@EnableAspectJAutoProxy issues

[arreyf]

When adding @EnableAspectJAutoProxy... get error stating that No matching factory method found transactionAdvisor()


Configuration class:

@Configuration
@ComponentScan
@EnableTransactionManagement
@EnableAspectJAutoProxy
public class Configure
{
   @Bean(name="transactionManager")
   public HibernateTransactionManager hinbernateTransactionManager()
   { .... }

   @Bean(name="sessionFactory")
   public SessionFactory sessionFactory()
   { .... }

   @Bean
   public AnnotationSessionFactoryBean sessionFactoryBean()
   { .... }

   @Bean
   public DataSource dataSource()
   { .... }

}

Aspect Class:

@Aspect
@Component
public AspectedClass
{
   @Autowired
   private SessionFactory sessionFactory

   @Autowired
   private UtilityClass utils

   @Around("@target(org.springframework.transaction.annotation.Transactional)")
   public Object invoke(ProceedingJointPoint pjp) throws Throwable
   {
       .... 
       pjp.proceed()
       ....
   }
}

Gives me this error

Caused by:org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean name with name 'org.springframework.transaction.config.internalTransactionAdvisor' defined in class path resource [org/springframework/transaction/annotation/ProxyTransactionMamagementConfiguration.class]: No matching factory method found: factory bean 'org.springframework.transaction.annotation.ProxyTransactionManagementConfiguration#0'; factory method 'transactionAdvisor()'.

Yesterday I got the exactly same error and it was driving me nuts. The problem is that my pointcut was erroneous and affected Spring classes. Try to use a very specific pointcut, including only one method of one class, for example.
