I've been getting the same exception. To work around it, I've instantiated the DefaultServiceMixClient outside of spring. Obviously, this is less than ideal.

I am embedding ServiceMix (1.0.1 release) in a web application (Tomcat 5.0.x). We already have the Spring framework up and running and I have attempted to use the "pure Spring" method to configure ServiceMix (I used Pure Spring as I understand that the extended stuff may require a development version of Spring?) I have used the following configuration to attempt to instantiate a "client" bean for use with the ServiceMix client within the web application... but I get the exception included below. I should note that all libraries including spring, ServiceMix and it's dependencies are in the tomcat/common/lib directory so I shouldn't be having any class loading issues.. Spring is embedded using the webapp Listener as you can see in the exception... Any help would be appreciated. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE beans PUBLIC "-//SPRING//DTD BEAN//EN" "http://www.springframework.org/dtd/spring-beans.dtd";> <beans> <bean id="jbi" class="org.servicemix.jbi.container.SpringJBIContainer"> <property name="componentNames"> <list> <value>receiver</value> </list> </property> </bean> <bean id="receiver" class="test.servicemix.components.pojo.TrackingReceiver"/> <bean id="receiverServiceName" class="javax.xml.namespace.QName"> <constructor-arg value="http://testorg.com/test/"/> <constructor-arg value="receiver"/> </bean> <bean id="client" class="org.servicemix.client.DefaultServiceMixClient"> <constructor-arg ref="jbi" /> </bean> </beans> -------Exception --------------- 2005-09-04 17:44:16,708 [main] INFO org.springframework.beans.factory.support.DefaultListableBeanFactory - Destroying singletons in factory {org.springframework.beans.factory.support.DefaultListableBeanFactory defining beans [jbi,receiver,receiverServiceName,client];
