Hi everybody !!

I have a Hibernete 3.0.5-Spring 1.2.1 simple test case with the following stack trace:

org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefini tionException: No bean named 'carDao' is defined: org.springframework.beans.factory.support.DefaultL istableBeanFactory defining beans [beanRefFactory]; root of BeanFactory hierarchy

The refered Java code with the error is:
....

private ApplicationContext ctx = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("beanRefFactory.xml");
......

protected void setUp() throws Exception {
		super.setUp();
		carDAO = (CarDao)ctx.getBean("carDao");
	}
....

the content of the applicationContext.xml file

<beans>

Please drop me a few words if anybody has any coments about this error !

I have put the datasource bean definition (before into the configurationContext-dataSource.xml file) into the configurationContext.xml file and it works .

The java code is:

private ApplicationContext ctx = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("configurationContext.xml");
......

protected void setUp() throws Exception {
      super.setUp();
      carDAO = (CarDao)ctx.getBean("carDao");
   }
....

now, the content of configurationContext.xml is:

<beans>
<!-- ========================= DATA SOURCE DEFINITIONS ========================= -->
<bean id="dataSource" class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverM anagerDataSource">
<property name="driverClassName">
<value>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</value>
</property>
<property name="url">
<value>jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/jbossdb</value>
</property>
<property name="username">
<value>username</value>
</property>
<property name="password">
<value>password</value>
</property>
</bean>

<!-- ========================= GENERAL DEFINITIONS ========================= -->

So, anybody knows how can I configure different description bean files for using in the same application ?????????. What I did wrong with my first approach??
