A nice list of Maven Dependencies exists at   Spring Site The major artifacts needed are    spring-security-core Spring-security-web spring-security-config

Add the following dependency in your pom xml file and if you are using IntelliJ then add the same jars to WEB-INF- lib folder     path is Project Structure -  Atrifacts -  Select jar from Available Elements pane and double click  It will add to respective folder   lt dependency gt       lt groupId gt org springframework security lt  groupId gt       lt artifactId gt spring-security-config lt  artifactId gt       lt version gt 3 0 1 RELEASE lt  version gt   lt  dependency gt

James Jithin - such exception can appear also when you have two different versions of beans and security schema in xsi schemaLocation  It s the case in the snippet you have pasted    xsi schemaLocation  http   www springframework org schema beans     http   www springframework org schema beans spring-beans-3 0 xsd     http   www springframework org schema security    http   www springframework org schema security spring-security-3 1 xsd    In my case changing them both to 3 1 solved the problem

if adding dependencies haven t solved your problem  create WAR archive again  In my case  I used obsolete WAR file without security-web and security-conf jars

I needed to add an additional Maven dependency        lt dependency gt           lt groupId gt org springframework security lt  groupId gt           lt artifactId gt spring-security-config lt  artifactId gt           lt version gt 3 0 1 RELEASE lt  version gt       lt  dependency gt

If you already have all dependencies in your pom  try  1  Remove all downloaded jars form your maven repository folder for  org- springframework   2  Make a maven clean build

I have encountered the very similar problem today  For some reason IntelliJ IDEA haven t included Spring Security jar files while deploying the application  I think I should agree with the majority of posters here

The solution is definitely  spring-security-config  not in your WEB-INF lib   For my project in Eclipse using Maven  it turned out not all of the maven dependencies were being copied to WEB-INF lib  Looking at Project -  Properties -  Deployment Assembly  only some of the jars were being copied   To fix this  I clicked  Add   then  Java Build Path Entires  and finally  Maven Dependencies    I have been searching SO and the web for the last hour looking for this  so hopefully this helps someone else

I got this error while deploying to Virgo   The solution was to add this to my bundle imports   org springframework transaction config version   3 1 3 2      I noticed in the Spring jars under META-INF there is a spring schemas and a spring handlers section  and the class that they point to  in this case org springframework transaction config TxNamespaceHandler  must be imported

I had the same error message while trying to deploy the application  In Spring  the security configuration xml can be a different one from applicationContext xml  usually applicationContext-security xml inside WEB-INF folder  The changes to be applied are for web xml   lt context-param gt       lt param-name gt contextConfigLocation lt  param-name gt       lt param-value gt           WEB-INF applicationContext xml          WEB-INF applicationContext-security xml      lt  param-value gt   lt  context-param gt    And the applicationContext xml would look like    lt  xml version  1 0  encoding  UTF-8   gt   lt beans beans xmlns  http   www springframework org schema security      xmlns beans  http   www springframework org schema beans      xmlns xsi  http   www w3 org 2001 XMLSchema-instance      xsi schemaLocation  http   www springframework org schema beans http   www springframework org schema beans spring-beans-3 0 xsd                         http   www springframework org schema security http   www springframework org schema security spring-security-3 1 xsd  gt        lt http auto-config  true  gt           lt intercept-url pattern   login jsp  access  IS AUTHENTICATED ANONYMOUSLY   gt           lt intercept-url pattern       access  ROLE USER    gt           lt form-login login-page  login jsp   gt       lt  http gt    lt  beans beans gt    Even after you make these changes  the namespace error will exist  To get rid of this  add the following jar files to the WEB-INF lib and then to the library    spring-security-acl-3 1 0 M2 jar spring-security-config-3 1 0 M2 jar spring-security-core-3 1 0 M2 jar spring-security-taglibs-3 1 0 M2 jar spring-security-web-3 1 0 M2 jar

I struggled with this for a while and none of these answers helped  Thanks to the comment from user64141 I realised that there was a problem with the spring handlers files   I am using the Shade plugin for Maven to generate a fat jar  and all the spring handlers  and spring schemas  files were being overwritten by each Spring dependency   The Maven site covers this exact problem and how to solve it by appending the files together instead   http   maven apache org plugins maven-shade-plugin examples resource-transformers html AppendingTransformer
