Class 'org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver' not found

Question

I'm getting the below error.

Multiple annotations found at this line:

Class 'org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver' not found

Class 'org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver' not found [config set: testSystem/web-context]

Since I am new to Spring and Maven structure. I am not able to get the correct solution.

Could anyone help me with this ?

This is how my pom.xml looks like.

Take a look in your project, where you have your maven dependencies. It there spring-webmvc jar? If you look into its packages are you able to find and open InternalResourceViewResolver class? — gipinani, Jan 12 '14 at 21:03
I have **spring-webmvc-4.0.0.RELEASE.jar** however, it does not contain **InternalResourceViewResolver** class. Please suggest — Anand Chavan, Jan 12 '14 at 21:21
If you want to use the class org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver you must have it in your classpath.. Now I'm not able to find your correct jar, but if till tomorrow you not find a solution I will try to help you! — gipinani, Jan 12 '14 at 21:27
A simple thing you can do if you are using eclipse: go to your servlet config and while pressing CTRL click onorg.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver this should open your class if your class is in your classpath — gipinani, Jan 12 '14 at 21:33
Thanks! This suggestion gave me a hint at least. This has been found in **spring-web-4.0.0.RELEASE-sources.jar** — Anand Chavan, Jan 12 '14 at 21:34
But if you have 4.0 version while you declare a 3.2 in your pom I suggest you to take a look in your pom editor in order to find some possible version mismatch — gipinani, Jan 12 '14 at 21:37
Yes, that was the only problem. I have replaced 3.2 with 4.0.0-RELEASE in property. However, now the only error remains is for below class - org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.LocalSessionFactoryBean I have the dependency - org.springframework spring-orm 4.0.0.RELEASE However, the file isn't getting to my libraries for spring-orm-4.0.0.RELEASE.jar Could you please help? Thanks! — Anand Chavan, Jan 12 '14 at 21:41

I thought so there should be some refreshing problem, you have to clean your project, maven clean your module and clean your server and restart your IDE, hope this works for you my friend

Girish lalwani - I have refreshed the project/ cleaned the project multiple times. before posting the question. However its not working. I tried it after your suggestion too. Please help if you have any other suggestion. – Anand Chavan Jan 12 '14 at 20:56
@anandc can u post your whole pom there, so it will be easy to debug for me my friend as it seems you have included the dependency for spring-webmvc and still you got Class 'org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver' not found – Girish Jan 12 '14 at 21:00
Thanks dear for being quick responsive - The only missing thing is the properties, please have a look 1.6 3.2.0.RELEASE 1.6.10 1.6.6 4.1.9.Final 1.7.2 4.11 2.2.9 – Anand Chavan Jan 12 '14 at 21:04
In the servlet-context - its throwing the class not found for all of the below - org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver org.springframework.context.support.ReloadableResourceBundleMessageSource org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.LocalSessionFactoryBean org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.HibernateTransactionManager – Anand Chavan Jan 12 '14 at 21:08
@anandc can be some version mismatch, please try this token 3.0.0.RELEASE in place of yours – Girish Jan 12 '14 at 21:22
@anandc if this works for you my friend please upvote me or right click on my answer, so it will be helpful for others at stackoverflow my friend – Girish Jan 12 '14 at 21:43

My error appear after rename project.

Just comment some dependency in pom.xml then Maven Update project. After that, comment out and Maven Update project again.
