  • You can see here `java.lang.NullPointerException` that your Spring context is misconfigured. – Boris the Spider Apr 22 '14 at 19:59
  • I shall modify this part? contextConfigLocation classpath*:/META-INF/persistence-context.xml, classpath*:/META-INF/service-context.xml, classpath*:/META-INF/web-context.xml – evilkorona Apr 22 '14 at 20:03
  • Not sure what your syntax is, but I don't believe that `classpath*/...` is valid. Try with `classpath:/META-INF/*context.xml`. – Boris the Spider Apr 22 '14 at 20:07
  • Thst is valid, i used it before, but i saw an error in my web-context.xml where it says that doesn't found a bean. – evilkorona Apr 22 '14 at 20:19
  • Your issue is around NPE for `ClassLoader` for `SpringProperties`. Here is the same: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22864931. Let's try to understand why `ClassLoader` is `null` from that static initializer. – Artem Bilan Apr 22 '14 at 20:26
  • what is your spring version? – bhdrk Apr 22 '14 at 20:31
  • It doesn't matter. Seems for me the Spring bug, because: http://stackoverflow.com/a/1921281/2756547. What does the `bootstrap class loader` mean ? – Artem Bilan Apr 22 '14 at 20:32
  • Where are your spring jars (e.g. `spring-core`) located relative to Tomcat ? – Artem Bilan Apr 22 '14 at 20:39
  • My spring version is 3.0.5.RELEASE, and i have the spring jars (of differnet versions) in the server tomcat classpath (server double right click -> open launch configration -> classpath in bootstrap entries) – evilkorona Apr 22 '14 at 22:18
  • Here is the code http://tip-dorrego.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ – evilkorona Apr 22 '14 at 22:25
  • Well, can you move Spring jars somewhere else, not `bootstrap` classloader ? – Artem Bilan Apr 23 '14 at 07:58
  • BTW, the issue is fixed now in Spring: https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-11721 – Artem Bilan Apr 23 '14 at 21:53
