I know this is an question with some age, but I ran into this issue and found that if you are using Spring-Java configuration, that a resolution had a couple parts to this. Relative placement of some configuration to the controller was important.

First, the CoreConfiguration

@Configuration
public class CoreConfiguration {
@Bean          
public LocalSessionFactoryBean sessionFactory() {
    LocalSessionFactoryBean factoryBean = new org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.LocalSessionFactoryBean();
    String annotatedPckgs[] ={"org.tigersndragons.reports.model.warehouse"};
    factoryBean.setAnnotatedPackages(annotatedPckgs);           
    Properties hibernateProperties = new Properties();
    try {
        hibernateProperties.load(this.getClass().getResourceAsStream("props/hibernate.properties"));        
        factoryBean.setHibernateProperties(hibernateProperties);
    } catch (IOException e) { }
    factoryBean.setPackagesToScan("org.telligen.reports.model.warehouse");
    factoryBean.setDataSource(warehouseDataSource());//("jdbc/warehouse");
    try {
        factoryBean.afterPropertiesSet();
    } catch (IOException e) {       }
    return factoryBean;
}
@Bean
public WarehouseDAO getWarehouseDAO(){
    WarehouseDAO wrhsDao = new WarehouseDAO();
    wrhsDao.setSessionFactory(sessionFactory().getObject());
    return wrhsDao;
}

...

@Configuration
public class ScheduleConfiguration {
private static Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(ScheduleConfiguration.class);

@Autowired
private CoreConfiguration coreConfiguration;


@Bean
public HandlerMapping handlerMapping(){
    DefaultAnnotationHandlerMapping mapping =  new DefaultAnnotationHandlerMapping();
    mapping.setInterceptors(new Object []{coreConfiguration.openSessionViewInterceptor()});
    return mapping;
}

@Bean
public HandlerAdapter handerAdapter(){
    return new AnnotationMethodHandlerAdapter();
}

@Bean
public ScheduleController scheduleController() throws Exception{
    ScheduleController controller = new ScheduleController();
        controller.setWrhsDao(coreConfiguration.getWarehouseDAO());
    return controller;
}

 ...

In the Controller, I had to set

@Controller
@RequestMapping
public class ScheduleController {
private static Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(ScheduleController.class);

private WarehouseDAO wrhsDao;
    @RenderMapping
@RequestMapping("VIEW")
public String viewSchedule(Map modelMap){...}

public void setWrhsDao(WarehouseDAO wrhsDao) {
    this.wrhsDao = wrhsDao;
}
}

The WarehouseDAO has the @Repository annotation and the SessionFactory was not Autowired.

Hope this helps someone else with similar questions.
