Re: Spring Exception During First Startup of Jahia

Hi Evan,

I double-checked the code to make sure, but you MUST have another error 
BEFORE this one in your output. Because the code in question does this :

        try {
            String[] paths = {"file:" + springPath + 
"/applicationcontext-*.xml"};
            context = new FileSystemXmlApplicationContext(paths, true, 
parentAppContext);
        } catch (Throwable e) {
            logger.error("Cannot load spring initialisation file ",e);
            String[] paths = {"spring/applicationContext*.xml"};
            context = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext(paths, true, 
parentAppContext); <--- line 77 of SpringContextSingleton in which the 
exception is raised.
        }

So if you are in the catch, it means you already had an error with the 
main configuration. This is usually the source of your problem. I 
suggest you have a look at that, or post the complete console output 
since Tomcat startup here so that we can have a look at it. Basically 
look for a line containing "Cannot load spring initialisation file".

  Serge Huber.
