i18n message.properties - Can't find bundle for base name messages
I'm hoping one of you brilliant Spring developers will be able to help me with this. I've been stuck all day, researching docs and online tips, to no avail.
Want to support i18n internationalization in a simple test Spring MVC web app using the messages in a JSP.
My message_xx_YY.properties files are in /src/main/webapp/resources/international/. I currently have messages_en_US.properties and messages_es_ES.properties.
I've tried every combination of messageSource basename I can think of in my servlet-context.xml file, and I always get the error "nested exception is java.util.MissingResourceException: Can't find bundle for base name messages, locale en_US".
Here's my ../WEB-INF/spring/appServlet/servlet-context.xml file:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans:beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc/spring-mvc-3.0.xsd

<!-- DispatcherServlet Context: defines this servlet's request-processing infrastructure -->

<beans:bean class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver">
<beans:property name="prefix" value="/WEB-INF/views/" />
<beans:property name="suffix" value=".jsp" />
</beans:bean>
<!-- Support i18n message bundles -->
<beans:bean id="messageSource" class="org.springframework.context.support.ReloadableResourceBundleMessageSource">
<!-- This is the path to where the property file is located, plus base name of the properties file (messages, ex: the bean will expand to messages_en_US.properties) -->
<beans:property name="basename" value="classpath:/resources/international/messages" />
<beans:property name="cacheSeconds" value="1" />
<beans:property name="defaultEncoding" value="UTF-8" />
<beans:property name="fallbackToSystemLocale" value="true" />
</beans:bean>
<context:component-scan base-package="com.mydomain.myapp" />
</beans:beans>
I've tried all of the following:
Code:
<beans:property name="basename" value="classpath:/resources/international/messages" />
<beans:property name="basename" value="/resources/international/messages" />
<beans:property name="basename" value="resources/international/messages" />
<beans:property name="basename" value="./resources/international/messages" />
<beans:property name="basename" value="../resources/international/messages" />
and have even tried moving the properties files to WEB-INF with appropriate basename - no change.
My NavigationController, which I don't beleive is the issue, is:
Code:
Locale locale = Locale.getDefault();
ResourceBundle resources = ResourceBundle.getBundle("messages", locale);
Does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong here? Greatly appreciate ANY help, guidance, or assistance.
Thanks!
