Spring config not found

I have the following in my web.xml:

<context-param>
    <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
    <param-value>classpath:applicationContext-*.xml</param-value>
</context-param>

I have 2 files:

When deploying the app, I get a

No matching bean of type [AServiceBean] found for dependency: expected at least 1 bean which qualifies as autowire candidate for this dependency.

Seems like the applicationContext-service.xml is not found. If I copy it next to the web.xml, it works fine. I can't figure out why this happens.

The server is a Tomcat 6.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

EDIT

For clarification: if I use

<param-value>
    classpath:applicationContext-web.xml,
    classpath:applicationContext-service.xml
</param-value>

the app deploys without any issue, so it's just a matter of finding (or not finding) the applicationContext-service.xml

You need to place your config files into the classpath. 

WEB-INF/classess  is the directory you need to place your configuration files
classpath:applicationContext-*.xml will then work

or sth similar to this to keep them in one place

WEB-INF/classes/spring   
classpath:spring/applicationContext-*.xml

applicationContext-service.xml : You dont need to copy this one if it is already in the jar file

Sample main-config.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
    xmlns:aop="http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop" xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
    xmlns:jee="http://www.springframework.org/schema/jee" xmlns:tx="http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx"

<import resource="classpath:spring/config1.xml" />
<import resource="classpath:spring/config2.xml" />
.
.
<import resource="classpath:spring/configN.xml" />


</beans>

Try to use classpath*:applicationContext-*.xml (there is asterisk before the colon).

However it may not work, e.g. JBoss has problems, to make it work you need use some special class loader from jboss.

Also, there are some problems using patterns in root.

Anyway I would recommend avoid patterns, better to make an applicationContext.xml with two explicit import statements.
