Why am I still getting this?
Exception in thread "main" org.springframework.beans.factory.parsing.BeanDefinitionParsingException: Configuration problem: Failed to import bean definitions from relative location [../beans/Character.xml]
Offending resource: class path resource [spring/config/beanLocations.xml]; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.parsing.BeanDefinitionParsingException: Configuration problem: Unable to locate Spring NamespaceHandler for XML schema namespace [http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx]
Offending resource: class path resource [spring/beans/Character.xml]
at org.springframework.beans.factory.parsing.FailFastProblemReporter.error(FailFastProblemReporter.java:72)
I've read many post about this issue, and configured my xml-s according to them.
My offending xml looks like this:
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:tx="http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx"

http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx/spring-tx.xsd">
<!-- Character Data Access Object -->
<bean id="characterDao" class="com.got.common.dao.CharacterDao" >

</bean>
<tx:annotation-driven/>
<bean id="transactionManager" class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate5.HibernateTransactionManager">
<property name="sessionFactory" ref="sessionFactory"/>
</bean>
</beans>
Spring-tx is included in my pom.xml:

I'm not sure that aop has to be included as well, but it's there. What's the problem with this namespace? I want to stop pulling my hair out so please tell me the reason this namespace can not be located.
