spring BeanCreationException confusion about mapping

Question

trying to integrate hibernate and spring ,I ran into this error

SEVERE: Context initialization failed org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanC

Answer 1

I faced similar kind of problem. I have defined the controller class with "@Controller" and also in the Spring-config.xml file as a bean and have injected the dependencies.

This was causing the problem. @Controller is defining the bean and again, the bean defined in the xml file is redefining the dependencies. I tried autowiring the dependency and removed it as a bean from the xml file. Then it worked.
