>

    <property name="name">

        <column name="NAME" length="16" not-null="true" />

    </property>

    <property name="surname">

        <column name="SURNAME" length="16" not-null="true" />

    </property>

    <property name="address">

        <column name="ADDRESS" length="16" not-null="true" />

    </property>

</class>

UPDATE: I quite noticed something weird, I had created the relation in the Database and then executed this piece of code, only to see that the table gets deleted as in it just vanishes when I am running this code; any idea why this is happening?

You can solve the error by modifying the following property in the hibernate.cfg.xml

<property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto">validate</property>

At first, the table was getting deleted every time I executed the program and now it doesn't delete, as hibernate only validates the schema and does not affect changes to it.
