Hibernate and Acegi caching

[martique]

I don't know if I'm writing in the correct column, but I want to set two different cache for acegi security and hibernate.

I've tried to configure something like this:

For acegi:

	<bean id="cacheManagerFactoryBean" class="org.springframework.cache.ehcache.EhCacheManagerFactoryBean">
		<property name="configLocation">
			<value>classpath:ehcache.xml</value>
		</property>
	</bean>
	
	
	<bean id="cacheFactoryBean" class="org.springframework.cache.ehcache.EhCacheFactoryBean">
		<property name="cacheManager">
			<ref local="cacheManagerFactoryBean"/>
		</property>
		<property name="cacheName">
			<value>usersCache</value>
		</property>
	</bean>
	
	
	<bean id="usersCache" class="org.acegisecurity.providers.dao.cache.EhCacheBasedUserCache">
		<property name="cache"><ref local="cacheFactoryBean" /></property>
	</bean>
	
	
	<bean id="daoAuthenticationProvider" class="org.acegisecurity.providers.dao.DaoAuthenticationProvider">
		<!-- <property name="authenticationDao">-->
		<property name="userDetailsService">
			<ref local="authenticationDao" />
		</property>
		 
		<property name="userCache">
			<ref local="usersCache"/>
		</property>
		
	</bean>

For hibernate:

<property name="hibernateProperties">
  <props>						
				
    	        <prop key="hibernate.cache.provider_class">org.hibernate.cache.EhCacheProvider</prop>
    	        <prop key="hibernate.cache.provider_configuration_file_resource_path">ehcache.xml</prop>
    	        <prop key="hibernate.cache.use_query_cache">true</prop>
    	        
  </props>
</property>

and my ehcache.xml:

<ehcache>
   <diskStore path="java.io.tmpdir"/>

   <defaultCache name="hibernateCache"
        maxElementsInMemory="100"
        eternal="false"
        timeToIdleSeconds="300"
        timeToLiveSeconds="300"
        overflowToDisk="true"
        />
        
         
    <cache name="usersCache"
        maxElementsInMemory="300"
        eternal="false"
        timeToIdleSeconds="500"
        timeToLiveSeconds="500"
        overflowToDisk="true"
        /> 
</ehcache>

I think that it doesn't work, so please give me some tips to configure it correctly.

Solution with two different files for xml configuration also didn't work.

Just out of interest what makes you think this isn't working?

Because in my log file I have only something like this

for hibernate:

and there is no information at all that application uses objects from cache

I've never tried this myself, but you appear to be loading the same ehcache.xml in both places. I would have thought you'd want to use two different files (one for each cache).
