Spring Security : configuration error

Question

I am not able to solve this problem that I have XSD version above 4 then why there is still conflict?

I am using Spring JARs and all of them have version 4 or above and still getting error.

Following is XSD for spring-security.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:security="http://www.springframework.org/schema/security"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/security http://www.springframework.org/schema/security/spring-security-4.1.xsd">
    <security:http auto-config="true">  <!-- ////this line holds error/////-->
        <security:intercept-url pattern="/"
            access="hasRole('ROLE_ADMIN')" />
        <security:form-login login-page="/login"
            default-target-url="/" authentication-failure-url="/loginerror" />
        <security:logout logout-success-url="/logout" />
        <security:csrf disabled="true" />
    </security:http>
    <security:authentication-manager>
        <security:authentication-provider>
            <security:user-service>
                <security:user name="admin" authorities="ROLE_ADMIN"
                    password="admin" />
            </security:user-service>
        </security:authentication-provider>
    </security:authentication-manager>
</beans> 

and following is the error:

Multiple annotations found at this line: - Configuration problem: You cannot use a spring-security-2.0.xsd or spring-security-3.0.xsd schema with Spring Security 3.1. Please update your schema declarations to the 3.1 schema. Offending resource: file [C:/Documents and Settings/Administrator/My Documents/Google Drive/spring_workspace/spring security_demo/WebContent/WEB-INF/security-context.xml] - You cannot use a spring-security-2.0.xsd or spring-security-3.0.xsd schema with Spring Security 3.1. Please update your schema declarations to the 3.1 schema.

and this is my schema for dispatcher servlet:

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:mvc="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc"
    xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc/spring-mvc-4.1.xsd
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-4.1.xsd
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/context http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-4.1.xsd">

First I thought I have conflicts in my both mentioned .xsd files but now both ' .xsd' files have same schema.

Edit: Event details

How to solve that?

Answer 1

Your exception says

You should not use 4.1 xsd,since your spring security version is 3.1

In below line you have mentioned spring security version as 4.1,it should be 3.1

 http://www.springframework.org/schema/security http://www.springframework.org/schema/security/spring-security-4.1.xsd">

Two ways to solve

1. Change to http://www.springframework.org/schema/security/spring-security-3.1.xsd
2. Remove version so that spring will take automatically http://www.springframework.org/schema/security/spring-security.xsd

Update : Add use-expressions attribute to http.Since you are using expression hasRole('Role_Admin') you have to provide this.

<security:http auto-config="true" use-expressions="true">
