Spring context getting destroyed

[nitin.vashi]

Hi Everyone,

I am facing a strange problem while starting my spring application.

Whats happening is that Spring apparently automatically destroying the application context at the startup of the application.

If I see the server startup logs, this is the sequence :

1.building hibernate session factory.
2. destroying singletons in [DefaultListableBeanFactoryxxx] (and then list of all the singleton beans in my application)
3. closing hibernate session.
4.context initialization failed.

Below is the snippet from the actual server logs :

[12/14/10 9:05:09:602 EST] 00000018 SessionFactor I org.hibernate.impl.SessionFactoryImpl <init> building session factory

Just to let you know, that the 'mailSender' property is there and there is no issue with this property setting at all, that that is why destroy of spring singleton beans right before this error message seems to be a problem to me.

Environment: Spring 2.5
Websphere 6.1

This is a showstopper and looking for a quick guidance on it.
Any help/guidance on this will be highly appreciated.

Thanks,
Nitin.

There does seem to be some initialization error related to the JavaMailSenderImpl defined in the applicationContext.xml file. Any chance you can post that file or the part that relates to the config of the mailSender bean?
