Postgresql , Hibernate and issues with Schemas

In Hibernate you can easily map an entity class to a database table using

@Entity
@Table(name="student")
public class Student implements Serializable {}

But if you are using Postgresql and you are on a schema, you cannot use the above.

If you use the above method, it will result follwoing error

Basically hibernate cannot find the table inside the schema, even though you have specified the correct database in configuration.

Solution. 

@Entity
@Table(name="student", schema="student_tracker")
public class Student implements Serializable {}

Schema tag will make sure that you are mapping the table as student_tracker.student
