I am using Spring MVC, Spring security and deploying in Apache Tomcat 1.7x. I notice that Web Application context is getting loaded twice. Please let me know what is wrong with my configuration.
I have referred below posts but could not identify the difference Why Spring Context is loaded twice?, Spring MVC web app: application context starts twice
INFO ContextLoader:273 - Root WebApplicationContext: initialization started
Below is my web.xml
