nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException

You should autowire interface AbstractManager instead of class MailManager.
If you have different implemetations of AbstractManager you can write @Component("mailService") and then @Autowired @Qualifier("mailService") combination to autowire specific class.

This is due to the fact that Spring creates and uses proxy objects based on the interfaces.

I've started my project by creating entities, services and JUnit tests for services using Spring and Hibernate. All of this works great. Then I've added spring-mvc to make this web application using many different step-by-step tutorials, but when I'm trying to make Controller with @Autowired annotation, I'm getting errors from Glassfish during deployment. I guess that for some reason Spring doesn't see my services, but after many attempts I still can't handle it.

Tests for services with

@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class) @ContextConfiguration(locations = {"classpath:/beans.xml"})

and

@Autowired
MailManager mailManager;

works properly.

Controllers without @Autowired too, I can open my project in web browser without trouble.

Sorry for a lot of code, but I don't know what can cause that error anymore.

Added

I've created the interface:

@Component
public interface IMailManager {

added implements:

@Component
@Transactional public class MailManager extends AbstractManager implements IMailManager {

and changed autowired:

@Autowired
public IMailManager mailManager;

But it still throws errors (also when I've tried with @Qualifier)

..Could not autowire field: public pl.com.radzikowski.webmail.service.IMailManager pl.com.radzikowski.webmail.controller.HomeController.mailManager...

I've tried with different combinations of @Component and @Transactional too.

Shouldn't I include beans.xml in web.xml somehow?

 

 

 

You should autowire interface AbstractManager instead of class MailManager. If you have different implemetations of AbstractManager you can write @Component("mailService") and then @Autowired @Qualifier("mailService") combination to autowire specific class.

This is due to the fact that Spring creates and uses proxy objects based on the interfaces.

4.9.2 @Autowired

As expected, you can apply the @Autowired annotation to "traditional" setter methods:

public class SimpleMovieLister {

    private MovieFinder movieFinder;

    @Autowired
    public void setMovieFinder(MovieFinder movieFinder) {
        this.movieFinder = movieFinder; } // ... }

	Note
	JSR 330’s @Inject annotation can be used in place of Spring’s @Autowired annotation in the examples below. See here for more details

You can also apply the annotation to methods with arbitrary names and/or multiple arguments:

public class MovieRecommender {

    private MovieCatalog movieCatalog;

    private CustomerPreferenceDao customerPreferenceDao;

    @Autowired
    public void prepare(MovieCatalog movieCatalog, CustomerPreferenceDao customerPreferenceDao) { this.movieCatalog = movieCatalog; this.customerPreferenceDao = customerPreferenceDao; } // ... }

You can apply @Autowired to constructors and fields:

public class MovieRecommender {

    @Autowired
    private MovieCatalog movieCatalog;

    private CustomerPreferenceDao customerPreferenceDao;

    @Autowired
    public MovieRecommender(CustomerPreferenceDao customerPreferenceDao) {
        this.customerPreferenceDao = customerPreferenceDao; } // ... }

It is also possible to provide all beans of a particular type from the ApplicationContext by adding the annotation to a field or method that expects an array of that type:

public class MovieRecommender {

    @Autowired
    private MovieCatalog[] movieCatalogs;

    // ...

}

The same applies for typed collections:

public class MovieRecommender {

    private Set<MovieCatalog> movieCatalogs;

    @Autowired
    public void setMovieCatalogs(Set<MovieCatalog> movieCatalogs) {
        this.movieCatalogs = movieCatalogs; } // ... }

	Tip
	Your beans can implement the org.springframework.core.Ordered interface or use the the @Order annotation if you want items in the array or list to be sorted into a specific order.

Even typed Maps can be autowired as long as the expected key type is String. The Map values will contain all beans of the expected type, and the keys will contain the corresponding bean names:

public class MovieRecommender {

    private Map<String, MovieCatalog> movieCatalogs;

    @Autowired
    public void setMovieCatalogs(Map<String, MovieCatalog> movieCatalogs) {
        this.movieCatalogs = movieCatalogs; } // ... }

By default, the autowiring fails whenever zero candidate beans are available; the default behavior is to treat annotated methods, constructors, and fields as indicatingrequired dependencies. This behavior can be changed as demonstrated below.

public class SimpleMovieLister {

    private MovieFinder movieFinder;

    @Autowired(required=false)
    public void setMovieFinder(MovieFinder movieFinder) {
        this.movieFinder = movieFinder; } // ... }

Note

Only one annotated constructor per-class can be marked as required, but multiple non-required constructors can be annotated. In that case, each is considered among the candidates and Spring uses the greediest constructor whose dependencies can be satisfied, that is the constructor that has the largest number of arguments. @Autowired's required attribute is recommended over the @Required annotation. The required attribute indicates that the property is not required for autowiring purposes, the property is ignored if it cannot be autowired. @Required, on the other hand, is stronger in that it enforces the property that was set by any means supported by the container. If no value is injected, a corresponding exception is raised.

You can also use @Autowired for interfaces that are well-known resolvable dependencies: BeanFactory, ApplicationContext, Environment, ResourceLoader,ApplicationEventPublisher, and MessageSource. These interfaces and their extended interfaces, such as ConfigurableApplicationContext orResourcePatternResolver, are automatically resolved, with no special setup necessary.

public class MovieRecommender {

    @Autowired
    private ApplicationContext context;

    public MovieRecommender() {
    }

    // ...

}

Note

@Autowired, @Inject, @Resource, and @Value annotations are handled by a Spring BeanPostProcessor implementations which in turn means that youcannot apply these annotations within your own BeanPostProcessor or BeanFactoryPostProcessor types (if any). These types must be wired upexplicitly via XML or using a Spring @Bean method. http://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/4.0.x/spring-framework-reference/html/beans.html#beans-autowired-annotation
