1. 问题描述

本文探讨Spring开发中最常见的配置问题之一:无法找到Spring命名空间处理器。多数情况下,这表示项目classpath中缺少某个特定的Spring jar包。下面我们梳理几种常见的模式缺失场景及其对应的依赖解决方案。

2. http://www.springframework.org/schema/security

实践中最常遇到的问题是安全命名空间不可用:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans:beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/security" 
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
    xmlns:beans="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
    xsi:schemaLocation="
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/security 
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/security/spring-security-3.2.xsd
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans 
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-4.1.xsd">

</beans:beans>

会抛出以下异常:

org.springframework.beans.factory.parsing.BeanDefinitionParsingException: 
Configuration problem: 
Unable to locate Spring NamespaceHandler for XML schema namespace 
[http://www.springframework.org/schema/security]
Offending resource: class path resource [securityConfig.xml]

解决方案:添加spring-security-config依赖

<dependency> 
   <groupId>org.springframework.security</groupId>
   <artifactId>spring-security-config</artifactId>
   <version>3.2.5.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

这样会将SecurityNamespaceHandler加入classpath,使其能够解析安全命名空间元素。完整的Spring Security Maven配置可参考我的Maven教程

3. http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop

当使用aop命名空间却缺少对应库时会出现类似问题:

<beans 
    xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" 
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
    xmlns:aop="http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop"
    xsi:schemaLocation="
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans 
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-4.1.xsd
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop/spring-aop-4.1.xsd">

</beans>

异常信息:

org.springframework.beans.factory.parsing.BeanDefinitionParsingException: 
Configuration problem: 
Unable to locate Spring NamespaceHandler for XML schema namespace 
[http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop]
Offending resource: ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/webConfig.xml]

解决方案:添加spring-aop依赖

<dependency>
   <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
   <artifactId>spring-aop</artifactId>
   <version>4.1.0.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

添加后AopNamespaceHandler将出现在classpath中。

4. http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx

使用事务命名空间(配置事务语义的小型实用命名空间)时:

<beans 
    xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" 
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
    xmlns:tx="http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx"
    xsi:schemaLocation="
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans 
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-4.1.xsd
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx/spring-tx-4.1.xsd">

</beans>

若缺少对应jar会抛出:

org.springframework.beans.factory.parsing.BeanDefinitionParsingException: 
Configuration problem: 
Unable to locate Spring NamespaceHandler for XML schema namespace
[http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx]
Offending resource: class path resource [daoConfig.xml]

解决方案:添加spring-tx依赖

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-tx</artifactId>
    <version>4.1.0.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

添加后TxNamespaceHandler将可用,支持XML和注解式声明事务管理。

5. http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc

当使用mvc命名空间时:

<beans 
    xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" 
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
    xmlns:tx="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc"
    xsi:schemaLocation="
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans 
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-4.1.xsd
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc/spring-mvc-4.1.xsd">

</beans>

缺失依赖会导致:

org.springframework.beans.factory.parsing.BeanDefinitionParsingException: 
Configuration problem: 
Unable to locate Spring NamespaceHandler for XML schema namespace
[http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc]
Offending resource: class path resource [webConfig.xml]

解决方案:添加spring-webmvc依赖

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-webmvc</artifactId>
    <version>4.1.0.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

添加后MvcNamespaceHandler将加入classpath,支持通过命名空间配置MVC语义。

6. 总结

⚠️ 重要提醒:若使用Eclipse管理Web服务器部署,请确保项目的Deployment Assembly配置正确——即Maven依赖确实在部署时被包含在classpath中。
