I'm running into an issue with the Spring IDE release 2.6.0 under Eclipse 3.6 SR 1
Error occured processing XML 'Could not instantiate bean class
[org.springframework.ide.eclipse.beans.core.internal.model.BeansConfig$ToolingFriendlyBeanDefinitionDocumentReader]:
Constructor threw exception; nested exception is
org.apache.commons.logging.LogConfigurationException: User-specified log class
'org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger' cannot be found or is not useable.'.
See Error Log for more details
I dumped my entire eclipse environment and re-installed to see if it would fix it and it didn't. Not sure if this is a classpath problem or something specifically related to the SpringIDE configuration.
Any help would be appreciated.
you're hitting a bug in Spring IDE. See the following JIRA for more details:
https://issuetracker.springsource.com/browse/STS-1691
We are going to publish a patch for this issue soon. Check the JIRA for when it is available. Alternatively install an upcoming nightly build.
