Injection of autowired dependencies failed with Spring MVC

Question

I'm trying to make a simple application with SPing but I keep getting this error and I dont understand why.

I have tried everything, even wre-wrote the whole app. Dont even know what the problem could be.

This is the error I get:

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'blogPostController': Injection of autowired dependencies failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Could not autowire field: com.vst.blog.service.BlogService com.vst.blog.controller.BlogPostController.blogServiceImpl; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No qualifying bean of type [com.vst.blog.service.BlogService] found for dependency: expected at least 1 bean which qualifies as autowire candidate for this dependency.

Here is the class that's giving issues(BlogPostController)

package com.vst.blog.controller;

import org.jboss.logging.Logger;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.ModelAttribute;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.ModelAndView;

import com.vst.blog.model.BlogPost;
import com.vst.blog.service.BlogService;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.util.List;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;

@Controller
public class BlogPostControllerImpl {
    
    private static final Logger logger = Logger
            .getLogger(BlogPostControllerImpl.class);   
    
    @Autowired
    BlogService blogServiceImpl;
    
    BlogPostControllerImpl(){}
    
    @RequestMapping(value= "/", method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public ModelAndView index() {
        return new ModelAndView("redirect:/web-inf/pages/index.jsp");
    }
    
    
    @RequestMapping(value = "/loadPosts")
    public ModelAndView listPosts(ModelAndView model) throws IOException {
        List<BlogPost> listPosts = blogServiceImpl.selectBlogPostS();
        model.addObject("listPosts", listPosts);
        model.setViewName("post");
        return model;   
    }
    
    @RequestMapping(value = "/newPost", method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public ModelAndView newPost(ModelAndView model) {
        BlogPost post = new BlogPost();
        model.addObject("post", post);
        model.setViewName("post_form");
        return model;
    }
    
    @RequestMapping(value = "/savePost", method = RequestMethod.POST)
    public ModelAndView savePost(@ModelAttribute BlogPost post) throws SQLException {
        if (post.getBlog_id() == 0) { 
            blogServiceImpl.insertBlogPost(post);
        } else {
            blogServiceImpl.updateBlogPost(post);
        }
        return new ModelAndView("redirect:/loadAlbums");
    }
    
    @RequestMapping(value = "/editPost", method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public ModelAndView editPost(HttpServletRequest request) {
        int postId = Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("blog_id"));
        BlogPost post = blogServiceImpl.selectBlogPostById(postId);
        ModelAndView model = new ModelAndView("post_form");
        model.addObject("post", post);
        return model;
    }
    
    @RequestMapping(value = "/deletePost", method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public ModelAndView deletePost(HttpServletRequest request) throws SQLException {
        int postId = Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("blog_id"));
        blogServiceImpl.deleteBlogPost(postId);
        return new ModelAndView("redirect:/loadPosts");
    }

}

This is the class interface.

package com.vst.blog.service;

import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.util.List;

import org.springframework.stereotype.Repository;

import com.vst.blog.model.BlogPost;

public interface BlogService {

    public void insertBlogPost(BlogPost post) throws SQLException;

    public BlogPost selectBlogPostById(int id);

    public List<BlogPost> selectBlogPostS();

    public void deleteBlogPost(int id) throws SQLException;
    
    public void updateBlogPost(BlogPost post) throws SQLException;
}

And here is the implementation of it:

package com.vst.blog.service;

import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.util.List;

import javax.transaction.Transactional;

import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Service;

import com.vst.blog.dao.BlogPostDao;
import com.vst.blog.dao.BlogPostDaoImpl;
import com.vst.blog.dao.BlogPostDaoImpl;
import com.vst.blog.model.BlogPost;

@Service
@Transactional
public class BlogServiceImpl implements BlogService {
    
    @Autowired
    private BlogPostDao postDao;
    
    public BlogServiceImpl () {
        //postDao = new BlogPostDaoImpl();
    }


    public void insertBlogPost(BlogPost post) throws SQLException {
        postDao.insertBlogPost(post);
    }

    public BlogPost selectBlogPostById(int id) {
        return postDao.selectBlogPostById(id);
    }

    public List<BlogPost> selectBlogPostS() {
        return postDao.selectBlogPostS();
    }


    public void deleteBlogPost(int id) throws SQLException {
        postDao.deleteBlogPost(id);
    }

    public void updateBlogPost(BlogPost post) throws SQLException{
        postDao.updateBlogPost(post);
    }

}

This is DaoImpl

package com.vst.blog.dao;

import java.util.List;

import javax.transaction.Transactional;

import org.hibernate.SessionFactory;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Repository;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Service;

import com.vst.blog.model.BlogPost;

@Service
@Transactional
public class BlogPostDaoImpl implements BlogPostDao {
    
    public BlogPostDaoImpl () {}

    @Autowired
    private SessionFactory sessionFactory;
    
    public void insertBlogPost(BlogPost post) {
        sessionFactory.getCurrentSession().saveOrUpdate(post);

    }

    public BlogPost selectBlogPostById(int id) {
        
        return (BlogPost) sessionFactory.getCurrentSession().get(
                BlogPost.class, id);
        

    }

    @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
    public List<BlogPost> selectBlogPostS() {
        
        return sessionFactory.getCurrentSession().createQuery("from blog")
                .list();

    }


    public void deleteBlogPost(int id)  {
        BlogPost post = (BlogPost) sessionFactory.getCurrentSession().load(
                BlogPost.class, id);
        if (null != post) {
            this.sessionFactory.getCurrentSession().delete(post);
        }
        

    }


    public BlogPost updateBlogPost(BlogPost post)  {
        sessionFactory.getCurrentSession().update(post);
        return post;

    }

}

And here is its interface

package com.vst.blog.dao;

import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.util.List;

import org.springframework.stereotype.Repository;

import com.vst.blog.model.*;

@Repository
public interface BlogPostDao {

    public void insertBlogPost(BlogPost post) throws SQLException;

    public BlogPost selectBlogPostById(int id);

    public List<BlogPost> selectBlogPostS();

    public void deleteBlogPost(int id) throws SQLException;
    
    public BlogPost updateBlogPost(BlogPost post) throws SQLException;
    
}

Answer 1

Here some tips to detect this rare errors related to:

Injection of autowired dependencies failed

• Use just one scan:

    <context:component-scan base-package="com.VST" />

Instead

    <context:component-scan base-package="com.VST.blog.service" />
    <context:component-scan base-package="com.VST.blog.controller" />
    <context:component-scan base-package="com.VST.blog.dao" />

• validate that all your spring beans are in this package or child of it:

  com.VST

• create an empty class with some method inside of your base package com.vst and try to autowire it. This could reveal that not even a simple empty autowire works!!

• Remove "impl" from autowired clases. In your example, change this

BlogService blogServiceImpl; 

to

BlogService blogService;

in your BlogPostControllerImpl

---

Another tips

• don't use uppercase in packages
• use spring boot :D
