            </properties>
        </profile>
</profiles>

rg.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: Invalid bean definition with name '<Class name>' defined in class path resource [applicationContext.xml]: Circular placeholder reference 'repoManager' in property definitions

  • Your exception is complaining about a "Circular placeholder reference". So maybe this answer will help you. https://stackoverflow.com/a/61232758/7454336 I don't think that this is a problem with different profiles. – Thomas Meinhart Mar 04 '22 at 11:40
