Data Persistence won't run in Java 9.0.1 on IntelliJ due to errors in XML parsing and JAXB issues, please help

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/xml/bind/JAXBException

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.xml.bind.JAXBException

I tried installing javax.xml jaxb-api & jaxb-impl, yet I got a lot of new errors:

Caused by: org.hibernate.internal.util.config.ConfigurationException: Unable to perform unmarshalling at line number -1 and column -1 in RESOURCE hibernate.cfg.xml.

One of '{"http://www.hibernate.org/xsd/orm/cfg":session-factory}' is expected.
