I received outstanding guidance yesterday on integrating wicket-spring into my application and combined with the write-up along with a lot of other similar articles/blogs I found online, I'm confident I'm on the right track. I have encountered an error that has me a little mystified and was hoping someone could help shed some light. I'm getting the following exception when I attempt to start Tomcat within Eclipse:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: bean of type [org.apache.wicket.protocol.http.WebApplication] not found Full stack trace below. Despite having defined my WebApplication bean in the applicationContext.xml, this exception appears at start-up, leading me to believe that it cannot find my applicationContext.xml configuration, though I feel that I'm pointing Spring and Wicket in the right direction with the following: <context-param> <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name> <param-value>classpath:applicationContext.xml</param-value> </context-param> <listener> <listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener-class> </listener> I have also adjusted my filter to leverage SpringWebApplicationFactory as follows: <filter> <filter-name>wicket.wicketFilter</filter-name> <filter-class>org.apache.wicket.protocol.http.WicketFilter</filter-class> <init-param> <param-name>applicationFactoryClassName</param-name> <param-value>org.apache.wicket.spring.SpringWebApplicationFactory</param-value> </init-param> </filter> <filter-mapping> <filter-name>wicket.wicketFilter</filter-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> </filter-mapping> And in my applicationContext.xml, my WebApplication bean has been defined: <bean id="wicketApplication" class="com.oa.frontoffice.FrontOfficeApp" /> Lastly, I have the following in my init() method on the WebApplication object: getComponentInstantiationListeners().add(new SpringComponentInjector(this)); Has anyone encountered this exception before who can offer me some advice on where to start digging?

Then you probably don't use wicket-spring. Or you store your app context in a Wicket component, e.g., a page. The "official" documentation is https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/WICKET/spring.html IMHO it's problematic because it tells you first about things you don't want to use. There's a chapter in the new free Wicket guide, but it's very basic as well.
