Error creating bean

**vw729** · Jan 28th, 2012, 12:28 AM

After upgrading both Spring core and STS to the latest version, I get the following error during the TC starting up. The cause seems to be from the Spring.

Code:

SEVERE: Exception sending context initialized event to listener instance of class org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener

Any missing piece or something else cause the problem?
