Question

I have this query

  var hql = @"from Table1 tbl1
                            left join fetch tbl1.Table2";

 var c =session.CreateQuery(hql).SetFirstResult(1).SetMaxResults(5)
                            .List<Table1>().ToList();

It keeps on dieing.

Edit

nhibernate profiler is telling me that it is like a casting problem?

ERROR: 
The value "System.Object[]" is not of type "MvcApplication1.Models.Table1" and cannot be used in this generic collection.
Parameter name: value

Answer 1

NHibernate ICriteria’s SetFirstResult is ZERO BASED! First Result might indicate that it starts with 1 but it doesnt. SetFirstResult(1).SetMaxResults(5) is probably not what you’re trying to do.

change it to SetFirstResult(0).SetMaxResults(5)
