Cannot find the declaration of element 'beans'

[Jayavardhan geepi]

I'm using Spring3.1.1 and in config file I'm using below namespace declarations.

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
	   xmlns:batch="http://www.springframework.org/schema/batch"
	   xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
	   xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.1.xsd
	  					   http://www.springframework.org/schema/batch http://www.springframework.org/schema/batch/spring-batch-2.1.xsd">

But if I change the xsd value to 'spring-beans-2.5.xsd ' (in xsi:schemaLocation) it works fine.
But not with spring-beans-3.1.xsd.
Can someone please help? I'm using eclipse.

Thanks

Sorry. Found out the issue.
I had spring jars of version 2.5.6 on classpath and not 3.1.1.
After addding 3.1.1 jar to classpath, its resolved.
Thanks

That is why I never put the version number with the xsd in schemaLocation, so that there won't ever be errors. It will just take the highest version of the xsd that is in the classpath.

So I would just put

xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/batch http://www.springframework.org/schema/batch/spring-batch.xsd"
