Problem reading spring-context-2.1.xsd

[sbirnie]

I'm upgrading my app from 1.4 to 1.5, and I'm trying to add in Annotations. I saw that 2.1 M2 had @autowired and @Resources, so I was going to try to use them.

Right now I'm only trying out @autowired. I can't seem to get the compiler to recognize @Resources. That's another issue that I'll tackle after this.

In the reference manual (p.85, section 3.10), it says to set up the context XML like so:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.0.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/context
http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-2.1.xsd">
<context:annotation-config/>
</beans>

When I tried to start the app I get this error:

org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: schema_reference.4: Failed to read schema document 'http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-2.1.xsd', because 1) could not find the document; 2) the document could not be read; 3) the root element of the document is not <xsd:schema>.

I went to my browser and put in the xsd and it came up fine. Does anyone have any ideas?

The @Resource annotation is included in common-annotations.jar. This seems to be a fairly common question as I just replied to 2 other posts ...

As far as the parser error, can you check if you have *only* spring 2.1 on the classpath?
