org springframework beans factory NoSuchBeanDefinitionException No bean named customerService is defined

Question

I need help fixing this error I get when trying to deploy my web application into tomcat  Why isn t the customerService bean being defined  Am I missing something in my web xml or do I have to map the customerService somehow  I am using annotations for mapping  any help would be much appreciated  Here is the error log entry from the localhost log         Error   SEVERE  Exception sending context

Please make sure that your applicationContext xml file is loaded by specifying it in your web xml file        lt context-param gt           lt param-name gt contextConfigLocation lt  param-name gt           lt param-value gt  WEB-INF applicationContext xml lt  param-value gt       lt  context-param gt

Just another possibility  Spring initializes bean by type not by name if you don t define bean with a name  which is ok if you use it by its type   Producer    Service public void FooServiceImpl implements FooService     Consumer    Autowired private FooService fooService    or   Autowired private void setFooService FooService fooService       but not ok if you use it by name   ApplicationContext ctx   new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext  applicationContext xml    ctx getBean  fooService      It would complain  org springframework beans factory NoSuchBeanDefinitionException  No bean named  fooService  is defined In this case  assigning name to  Service  fooService   would make it work

By reading your exception   It s sure that you forgot to autowire customerService  You should autowire your customerservice    make following changes in your controller class   Controller public class CustomerController        Autowired     private Customerservice customerservice        other code            Again your service implementation class   write    Service public class CustomerServiceImpl implements CustomerService        Autowired     private CustomerDAO customerDAO        other code             add transactional methods     If you are using hibernate make necessary changes in your applicationcontext xml file configuration of session factory is needed    you should autowire sessionFactory set method in your DAO mplementation  please find samle application context     lt  xml  version  1 0  encoding  UTF-8   gt   lt beans xmlns  http   www springframework org schema beans      xmlns xsi  http   www w3 org 2001 XMLSchema-instance      xmlns aop  http   www springframework org schema aop      xmlns context  http   www springframework org schema context      xmlns jee  http   www springframework org schema jee      xmlns lang  http   www springframework org schema lang      xmlns p  http   www springframework org schema p      xmlns tx  http   www springframework org schema tx      xmlns util  http   www springframework org schema util      xmlns mvc  http   www springframework org schema mvc      xsi schemaLocation  http   www springframework org schema beans http   www springframework org schema beans spring-beans xsd         http   www springframework org schema aop http   www springframework org schema aop spring-aop xsd         http   www springframework org schema context http   www springframework org schema context spring-context xsd         http   www springframework org schema jee http   www springframework org schema jee spring-jee xsd         http   www springframework org schema lang http   www springframework org schema lang spring-lang xsd         http   www springframework org schema tx http   www springframework org schema tx spring-tx xsd         http   www springframework org schema util http   www springframework org schema util spring-util xsd         http   www springframework org schema mvc http   www springframework org schema mvc spring-mvc xsd  gt        lt context annotation-config   gt       lt context component-scan base-package  com sparkle    gt       lt  -- Configures the  Controller programming model -- gt       lt mvc annotation-driven   gt        lt bean id  viewResolver  class  org springframework web servlet view InternalResourceViewResolver               p prefix   WEB-INF jsp   p suffix   jsp  p order  0    gt        lt bean id  messageSource          class  org springframework context support ReloadableResourceBundleMessageSource  gt           lt property name  basename  value  classpath messages    gt           lt property name  defaultEncoding  value  UTF-8    gt       lt  bean gt       lt  --  lt bean id  propertyConfigurer          class  org springframework beans factory config PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer          p location   WEB-INF jdbc properties    gt  -- gt         lt bean id  propertyConfigurer          class  org springframework beans factory config PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer  gt       lt property name  locations  gt                    lt list gt               lt value gt  WEB-INF jdbc properties lt  value gt                      lt  list gt           lt  property gt            lt  bean gt           lt bean id  dataSource          class  org springframework jdbc datasource DriverManagerDataSource          p driverClassName    jdbc driverClassName           p url    jdbc databaseurl   p username    jdbc username           p password    jdbc password     gt         lt bean id  sessionFactory          class  org springframework orm hibernate3 LocalSessionFactoryBean  gt           lt property name  dataSource  ref  dataSource    gt           lt property name  configLocation  gt               lt value gt classpath hibernate cfg xml lt  value gt           lt  property gt           lt property name  configurationClass  gt               lt value gt org hibernate cfg AnnotationConfiguration lt  value gt           lt  property gt           lt property name  hibernateProperties  gt               lt props gt                   lt prop key  hibernate dialect  gt   jdbc dialect  lt  prop gt                   lt prop key  hibernate show sql  gt true lt  prop gt               lt  props gt           lt  property gt       lt  bean gt        lt tx annotation-driven   gt        lt bean id  transactionManager  class  org springframework orm hibernate3 HibernateTransactionManager            p sessionFactory-ref  sessionFactory   gt     lt  beans gt    note that i am using jdbc properties file for jdbc url and driver specification

You will have to annotate your service with  Service since you have said I am using annotations for mapping
