using spring batch admin

[anshumania]

Hi
I am trying to customize spring batch admin and following the steps listed http://static.springsource.org/sprin...g-started.html have connected to my backend postgres database which is hosting my batch job data.
However i am having trouble getting the view to work . All my spring dependencies in the pom are set to 3.0.5 release and using the specific dependency as in the spring-batch-admin-manager (template) project is as

	
                  <dependency>
			<groupId>org.freemarker</groupId>
			<artifactId>freemarker</artifactId>
		</dependency>

So i checked the freemarker-servlet.xml located in spring-batch-admin-resources-1.0.0.M1.jar in the spring-batch-admin-example and the namespace contains a reference to the spring 2.5 xsd's. is that the problem ?
If i try to override that particular bean "defaultAnnotationHandlerMapping" in my own config i see that in the 3.0.5 release the DefaultAnnotationHandlerMapping class from o.s.web.servlet.mvc does not have interceptor property.

How to make spring-batch-admin work in 3.0.5 ?

Use the latest release (1.2.0.RELEASE), and not an old milestone?

Thanks. Atleast that got me started and by now i have been able to integrate successfully with spring integration and launch jobs as well using stringtojoblaunchrequest adapter and joblaunchmessaging handler.
Also I can lauch jobs from spring batch-admin ui. Great tool ! thanks !

hey anshumania..

Could you plz guide me fr how batch admin is to be connected to database? coz I m trying the same by following the steps given in ref doc..but no go..
I have deployed the spirng batch admin war on tomcat and hv configured the xml by overriding few elements as given in the doc.
Wat else we need to do to make it work?

what is the error you are getting ? make sure ur datasource is loaded.
You have to override as per the docs + u will need to append the prefix for your database in the configuration, if any.
