I'm new to Spring and I wanted to set it up using Velocity. Therefore I created in Eclipse Kepler with the Spring Tool Suite Extension a new Spring Project, a new Spring MVC Project. Then I added org.apache.velocity
to the new Spring Project with the version 1.7. After that I added the following lines to my servlet-context.xml
, according to http://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/3.2.x/javadoc-api/org/springframework/web/servlet/view/velocity/VelocityConfigurer.html
<beans:bean id="velocityConfig"
class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.velocity.VelocityConfigurer">
<beans:property name="resourceLoaderPath" value="/WEB-INF/views/" />
</beans:bean>
<!-- View resolvers can also be configured with ResourceBundles or XML files.
If you need different view resolving based on Locale, you have to use the
resource bundle resolver. -->
<beans:bean id="viewResolver"
class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.velocity.VelocityViewResolver">
<beans:property name="cache" value="true" />
<beans:property name="prefix" value="" />
<beans:property name="suffix" value=".jsp" />
</beans:bean>
Then everything is fine. But if I change the Version of the Springframework in the pom.xml from 3.1.1.RELEASE to 3.2.4.RELEASE, I get the following error shown in Eclipse:
No setter found for property 'resourceLoaderPath' in class 'org.springframework.web.servlet.view.velocity.VelocityConfigurer'
I have even setted up a new Virtual Machine with Ubuntu to test it - I get the same error everywhere. Do you need any more files from me?
The output of mvn dependency:tree doesn't looks suspicious in my opinion, does it?

Apache Tomcat/7.0.47
Velocity support has been removed as of Spring Framework 5 and therefore our support as well (even deprecated in earlier version). As far as I can see there is no spring support in Velocity 2 so you may want to ask that to them first. Dropped support: Portlet, Velocity, JasperReports, XMLBeans, JDO, Guava.
Velocity is a template engine from the Apache Software Foundation that can work with normal text files, SQL, XML, Java code and many other types. In this article we're going to focus on utilizing Velocity with a typical Spring MVC web application.
Apache Velocity first released in April 2001, is a Java-based template engine that provides a template language to reference objects defined in Java code. It aims to ensure clean separation between the presentation tier and business tiers in a Web application (the model–view–controller design pattern).
This is now clearly a classpath issue.
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/springframework/ui/velocity/VelocityEngineFactory
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.springframework.ui.velocity.VelocityEngineFactory
You are missing the spring-context-support
jar which contains the VelocityEngineFactory
class.
