Answer 1

Found it on another thread that solved my problem... was using an internet connection less network.

In that case copy the xsd files from the url and place it next to the beans.xml file and change the xsi:schemaLocation as under:

 <beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" 
   xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans 
spring-beans-3.1.xsd">

Answer 2

Add this code ..It helped me

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" 
         xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
         xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context" 
         xmlns:aop="http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop" 
         xsi:schemaLocation="
         http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans 
           classpath:/org/springframework/beans/factory/xml/spring-beans-3.0.xsd 
         http://www.springframework.org/schema/context 
         classpath:/org/springframework/context/config/spring-context-3.0.xsd
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop 
        classpath:/org/springframework/aop/config/spring-aop-3.0.xsd
         ">      
     </beans>

Answer 3

For me the problem was my file encoding...I used powershell to write the xml file and this was not UTF-8 ... It seems that spring requires UTF8 because as soon as I changed the encoding (using notepad++) it works again without any errors

Now i Use in my powershellscript the following line to output the xml file in UTF-8: [IO.File]::WriteAllLines($fname_dataloader_xml_config_file, $dataloader_configfile)

instead of using the redirection operator > to create my file

Note: I didn't put any xml parameters in my beans tag and it works

Try Using this- Spring 4.0. Working

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
       xmlns:p="http://www.springframework.org/schema/p"
       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
       xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context" 
       xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans                                               http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
       http://www.springframework.org/schema/context 
       http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context.xsd">
