Problems migrating from Security 2.04 to 3.1

[barzousky]

I am somewhat new to spring security and I am trying to migrate an existing application from security 2.0.4 to 3.1 and I am getting the following error message:

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationExce ption: Error creating bean with name 'org.springframework.security.authentication.dao.D aoAuthenticationProvider#0': Initialization of bean failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.ConversionNotSupportedEx ception: Failed to convert property value of type 'org.springframework.security.authentication.dao.D aoAuthenticationProvider' to required type 'org.springframework.security.core.userdetails.Use rDetailsService' for property 'userDetailsService'; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalStateException: Cannot convert value of type [org.springframework.security.authentication.dao.Da oAuthenticationProvider] to required type [org.springframework.security.core.userdetails.User DetailsService] for property 'userDetailsService': no matching editors or conversion strategy found

I feel like I am missing something obvious but I can't for the life of me see it.

This is my applicationContextSecurity.xml file

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
