Hi Dennis,

here is my example config:

config.tx_test {
	persistence{
		enableAutomaticCacheClearing = 1
		updateReferenceIndex = 0
		classes {
			Tx_Test_Domain_Model_News {
				mapping {
					tableName = tt_news
				}
			}
		}
	}
}

I can't see any error here, atm there is no output of the news...
When I understood your message correctly, this mapping should work. 
Shouldn't it?

Regards
Mario
