I am trying to learn JPA- Hibernate with a very simple example mentioned at this site
https://schuchert.wikispaces.com/JPA+Tutorial+1+-+Getting+Started
(I have tried alternate links as well but all ended up with same problem)

Before I describe my example in brief here I have listed the important exceptions-

Explicit persistence provider error(s) occurred for "examplePersistenceUnit" after trying the following discovered implementations: org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence from provider: org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence
Caused by: org.hibernate.HibernateException: Unable to build the default ValidatorFactory
Caused by: javax.validation.ValidationException: Could not create Configuration.
    at javax.validation.Validation$GenericBootstrapImpl.configure(Validation.java:175)
Caused by: java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException: Index: 0, Size: 0

configuration of project is as follows
persistence.xml {inside src folder directory META-INF}

<persistence xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence"
             xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
             xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_2_0.xsd"
             version="2.0">
    <persistence-unit name="examplePersistenceUnit" 
                      transaction-type="RESOURCE_LOCAL">     
       <properties>
            <property name="hibernate.show_sql" value="false" />
            <property name="hibernate.format_sql" value="false" />

            <property name="hibernate.connection.driver_class" 
                      value="org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver" />
            <property name="hibernate.connection.url" 
                      value="jdbc:hsqldb:mem:mem:aname" />
            <property name="hibernate.connection.username" value="sa" />

            <property name="hibernate.dialect" 
                      value="org.hibernate.dialect.HSQLDialect" />
            <property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" value="create" />
        </properties>
    </persistence-unit>
</persistence>

and then I have a simple junit class which does the following

@Before
    public void init(){
         BasicConfigurator.configure();
            Logger.getLogger("org").setLevel(Level.TRACE);
        emf= Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("examplePersistenceUnit");
        em = emf.createEntityManager();

    }

Can any one please help me in resolving this I tried to search on forums and debugged it with decompiler but is of no use

    Is the Hibernate validator in your classpath?

    If you are using Maven, just add the dependency for the respective Hibernate version ().
