I am getting an exception thrown when i attempt to access my service, i used spring roo to create my spring data jpa repository which generated the file applicationContext-jpa.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans:beans xmlns:beans="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/data/jpa"
  xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd http://www.springframework.org/schema/data/jpa http://www.springframework.org/schema/data/jpa/spring-jpa.xsd">

  <repositories base-package="org.bixin.dugsi" />

</beans:beans>

My applicationContext.xml is in the same directory META-INF/spring/ and i have made sure to include the component-scan

<context:component-scan base-package="org.bixin.dugsi">
    <context:exclude-filter expression=".*_Roo_.*" type="regex"/>
    <context:exclude-filter expression="org.springframework.stereotype.Controller" type="annotation"/>
</context:component-scan>

The test use case in how i am using it, is below:

@RooIntegrationTest(entity = UserAccount.class)
@ContextConfiguration(locations = { "classpath:META-INF/spring/applicationContext.xml" })
public class UserAccountIntegrationTest extends AbstractJUnit4SpringContextTests {


    @PersistenceUnit(unitName = "persistenceUnit")
    private EntityManagerFactory factory;
    PasswordService testsPasswordService = new CustomPasswordService();

    @Autowired
    private AccountSettingsRepository accountSettingsRepository;

    @Autowired
    private AccountService accountService;

    @Test
    public void testAccount(){

        accountService.saveAccountSettings(accountSettings);
        Assert.assertNotNull(accountSettings);
    }

I cant figure out what could be causing this exception, i told it exactly where to find the service implementation and repository. Full stack trace is below:

Check that your applicationContext-jpa.xml is loaded by your main context.

To do that, check that your applicationContext.xml contains:

<import resource="applicationContext-jpa.xml"/>
