Answer 1

You are missing Context (http://www.springframework.org/schema/context) namespace there :

<beans:beans xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc       http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc/spring-mvc-3.1.xsd   
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd   
http://www.springframework.org/schema/util http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/spring-util-3.1.xsd 


http://www.springframework.org/schema/context http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context.xsd">

Add the last line from this code.

Answer 2

Yes, you must add

http://www.springframework.org/schema/context

Before

http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-3.0.xsd

So it looks like :

<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"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/context
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-3.0.xsd">

For All time Sake not just simply copy and past. But.

First see that which comment you used in your xml file.Let say your xml contains the following...

1. <context:component-scan base-package="com.spring.study" />
2. <context:annotation-config/>
3. <mvc:annotation-driven />

Then before you copy and past code see that what your really need in the header <beans:beans section ...

So ,Do it like this which satisfies the above configuration setting and

Make sure you clean and build every time after you change your file !!

     <?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:mvc="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc"
    xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.2.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/task
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/task/spring-task-3.2.xsd
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc/spring-mvc-3.2.xsd
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.2.xsd
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/context
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-3.2.xsd">

    <mvc:annotation-driven />
    <context:component-scan base-package="com.spring.study" />
    <bean
        class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver">
        <property name="prefix" value="/WEB-INF/jsp/" />
        <property name="suffix" value=".jsp" />
    </bean>

</beans>

Cheers! Dman!

Add the context namespace declaration to the beans tag definition in the application context file

<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"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/context
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-3.0.xsd">  

Answer 5

You should add xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context" into your beans xml.
