ehcache with Spring. google code xsd file not found

Question

I am using ehcache with Spring. Noticed the below error recently. Also the XSD file is missing now at http://ehcache-spring-annotations.googlecode.com/svn/schema/ehcache-spring/ehcache-spring-1.1.xsd.

Please let me know if there is a workaround to load the XSD locally.

org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; lineNumber: 164; columnNumber: 59; schema_reference.4: Failed to read schema document 'http://ehcache-spring-annotations.googlecode.com/svn/schema/ehcache-spring/ehcache-spring-1.1.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>.

The problem is that the URL you are requesting was served directly from a Google Code source repository. Google announced it was shutting down Google Code in March of last year, and earlier this week Google started actually shutting down its source hosting services.

You'll need to find a new host for that file. e.g. DropBox, GoogleDrive, etc. If you need a copy of the old version, see the archived version at:
