Splring: ContextLoaderListener not working

[Nina Anderson]

Hi guys,

I'm using the springframeWork to initialize my hiberate classes which are location in my /WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml. However, when I try to start up my server, my strut action classes configuration in ContextLoaderPlugIn cannot find the bean classes defined in the applicationContext.

The following is the error I'm getting:
[9/15/07 3:49:14:421 PDT] 00000018 WebExtensionP W Servlet action_tmp is currently unavailable: null
[9/15/07 3:49:16:187 PDT] 00000018 WebApp A SRVE0180I: [PBTest#PBWebApp.war] [/PBWebApp] [Servlet.LOG]: Initializing WebApplicationContext for Struts ActionServlet 'action', module ''
[9/15/07 3:49:16:281 PDT] 00000018 WebApp A SRVE0181I: [PBTest#PBWebApp.war] [/PBWebApp] [Servlet.LOG]: action: null: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name '/displayAddImages' defined in ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/presentationContext.xml]: Cannot resolve reference to bean 'businessBS' while setting bean property 'businessBS'; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No bean named 'businessBS' is defined


Here's my code:
/////WEB.XML//////////////

<!-- =================== Define Spring Bean Definition Files to be loaded ================== -->

I wonder if it could be related with the following bug :
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1088866&group_id=39190&atid=424562

Try using this instead:

<plug-in className="org.springframework.web.struts.ContextLoaderPlugIn">
<set-property property="contextConfigLocation" 
value="/WEB-INF/presentationContext.xml,/WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml/>
</plug-in>
