If I remember correctly this happens due to an old version of Spring being pulled in through Maven's dependency mechanism. If you look in WEB-INF/lib on the deployed application (under the target folder if you are using Jetty), are all the versions of Spring jars correct? If not please search the user list on Nabble - this has definitely happened before and solutions have been posted.
