Exception rising while running spring mvc-hibernate application

Question

I am getting the following exception

org.springframework.beans.factory.xml.XmlBeanDefinitionStoreException: Line 8 in XML document from ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/spring/appServlet/servlet-context.xml] is invalid; nested exception is org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; lineNumber: 8; columnNumber: 107; cvc-elt.1.a: Cannot find the declaration of element 'beans:beans'

My servlet-context.xml is as follows,

I have took the integration code of spring mvc and hibernate application.I have changed few code as per my requirement.Getting the above exception while running the code.Is there any solution.The code which I have took is running well.But unable to run this modified code.

Answer 1

I suppose problem may be with the namespaces starting with https vs http . Try to use following namespace declarations in root element:

<beans:beans xmlns:beans="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
       xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
       xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc"
       xmlns:tx="http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx"
       xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans 
    https://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd 
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/context 
    https://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context.xsd
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc
    https://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc/spring-mvc.xsd
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx 
    https://www.springframework.org/schema/tx/spring-tx.xsd">
