Parsing XML Document From Servletcontext Resource Solved

parsing xml document from servletcontext resource getting a few errors in the console which I will post below. I am using eclipse and cleaned the project, refreshed the target, cleaned the tomcat server so chasing or anything of that nature is not the issue.

Solution

if you want to just load the files using ContextLoaderListener, remove the dispatcher servlet and that should work fine or use the below method to load the final.

<servlet>
<servlet-name>offers</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
    <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
    <param-value> classpath:com/learnspring/config/daoContext.xml
        classpath:com/learnspring/config/offersService.xml</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
