SEVERE: Allocate exception for servlet [dispatcher] org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException:

Question

I have expanda.js. I am calling this dao in my formcontroller.java file but I get the following error.

I guess I need to define DAO as a bean. How can I do this in the SpringWebConfig.java file?

I do not have much control over spring, sorry

Console Error:

Annotate `ExpDao` with `@Component` or `@Service`. – Matt Jan 01 '21 at 17:54 — Matt, Jan 01 '21 at 17:54

Hello Esma and welcome to stackoverflow.

Since you declared explecitely your bean of type ExpDao with @Bean annotation in the SpringWebConfig.js, The bean registred in the spring context is expenceDao which is the same method name in this code section:

 @Bean 
public ExpDao expenceDao() {
    ExpDao exp = new ExpDao();
    exp.setTemplate(com.esma.dao.ExpDao.class);
    return exp;
}

So Spring container will create and register a bean of type ExpDao with name (or id ) expenceDao (which is the name of the method expenceDao()

and then you ask spring with this section of code to inject a bean with name expDao which is not found.

    @Controller
    public class FormController {

     @Autowired
     ExpDao dao;
    // the rest of the code 
    }

So spring will return a NoSuchBeanDefinitionException because it didn't found a bean with name expDao.

In order to work, you can just change the method name expenceDao() to expDao() in SpringWebConfig.java file in order that spring create the bean with name expDao and not expenceDao.

Thanks.

Thank you very much, this answer helped for me. – Esma Haber Jan 02 '21 at 21:56 — Esma Haber, Jan 02 '21 at 21:56
