<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-mapping PUBLIC 
"-//Hibernate/Hibernate Mapping DTD 3.0//EN"
"http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-mapping-3.0.dtd">

this is my config.xml file

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC
"-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD//EN"

this code workinf fine.my cnfig and hbm files are in src folder.but i change the hbm file to resources folder.
then i change the config file as below

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC
"-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD//EN"
"http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">

<hibernate-configuration>
	<session-factory>
		<property name="hibernate.connection.driver_class">com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</property>
		<property name="hibernate.connection.url">jdbc:mysql://localhost/test</property>
		<property name="hibernate.connection.username">root</property>
		<property name="hibernate.connection.password">root</property>

		<property name="show_sql">true</property>
		<property name="dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect</property>
		<property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto">update</property>
		<!-- Mapping files -->
		<mapping resource="../resources/contact.hbm.xml" />
	</session-factory>
</hibernate-configuration>

163 [main] INFO org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration - Reading mappings from resource : ../resources/contact.hbm.xml

Try remove the ".." in the mapping, leaving "/resources/contact.hbm.xml"

Add resource folder to your classpath.

In eclipse go to properties of your project. Press Alt+Enter on root folder.

Then select Java Build Path item and locate Source tab. Under that tab there is button Add Folder to specify folder to add to classpath.

Then reference contact.hbm.xml starting from folder under resources. In your case it is direct child, so

<mapping resource="contact.hbm.xml" />
