I'm trying to use Spring's Schema Based AOP Support in Eclipse and am getting errors when trying to load the configuration in Tomcat.

There are no errors in Eclipse and auto-complete works correctly for the aop namespace, however when I try to load the project into eclipse I get this error:

09:17:59,515 WARN XmlBeanDefinitionReader:47 - Ignored XML validation warning org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: schema_reference.4: Failed to read schema document 'http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop/spring-aop-2.5.xsd', because 1) could not find the document; 2) the document could not be read; 3) the root element of the document is not .

Followed by:

SEVERE: StandardWrapper.Throwable org.springframework.beans.factory.xml.XmlBeanDefinitionStoreException: Line 39 in XML document from /WEB-INF/beans.xml is invalid; nested exception is org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.c: The matching wildcard is strict, but no declaration can be found for element 'aop:config'.

Caused by: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.c: The matching wildcard is strict, but no declaration can be found for element 'aop:config'.

Based on this, it seems the schema is not being read when Tomcat parses the beans.xml file, leading to the <aop:config> element not being recognised.

My beans.xml file is as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
    xmlns:jaxws="http://cxf.apache.org/jaxws"
    xmlns:aop="http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans

        http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop

    <!-- NOTE: endpointName attribute maps to wsdl:port@name & should

    <!-- NOTE: serviceName attribute maps to wsdl:service@name & should be

    <!-- NOTE: address attribute is the actual URL of the web service

    <jaxws:endpoint
            xmlns:tns="http://iwebservices.ourdomain/"

            id="iwebservices"
            implementor="ourdomain.iwebservices.IWebServiceImpl"
            endpointName="tns:IWebServiceImplPort"
            serviceName="tns:IWebService"
            address="/I"
            wsdlLocation="wsdl/I.wsdl">
            <!-- To have CXF auto-generate WSDL on the fly, comment out the above wsdl 
            attribute -->

            <jaxws:features>
                    <bean class="org.apache.cxf.feature.LoggingFeature" />
            </jaxws:features>
    </jaxws:endpoint>


    <aop:config>
    <aop:aspect id="myAspect" ref="aBean">

    </aop:aspect>
    </aop:config>


</beans>

The <aop:config> element in my beans.xml file is copy-pasted from the Spring website to try and remove any possible source of error

Can anyone shed any light on why this error is occurring and what I can do to fix it?
