For some reason, Spring is not recognizing ShiroFilterFactoryBean as a factory bean. It seems likely that there is a classpath issue here (ShiroFilterFactoryBean's super class being in a different classloader from the ApplicationContext). Do the spring jars exist in more than one place in your classpath? (war, tomcat itself, eclipse?) Is there anything interesting about the way that you're running tomcat?
It looks like a classpath issue, but given my lack of recent experience with tomcat, eclipse, and spring, that's probably as much assistance as I can give. -Jared On Tue 15 May 2012 04:24:16 PM CDT, aliasdhacker wrote: > I have, thank you.
