I'm using Spring-MVC (4.2.5) and Spring-Security (4.1.3) to develop a web application. I begin to have problems when I tried to incorporate the latter in my mvc project.

Currently, after several attempts, I get this error in my tomee server at localhost:8080/BetEx/

HTTP Status 500 - Filter execution threw an exception

type Exception report

message Filter execution threw an exception

description The server encountered an internal error that prevented it from fulfilling this request.

exception

I think this error means that the framework fails to load DelegatingFilterProxy bean and to delegate it to the application context.

Where am I wrong? Thanks in advance

EDIT:

After I removed the following line from my betex-controller-servlet.xml, as suggested by dur

<bean id="springSecurityFilterChain" class="org.springframework.web.filter.DelegatingFilterProxy" />

I get the following error trying to open my webapp's root:

  • removed and now I get another error (edited my post). I tried for 2 days to solve it, reading on stackoverflow many similar posts, with poor result. Can you help me? – andy Oct 11 '16 at 17:01
  • First of all thanks for your patience. I already read the reference but still can't fix my error. The spring-security.xml existes in my WAR (I tried exporting and importing in another Eclipse project). I deleted ContextLoaderLister after reading the first answere to [link](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12123516/getting-exception-no-bean-named-springsecurityfilterchain-is-defined) this post. Replacing it I get http status 404 on all URI and the same exception in my question on server's start – andy Oct 11 '16 at 17:48

After double-checking all the configuration file, after reading the documentation, I came to the conclusion that there was nothing wrong. I simply solved downgrading from version 4.1.3 to 4.0.3

please change the url pattern in web xml. That should work.

<filter-mapping>
        <filter-name>springSecurityFilterChain</filter-name>
        <url-pattern>/user/*</url-pattern>
    </filter-mapping>
