Question

I have been trying to use @Resource and @Service annotations in Spring as follows.

Here is my service class

@Service("personService")
public class PersonService {
    protected static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger("PersonService");
    // service methods here
}

And my controller class here

@Controller
public class PersonController {

    protected static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger("controller");

    @Resource(name="personService")
    private PersonService personService;

    // controller methods
}

When I deploy this application on the jboss server, I am getting following error.

javax.ejb.EJBException: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.demoApp.service.PersonService from

When I don’t use these annotations the applications runs properly.

Answer 1

Does it have to do with
<context:annotation-config/> or <context:component-scan> in your application context xml?
