NHibernate - LAZY LOADING PROBLEM -Initializing[]-Could not initialize proxy - no Session."}

Question

Hi I use Fluent NHibernate and I am little confusing with Lazy Loading.

I queried object in database
modified object properties
update database with this object

Here is code:

public class Credentials
{
    public virtual int Id { get; set; }
    public virtual string Nick { get; set; }
    public virtual string Password { get; set; }
}

public class CredentialsMap : ClassMap<Credentials>
{
    public CredentialsMap()
    {
        Id(x => x.Id);
        Map(x => x.Nick).Column("NICK");
        Map(x => x.Password).Column("PASSWORD");
        Table("R_CREDENTAILS");
    }
}

public class Status
{
    public virtual int Id { get; set; }
    public virtual string Msg { get; set; }
    public virtual DateTime AddTime { get; set; }
}

public class StatusMap : ClassMap<Status>
{
    public StatusMap()
    {
        Id(x => x.Id);
        Map(x => x.Msg).Column("MESSAGE");
        Map(x => x.AddTime).Column("ADD_TIME");
        Table("R_STATUS");
    }
}

public class Account
{
    public virtual int Id { get; set; }
    public virtual string SelfNick { get; set; }
    public virtual Credentials Credentials { get; set; }
    public virtual Status Status { get; set; }
}

public class AccountMap : ClassMap<Account>
{
    public AccountMap()
    {
        Id(x => x.Id);
        Map(x => x.SelfNick).Column("SELF_NICK");
        References(x => x.Credentials)
            .Column("CREDENTIALS_ID")
            .ForeignKey();
        References(x => x.Status)
            .Column("STATUS_ID")
            .ForeignKey();
        Table("R_ACCOUNTS");
    }
}

NHibernate configuration class:

public class NHiberanteHelper
{
    private static ISessionFactory _sessionFactory;

    private static ISessionFactory SessionFactory
    {
        get
        {
            if (_sessionFactory == null)
                InitializeSessionFactory();

            return _sessionFactory;
        }
    }

    private static void InitializeSessionFactory()
    {
        _sessionFactory = Fluently.Configure()
            .Database(MsSqlConfiguration.MsSql2008
                          .ConnectionString(
                               @"Server=TEST\SQLEXPRESS;Database=SimpleNHibernate;Trusted_Connection=True;").
                               ShowSql()
                              )
            .Mappings(m => m.FluentMappings.AddFromAssemblyOf<Account>().Conventions.Add( DefaultCascade.All()))
            .ExposeConfiguration(cfg => new SchemaUpdate(cfg).Execute(true, true))
            .BuildSessionFactory();
    }

    public static ISession OpenSession()
    {
        return SessionFactory.OpenSession();
    }
}

Here is usage:

    public class LoginDbHelper
    {
        public static Account GetAccount(string nick)
        {
            using (var session = NHiberanteHelper.OpenSession())
            {
                var account = (session.QueryOver<Account>()
                    .JoinQueryOver<Credentials>(a => a.Credentials)
                    .Where(c => c.Nick == nick));

                if (account != null)
                    return account.SingleOrDefault();

                return null;
            }
        }

        public static void SaveOrUpdateAccount(Account account)
        {
            using (var session = NHiberanteHelper.OpenSession())
            {
                using (var trans = session.BeginTransaction())
                {
                    session.SaveOrUpdate(account);
                    trans.Commit();
                }
            }
        }
   }

Problem code:

var actualAccount = LoginDbHelper.GetAccount(nick);

//modify
actualAccount.Status.Msg = "New status 2";
actualAccount.Status.AddTime = DateTime.Now;


LoginDbHelper.SaveOrUpdateAccount(account);

I get this error:

{"Initializing[NHibernateSample1.Status#1]-Could not initialize proxy - no Session."}

I google it and I think It cause by Lazy Loading because in method GetAccount I close SESSION. It is my first attempt with NHibernate so HOW CAN SOLVE THIS PROBLEM CORRECTLY? It is possible disable LAZY LOADING if YES how to do it?

Answer

You are correct. Because the NHibernate Session is closed in your GetAccount method (it is only open in the scope of the using statement), you cannot load additional objects outside of this method. There are 2 potential fixes:

Create the session at the operation level (i.e. in the method containing the problem code), then use this session in the get & save methods. You can use the session by passing it in as a parameter to the methods.
Change the object to not use lazy loading. You can do this by adding .Not.LazyLoad() to the Status object in your fluent mapping.
