You need to change your controller - replace the line

public PersonneMetierImpl personneMetier;

with

public IPersonneMetier personneMetier;

(that is, use interface instead of an implementation).

In some cases (including yours) Spring doesn't use a bean (PersonneMetierImpl) as-is, but wraps it in a proxy. In this case it is a JDK dynamic proxy, which cannot be cast to PersonneMetierImpl, but only to IPersonneMetier (JDK proxies are interface-based). And that is the reason why Spring cannot autowire field PersonneMetierImpl personneMetier.

Oh, and for the same reason (and also because that's what interfaces are for) you should change PersonneMetierImpl class - replace private PersonneDaoImpl personneDao with private IPersonneDao personneDao.

just a note: Spring does not create proxy because "a bean implements one more more interfaces". Proxies are created for other purpose, AOP being one of the most common reasons (there are other) – Adrian Shum Nov 19 '15 at 01:25
@AdrianShum Yes, that probably was my bad choice of words. What I meant to say, "in some cases" Spring wants to create a proxy. And it prefers to create a JDK proxy, but it can do it _only if_ that bean implements one or more interfaces; otherwise it creates a CGLIB proxy. And a side note: one can instruct Spring to create CGLIB proxies by default ( [Proxying mechanisms](https://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/current/spring-framework-reference/html/aop.html#aop-proxying) ). – Roman Nov 19 '15 at 02:02

ahha, got what you mean :) I think the sentence can be mis-interpreted in a different meaning. Will be good to adjust your answer accordingly to your comment :) – Adrian Shum Nov 19 '15 at 03:04

The controller is not a true representation of the class but rather a proxy generated by Spring. This will implement all the interfaces of the class however so you could use

@Autowired
public IPersonneDao personneMetier;

instead of

@Autowired
public PersonneMetierImpl personneMetier;

This error can also appear as a bug for IntelliJ IDEA users. Eclipse and java for VS Code do not produce this problem.
