Why isn't the Spring AOP XML schema properly loaded when Tomcat loads & reads beans.xml
- by chrisbunney
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"

<jaxws:endpoint

<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?
