I have included DelegatingFilterProxy filter in web.xml. My spring-security.xml is

<user-service>

</beans:beans>
Please help. As far as I think it has to do with the spring-security xsd version but I am not able to resolve the issue. I am using 3.0.5 version jars.

Answer 1

You have typo - it should be <authentication-provider>:
<authentication-manager>
<authentication-provider>
<user-service>
<user name="admin" password="admin" authorities="ROLE_USER" />
</user-service>
</authentication-provider>
</authentication-manager>
See the error message, it expects one of two possibilites which are listed there:
Invalid content was found starting with element 'authetication-provider'. One of '{"http://www.springframework.org/schema/security":authe n tication-provider, "http://www.springframework.org/schema/security":ldap-authentication-provider}' is expected.
