application_context.xml working with spring 2.0.2 but NOT with spring 2.0.4

[delasoul]

Hello,

i have just switched to spring 2.04 from spring 2.02 - and now my ClassPathXmlContext creation is failing - do I have to add something to the path? (in the moment i have spring-core, spring-context and spring-beans, which was enough until now...)
I don't think its the groovy, ruby staff -
thanx a lot in advance,

[Andreas Senft]

This is only debug output and indicates no error. As others already found that to be disturbing, the stacktrace logging will be removed in RC1.

Hello,

but my testprogram terminates with an error and the application context
object is not created.
So there has to be a difference to the 2.02 version...

[Costin Leau]

I think some things related to namespace schemas have changed - please see the changelog for more info.

[davidbernard]

As far as I can see this error is cause by items missing from the class path.

The exception should be caught and reports as an inconsistency in the configuration file with some attempt at identifying the missing modules.

In my case the following file cause the following exception until I added spring-jdbc to the class path.

cheers

[delasoul]

Hello again,

after putting everything on the classpath, I still get the same error.
I even changed from dtd to schema in my context xml - no change.
I looked at the code - but this is not really helping me either.
(the namespaceHandler.init() method throws the exception)
Probably somebody else can link the exception from above to the code..

Thanx in advance for any help...

/**
	 * Load the namespace URI -> <code>NamespaceHandler</code> class mappings from the configured
	 * mapping file. Converts the class names into actual class instances and checks that
	 * they implement the <code>NamespaceHandler</code> interface. Pre-instantiates an instance
	 * of each <code>NamespaceHandler</code> and maps that instance to the corresponding
	 * namespace URI.
	 */
	private void initHandlerMappings() {
		Properties mappings = loadMappings();
		this.handlerMappings = new HashMap(mappings.size());
		for (Enumeration en = mappings.propertyNames(); en.hasMoreElements();) {
			String namespaceUri = (String) en.nextElement();
			String className = mappings.getProperty(namespaceUri);
			try {
				Class handlerClass = ClassUtils.forName(className);
				if (!NamespaceHandler.class.isAssignableFrom(handlerClass)) {
					throw new IllegalArgumentException("Class [" + className +
							"] does not implement the NamespaceHandler interface");
				}
				NamespaceHandler namespaceHandler = (NamespaceHandler) BeanUtils.instantiateClass(handlerClass);
				namespaceHandler.init();
				this.handlerMappings.put(namespaceUri, namespaceHandler);
			}
			catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) {
				if (logger.isInfoEnabled()) {
					logger.info("Ignoring handler [" + className + "]: class not found");
				}
