Please UseCodeTags when posting code or configuration. Unformatted code and configuration is unnecessarily difficult to read. You can edit your post by using the button.

Are you deploying all the required dependencies? You're clearly missing a class.

[Nagaraju Mulinti]

you mean...UserDetails.hbm file

[madhuri kunchala]

you can edit the message what you posted..on the above you see CODE Button..use that what David is saying

[Mark Secrist]

This is probably the crux of the matter.

...
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/dom4j/DocumentException   
    java.lang.Class.forName0(Native Method)   
    java.lang.Class.forName(Unknown Source)   
...

This is usually because the library containing this class didn't make it into the deployment. It should be found under WEB-INF/lib in the deployment. In this case, the dom4j-<version>.jar file should be there.

Alternatively, I've seen cases where the JAR file is deployed but the version is missing expected elements.
