Castle ActiveRecord – Exception : The ProxyFactoryFactory was not configured

with 15 comments

I’ve just updated to the latest version of the Castle stack and got hit with this exception:

The ProxyFactoryFactory was not configured.
Initialize 'proxyfactory.factory_class' property of the session-factory configuration section with one of the available NHibernate.ByteCode providers.
Example:
NHibernate.ByteCode.LinFu.ProxyFactoryFactory, NHibernate.ByteCode.LinFu
Example:
NHibernate.ByteCode.Castle.ProxyFactoryFactory, NHibernate.ByteCode.Castle

Turns out the NHibernate config has changed and as the exception says you must now specify a factory class.

To fix the exception add a new line to your active record facility config:

<facility id="activerecord.facility" isweb="true" type="Castle.Facilities.ActiveRecordIntegration.ActiveRecordFacility, Castle.Facilities.ActiveRecordIntegration">

    <assemblies>

        <item>Nu.Core</item>

    </assemblies>

    <config>

        <add value="false" key="cache.use_query_cache" />

        <add value="ReadCommitted" key="connection.isolation" />

        <add value="false" key="show_sql" />

        <add value="NHibernate.Dialect.SQLiteDialect" key="dialect" />

        <add value="NHibernate.Driver.SQLite20Driver" key="connection.driver_class" />

        <add value="true=1;false=0" key="query.substitutions" />

        <add value="#{ConnectionString}" key="connection.connection_string" />

        <add value="NHibernate.Connection.DriverConnectionProvider" key="connection.provider" />

        <add value="NHibernate.ByteCode.Castle.ProxyFactoryFactory, NHibernate.ByteCode.Castle" key="proxyfactory.factory_class" />

    </config>

</facility>

Then add a reference in your project to NHibernate.ByteCode.Castle.dll.

  1. I don’t know much about AR config, since I only switched from RC2 to trunk today, but putting the whole database config stuff outside the facility section worked for me where putting it inside (like you did) didn’t … Thanks for posting!

  3. If you have downloaded and built from the trunk you’ll find the dll in:

    build\net-3.5\release

  6. I’m guessing you haven’t checked out the castle source and ran a build. To save you the hassle you can download the latest build from:

    http://www.castleproject.org:8090/

    The current latest release build: http://www.castleproject.org:8090/repository/download/bt6/131:id/castleproject-1.1-build_1152-net-3.5-release.zip contains a bin folder which contains a external-dependencies.zip file which contains the NHibernate.ByteCode.Castle.dll.

  7. Thanks for the response.
    but before getting in depth of this I would like to clarify my problem please have a look on this conversation http://forums.asp.net/t/1432123.aspx and let me know is NHibernate is the solution to this.

  9. Basically I want to create a project (whose output will be a DLL) which accepts the sql query in any kind of parameters for any database by the programer who uses that dll but the database will be opted by the end user. now the work of this dll will be it will trace the database type (SQL,Mysql,oracle etc.) opted by the end user. and then using the parametrs passed by the programmer fires the query on that type of database. and returns the resultset to the programmer for use. hope i my problem is clear to you.

  10. Sorry still not really clear.

    NHibernate will work with multiple database types (https://www.hibernate.org/361.html) you can query NHibernate using HQL (which is very similar syntax to SQL), NHibernate will then convert the HQL to a SQL dialect which the underlying database type understands.

    Not sure if that is any help to you, best of luck!

  14. There is a good series of web casts at http://www.summerofnhibernate.com/

    A good book might help http://www.manning.com/kuate/

    Any questions I would direct at http://groups.google.com/group/nhusers

    Other than that you could always Google nhibernate getting started… http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=nhibernate+getting+started
