        try{

            List <LnkConnectionResponse> connResponse = new ArrayList <LnkConnectionResponse> ();


            log.info ("before xml resource");

            ApplicationContext context = new FileSystemXmlApplicationContext("M:/My Documents/workspace-sts-3.7.0.RELEASE/LDODashBoard/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/mvc-database.xml");

            log.info ("before get bean");
            LnkConnectionWrapper linkConnectionArray = (LnkConnectionWrapper)context.getBean("linkConnectionArray");

Answer 1

If you look at the log your problem is the FileNotFoundException.

java.io.FileNotFoundException: M:\My Documents\workspace-sts-3.7.0.RELEASE\LDODashBoard\src\main\webapp\WEB-INF\mvc-database.xml (The system cannot find the path specified)

You need to ensure you are properly referencing the file in your web application as well as making sure its is in the correct location.
