Hibernate Dialect must be explicitly set error

This morning I fired up my dev environment to carry on working on my first ORM(Hibernate)/ColdFusion 9 app and got "Hibernate Dialect must be explicitly set". After some general tinkering and my first caffeine intake I finally woke up and realised my DB server wasn't fired up. Just thought I'd share as I didn't find much on Google about this.

Thanks for posting this. I had no luck on Google either. You prob just saved me a good amount of time and plenty of cursing :P
They should change that error. If a datasourse is not available, I expect my application to explicitly tell me that it could not find a datasource. This error seems so generic to me.
Cheers!
