Setting up a Spring JPA project for use in an MVC project - Error creating bean

Question

I developed a Spring JPA project in eclipse which has access to the data stored in a mysql server. Now I need to import this project in a Spring @ MVC project. So:

Answer 1

The dependencies:

   
    org.springframework
    spring-aspects
    3.1.0.RELEASE
   

   
    org.springframework
    spring-jdbc
    3.1.0.RELEASE
   

Does the version of these (3.1.0.RELEASE) match maven variable ${spring.framework.version}. As far as I can tell that could cause a mismatch of versions and may be causing the no such field error which usually is caused by mismatching versions.
