Exception on starting with spring security

[lmk]

Hi all,

I try to use spring security taking inspiration from the spring-security-samples-contacts application,
I get the exception below when tomcat starts:

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: Unexpected exception parsing XML document from ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/applicationContext-security.xml]; nested exception is java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.springframework.beans.factory.support.BeanDefinitionBuilder.rootBeanDefinition(Ljava/lang/String;)Lorg/springframework/beans/factory/support/BeanDefinitionBuilder;

thanks a lot!

Seems to me, that you're

1. Missing a jar file
2. have an incorrect version jar file.

[lmk]

the list of dependencies:

aopalliance-1.0
spring-beans-2.0.8
spring-context-2.0.8
spring-core-2.0.8
spring-web-2.0.8
spring-security-taglibs-2.0.8

wich one I forget?

thanks luke,

I dont found an accurate response anywhere.
the sample webapp contains : spring-mvc,spring-core,spring-core-tiger-spring-security-acl,spring-dao,spring-jdbc...
so,
we dont need all of theme if we have just to test a basic authentication and compare 2 security tools.

best regards!
