Multiple Context Config files not working in Tomcat

[chichirico]

I'm trying to get Spring 1.2 configured with Tomcat 5.0.27 and I cannot seem to get mulitple context files working. I have 3 context files:
dataAccessContext.xml
applicationContext.xml
controller-servlet.xml

I define these in my web.xml file as:

<context-param>
   <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>	    
   <param-value>/WEB-INF/dataAccessContext.xml
                          /WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml
                          /WEB-INF/controller-servlet.xml
   </param-value>
</context-param>

I also have defined the ContextLoaderListener in my web.xml as

	<servlet>
		<servlet-name>context</servlet-name>
		<servlet-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</servlet-class>
		<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
	</servlet>

While trying to access my MVC application I get errors saying that some of the objects should appear in the document

"nested exception is org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: An element with the identifier "userDAO" must appear in the document."

I have my userDAO defined in my dataAccessContext.xml file and referenced in my applicationContext.xml file

I can get everything working if I mash it all into the controller-servlet.xml file but that is a huge mess. Does anyone have clues on what I'm doing wrong?
