Why is my spring bean which is injected properly on server start up, null when I post my form to the controller?

Why is my spring bean (loginInfoDAO) which is injected properly on server start up, null when I post my form to the controller? I have stepped through the setters on start up and they are injecting properly. However, I run the get method and then the post method and the values that were injected are null. Why would this happen?

Controller

    @Controller
    @RequestMapping("/login")
    public class LoginController extends BaseController{

    private LoginInfoDAO loginInfoDAO;

    public void setLoginInfoDAO(LoginInfoDAO loginInfoDAO) {
    this.loginInfoDAO = loginInfoDAO;
    }

    @RequestMapping(method=RequestMethod.GET)
    public ModelAndView getLogin(@ModelAttribute("user") final User ur) {
        ModelAndView mav = new ModelAndView("/login/login");
        return mav;
    }

        @RequestMapping(method=RequestMethod.POST)
    public ModelAndView login(@ModelAttribute("user") final User ur) {

        loginInfoDAO.login(ur);
        ModelAndView mav = new ModelAndView();
        return mav;
    }

    }

Add @Autowired for loginInfoDAO since you are using context:annotation-config. 

@Autowired
private LoginInfoDAO loginInfoDAO;

Then remove the following entries from your context xml (since they are driven with the annotation here).

   <bean id="myLoginInfoDAO" class="com.projectname.dao.LoginInfoDAOImpl">
        <property name="sessionFactory" ref="sessionFactory"/>
    </bean>

    <bean name="/login" class="com.projectname.controllers.LoginController" >
        <property name="loginInfoDAO" ref="myLoginInfoDAO" />
    </bean>

This should get you going.
