Spring standalone app, Spring Integration

[Invincible]

Hi,

I have an application using Web-mvc and SI. I am using Spring 2.6 with JDK 1.6. I have used ehcache for caching. Application works perfectly fine. Now I have a requirement to develop a standalone application that does more or less what the different components of my web app does. So, I decided to re-use them. But when I run the application, I create the application context, I get the below error

Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'com.googlecode.ehcache.annotations.impl.CacheStaticMethodMatcherPointcut#0': Cannot resolve reference to bean 'com.googlecode.ehcache.annotations.impl.CacheAttributeSourceImpl#0' while setting bean property 'cacheAttributeSource'; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'com.googlecode.ehcache.annotations.impl.CacheAttributeSourceImpl#0': Cannot resolve reference to bean 'ehCacheManager' while setting bean property 'cacheManager'; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.CannotLoadBeanClassException: Cannot find class [org.springframework.cache.ehcache.EhCacheManagerFactoryBean] for bean with name 'ehCacheManager' defined in class path resource [META-INF/spring/monitorApplicationContext.xml]; nested exception is java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.springframework.cache.ehcache.EhCacheManagerFactoryBean

My application context file looks like this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

	</bean>	
	
</beans>

I am reading the application context this way

ApplicationContext context = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("/META-INF/spring/monitorApplicationContext.xml");
DownloadServiceImpl downloadServiceImpl = (DownloadServiceImpl) context.getBean("downloadService");

What is going wrong?

Thanks,
Jan.

Check your classpath. Its clearly missing EhCacheManagerFactoryBean.

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.springframework.cache.ehcache.EhCacheManagerFactoryBean

Perhaps you missed something when moving from web to standalone.
