UPDATE:

i modify my beam like this and work (i added conf. for pooling but is not important):

<!-- LDAP config -->

    <bean id="contextSourceTarget" class="org.springframework.ldap.core.support.LdapContextSource">
        <property name="url" value="${ldap.url}" />
        <property name="base" value="${ldap.base}" />
        <property name="userDn" value="${ldap.userDn}" />
        <property name="password" value="${ldap.password}" />
        <property name="pooled" value="false" />
    </bean>

    <bean id="contextSource"
        class="org.springframework.ldap.pool.factory.PoolingContextSource">
        <property name="contextSource" ref="contextSourceTarget" />
    </bean>

    <bean id="ldapTemplate" class="org.springframework.ldap.core.LdapTemplate">
        <constructor-arg ref="contextSource" />
    </bean>

Thank you, this worked to fix the problem similar to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2526687/spring-security-ldap-no-declaration-can-be-found-for-element-ldap-authenticati for me — EpicPandaForce, Jan 29 '15 at 13:21

I guess it's because Pivotal's site is displaying captcha before showing the actual XSD,

see Spring schemaLocation fails when there is no internet connection Pivotal site requires captcha

It depends on whether you get the error in the IDE or in the runtime.

If it's a specialized XML editor you should refer to the documentation of your editor on how to override/specify schema location, if it's in the runtime likely you have to check your project dependencies(pom.xml if it's a maven project).

i have the error in the IDE, if i try to run the project it works. I can ignore it? – DevOps85 Nov 02 '14 at 20:14
what's your IDE? I would check first that it works without internet connection i.e. schamas are fetched corretly from jars. – Boris Treukhov Nov 02 '14 at 20:16
i use Eclipse for IDE – DevOps85 Nov 02 '14 at 20:17
I think you can install that scheme into Eclipse manually https://wiki.eclipse.org/Using_the_XML_Catalog Associate `http://www.springframework.org/schema/ldap/spring-ldap.xsd` with a physical file. – Boris Treukhov Nov 02 '14 at 20:33

Spring uses its own mechanism to get the XSD in classpath library (runtime).

Uses following files

META-INF/spring.handlers (to parse tag xml to object by an Handler)

example of spring-core-3.2.2.jar

http://www.springframework.org/schema/c=org.springframework.beans.factory.xml.SimpleConstructorNamespaceHandler http://www.springframework.org/schema/p=org.springframework.beans.factory.xml.SimplePropertyNamespaceHandler http://www.springframework.org/schema/util=org.springframework.beans.factory.xml.UtilNamespaceHandler

META-INF/spring.schemas (to identify the correct xsd used)

example of spring-core-3.2.2.jar

http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.0.xsd=org/springframework/beans/factory/xml/spring-beans-2.0.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.5.xsd=org/springframework/beans/factory/xml/spring-beans-2.5.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd=org/springframework/beans/factory/xml/spring-beans-3.0.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.1.xsd=org/springframework/beans/factory/xml/spring-beans-3.1.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.2.xsd=org/springframework/beans/factory/xml/spring-beans-3.2.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd=org/springframework/beans/factory/xml/spring-beans-3.2.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/tool/spring-tool-2.0.xsd=org/springframework/beans/factory/xml/spring-tool-2.0.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/tool/spring-tool-2.5.xsd=org/springframework/beans/factory/xml/spring-tool-2.5.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/tool/spring-tool-3.0.xsd=org/springframework/beans/factory/xml/spring-tool-3.0.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/tool/spring-tool-3.1.xsd=org/springframework/beans/factory/xml/spring-tool-3.1.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/tool/spring-tool-3.2.xsd=org/springframework/beans/factory/xml/spring-tool-3.2.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/tool/spring-tool.xsd=org/springframework/beans/factory/xml/spring-tool-3.2.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/spring-util-2.0.xsd=org/springframework/beans/factory/xml/spring-util-2.0.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/spring-util-2.5.xsd=org/springframework/beans/factory/xml/spring-util-2.5.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/spring-util-3.0.xsd=org/springframework/beans/factory/xml/spring-util-3.0.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/spring-util-3.1.xsd=org/springframework/beans/factory/xml/spring-util-3.1.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/spring-util-3.2.xsd=org/springframework/beans/factory/xml/spring-util-3.2.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/spring-util.xsd=org/springframework/beans/factory/xml/spring-util-3.2.xsd

The IDE want resolve the location of the XSD by schemaLocation, for this reason I suggest to remove XSD validation on your Eclipse.

Windows->Preferences->Validation-> "Suspend all validators"

Windows->Preferences->Validation-> "Suspend all validators" no work for me — DevOps85, Nov 03 '14 at 14:11
This practice remove all action of eclipse to perform validation, else in background try to find all resources (XSD). Anyway have you [see this link](http://stackoverflow.com/a/11429419/3364187). — Xstian, Nov 03 '14 at 14:22
