The solution I saw on here was to use javax.servlet, but I've already got it in my pom.xml.

The beam that's throwing the issue is..

Thanks,

It shows as an error in my project and when I try to run my application, web.xml added — David, Jan 24 '12 at 11:30
@david99world within eclipse ? Or when you run maven on the command line ? Run yr app, do you mean in standalone tomcat or within eclipse. — NimChimpsky, Jan 24 '12 at 11:32
Sorry I mean within Eclipse but it's running on Tomcat. Maven installs the libs fine — David, Jan 24 '12 at 11:36

spring-security-web is an optional dependency of spring-security-config, so that you need to declare it in your pom.xml as well.

Also, you didn't configure authentication method - none of <form-login>, <http-basic> or auto-config = "true" are present. See 2.2.2 A Minimal Configuration.

Hi, I added org.springframework.security spring-security-web ${org.springframework-version} but I still get the same error, any ideas? – David Jan 24 '12 at 11:30

Within eclipse you have to update your project properties and config, specifically the deployment assembly, build path and run configuration.

It sounds like you are not including the maven dependies in your run configuration, add them.

This might be useful.
