<beans>
	<!-- ========================= GENERAL DEFINITIONS ========================= -->

	<bean id="propertyConfigurer" 
		class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer">
		<property name="location"><value>/WEB-INF/conf/db.properties</value></property>
	</bean>

	<!-- ========================= RESOURCE DEFINITIONS ========================= -->

	<bean id="testJavaDataSource" 
		class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource">

	<bean id="testJavaSessionFactory"
	      class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate.LocalSessionFactoryBean">
	      <property name="dataSource"><ref local="testJavaDataSource"/> </property>
	      <property name="configLocation"><value>classpath&#58;hibernate.cfg.xml</value></property>
	   </bean>

    <bean id="testJavaTarget" 
    	class="uk.ac.ebi.database.dao.HibernateSbmlDao">
        <property name="sessionFactory">
            <ref bean="testJavaSessionFactory"/>
        </property>
    </bean>

	<bean id="testJavaDao"

		<property name="transactionAttributes">
			<props>
				<prop key="get*">PROPAGATION_REQUIRED,readOnly</prop>
				<prop key="store*">PROPAGATION_REQUIRED</prop>
			</props>
		</property>
	</bean>

testJavaApp-servlet:

	<bean id="testJavaAppController" 
		class="uk.ac.ebi.web.controller.TestJavaAppController">
		<property name="sbmlDao"><ref bean="testJavaDao"/></property>
		<property name="methodNameResolver"><ref local="testJavaAppControllerResolver"/></property>
	</bean>

when i try to deploy it i get this error:

[ContainerBackgroundProcessor[StandardEngine[Catalina]]] ERROR org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoader  - Context initialization failed
