Spring security3 "You cannot use a spring-security-2.0.xsd schema"

Question

I keep getting...

    org.springframework.beans.factory.parsing.BeanDefinitionParsingException: 
Configuration problem: You cannot use a spring-security-2.0.xsd schema with Spring Security 3.0. Please update your schema declarations to the 3.0 schema.
    Offending resource: ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/spring/root-context.xml]

My root-context.xml is...

<beans:beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/security"

from this I can't seem to derive what the problem is as the schema is > 3.0 and both of the spring and spring security schemas, anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

David

Answer 1

The schema you are pointing to is spring-security-3.1.xsd, but the pom.xml declares spring-security-config-3.0.1.RELEASE. You should update your version of Spring Security or downgrade the version of the spring security namespace. Note when changing versions ensure that all Spring versions match and all Spring Security versions match (this includes transitive dependencies) otherwise you will get strange errors.

Answer 2

@Rob Winch is absolutely right, there is example of updated spring-security.xml file:

<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-3.1.xsd
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/security
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/security/spring-security-3.1.xsd">

    <http auto-config="true">
        <intercept-url pattern="/welcome*" access="ROLE_USER" />
    </http>

    <authentication-manager>
        <authentication-provider>
            <user-service>
                <user name="user" password="user" authorities="ROLE_USER" />
            </user-service>
        </authentication-provider>
    </authentication-manager>

</beans:beans>

Hope it helps.
