Can anyone suggest me what I am doing wrong here?

You don't have a table called user in the database called testspring. — Sotirios Delimanolis

Shouldn't hibernate itself create table in database first time if doesn't exist? — code_fish
– code_fish, Commented Nov 8, 2013 at 14:34
@codeFish You need to add a config for that hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto=update or create. — Sotirios Delimanolis
– Sotirios Delimanolis, Commented Nov 8, 2013 at 14:34
I am using hibernate annotation. Isn't it enough or should I have to right each config file for each of the data base pojo classes? — code_fish

If the table really, really, does exist in mySQL, and your using Linux/Unix, and the error shows the table name in all wrong/upper-case, then the issue is that table names in MySQL are case sensitive and hibernate is upper casing them. I'm using hibernate 4.3.

I just had this issue. Explanation here: lower_case_table_names=1

--edit-- In retrospect, it's probably better to find and change any @Table or hbm.xml references to match the database. I ran a wizard that generated an hbm.xml with uppercase names -- didn't realize that it was in my project until just now. I'll leave this here to make people aware of the case sensitivity.

--end of edit--

Here is how I fixed it:

Drop the database.

Add this to /etc/mysql/my.conf:

set lower_case_table_names=1 #(default value '0').

Restart mysqld.
Recreate the Database.
optional? Change to lowercase all table names in annotations/hbm.xml.

Hibernate won't automatically generate your database schema for you. You have to tell it to do so with a special hibernate property:

hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto

With value update or create based on what you want. See here and the related chapters.

In Spring, the configuration goes

    <property name="hibernateProperties">
        <props>
            <prop key="hibernate.dialect">${jdbc.dialect}</prop>
            <prop key="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto">create</prop>
            <prop key="hibernate.show_sql">true</prop>
        </props>
    </property>
