Answer 1

You have to "wire" (or "inject") the exception handler in your spring beans. I'm not sure which of your Spring bean actually needs the exception handler.

Personally, I use default-autowire="byName", which cause my exceptionHandler to be wired in my Controller class automatically. Your approach actually use manual wiring. So you need to find out which bean should actually use the exception handler. Have you tried (just on top of my head):

Or you could just add the autowired mechanism of Spring and let it wire the beans automatically. :)
